| Christina Lake has two fun and exciting golf courses. The Christina Lake Golf and Country Club, is an 18 hole championship course, rated one of the top 25 in British Columbia. Designed by the renowned golf course architect Les Furber, the course has been open since 1986, and offers 6685 yards of exciting and challenging golf. It is situated along the picturesque Kettle River with beautiful scenery and quiet surroundings and features three water challenge ponds and unique black sand bunkers. There is also a driving range, a pro shop and club house, complete with a full 110 seat restaurant, patio and banquet facility that overlook the meticulous greens and lush fairways. Just down the road is the 9 hole Cascade Par 3 Golf Course, the only one of its kind in the Kootenay-Boundary area. This well-maintained public course boasts large greens, testing elevation changes, strategically placed water hazards and bunkers, a putting green, pro shop and excellent dining at the Dueling Oaks restaurant, by reservation only. Its beautiful and quiet setting makes a wonderful outing for the whole family. Both courses are located only a couple of minutes from Christina Lake, just north of the Canada - U.S. border. When driving from Christina Lake, turn left at the junction of Highway 3 and Highway 395 (to the U.S.) and follow the signs. For youngsters and the young at heart, Christina Lake also offers two mini-golf courses. One is located next to the Lakeside General Store, and the other is at Christina Pines Campground. |
