- llheimEllensburg, WA138 contributionsTexas Creek Campground is beautiful. The spacious and level sites are gravel that's raked between users and separated from each other with plants and trees so they all feel private. What I expected to be a pit toilet outhouse was actual an immaculately clean flush toilet and sink. There's also a restroom with showers. They have various beaches with a separate beach for dogs. We camped one night with our happy, but wet dog who LOVED the dog beach. Our only regret was that we only had reservations for 1 night. Next time we'll stay longer.Written August 1, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

- ND FVancouver, Canada821 contributionsWhile travelling east on Highway 3 to Nelson, stopped at Christina Lake to stretch our legs and have a picnic lunch. Found Christina Lake Park with plenty of parking. The beach wasn’t crowded and there were picnic tables to sit at. A park warden was present picking up litter and checking on things. Nice sandy beach, crisp clear water and plenty of space for everyone to enjoy. No flush toilets, just you standard outhouse style.Written August 23, 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Kassi Dick3 contributionsThis gallery always has thought-provoking and outstanding installations. There are four galleries to visit and Canadian and Indigenous artists are often showcased here.
I always enjoy the atmosphere and the friendly staff. Plus, I can't help but check out the gift shop. There are beautiful collections of pottery and ceramics, jewelry and books, toys and ornaments.
For residents, there is also an art rental program here that enables you to take home works by local artists for a very reasonable price.Written October 28, 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

But very welcoming, just seems like a place locals like to gather to have their coffee / breakfast in the morning or gather to talk about local events. Staff was friendly and space was very clean. Besides the coffee shop there was also an art gallery that sold some gift ideas.
My kids though when we camped nearby kept wanting to run in and have me take photographs of them on the 3-D floor. They thought it was so cool to look at the photos that appeared as if they were standing on a train bridge or a waterfall.
Well done to a small community for doing something unique and doing it really well. The painting is only on the floor and one wall as you walk into the welcome centre so not a huge space. But it’s big enough to give people the 3-D feeling when they look at their photos.Written September 4, 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Amazing hospitality. This the second best place in Grand Forks after Alphine Taxidermy. Extensive collection of chainsaws and saws going back to the days when they were first invented. There is an awesome mural of the person who constructed the barn. My kids loved the dog. There is a beautiful creek too.Written July 12, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

- davestummySherwood Park, Canada125 contributionsLiving in Christina Lake we often walk up Santa Rosa and take the TCT trail to the kettle river bridge then backtrack.

- AhlumVancouver, Canada479 contributionsTrail head of Cascade Falls on Hwy 395 about 5 min from the turning off from Hwy 3. Walked through two short tunnels to get to see the Falls about 15 min from the trail head. I was not sure I had reached the best viewpoint of the Falls but I was satisfied with what I saw. After the sign at the trail head, nowhere along the trail is signposted.Written September 3, 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- bejoicingeagle hill, ab35 contributionsTook my daughter here to broaden her mind. They had a visual scavenger hunt to help pique her interest. Bring cash for the donation you will want to make, since there is no entry fee. The local history room is fascinating, and the art rental room has lovely art, clearly inspired by nearby nature.Written March 11, 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- MortanahGrand Forks, Canada199 contributionsThis is one of the most family friendly pools I have been at. My kids love coming here. They have all kinds of balls and toys and floaty things to play with. There is a rope swing they can let down if you ask. The sauna is nice and they do have a small weight room. Almost always empty so no worries about waiting for equipment. You can get multi pass punch cards or a seasons pass. You and your family will love it here.Written August 26, 2017This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
