Christina Lake is known as a destination summer resort and golf is one of its most popular attractions. Golfers can play an acclaimed championship course as well as a challenging Par-3 executive course.
Christina Lake Golf Club has been hailed as one of the top 25 courses in British Columbia and named one of the best places to play by Golf Digest Magazine. Set on the picturesque Kettle River with background views of the Selkirk and Monashee Mountains, there's a decent chance of spotting a white tail deer and maybe a fawn on this serious nature walk.
Les Furber Design
Les Furber's signature architecture is apparent in every aspect of the 18-hole, 6685-yard course. A selection of three tee boxes gives even high handicapers a good shot. Go for long straight drives off the elevated tee boxes to avoid landing among the ponderosa pines or in one of his strategically placed bunkers – the first black sand traps in Canada. Aim close to the pin to stay out of trouble on tiered greens.
Golf Facilities
Work out the kinks with a bucket of balls on the driving range and sharpen that short game in the practice sand trap and on the practice green. Club and cart rentals are available from the pro shop.
Clubhouse Restaurant
Settle on the patio overlooking the 18th green or find a seat in the airy dining room. The clubhouse restaurant is open for quick bites, hearty breakfasts, an extensive selection of pub fare for lunch and a scaled up dinner menu featuring salmon, steak, ribs and pasta entrees.
Cascade Par 3
A peaceful forest setting surrounded by the round-topped ridges of the Monashee Mountains provides the backdrop for a quick nine holes at Cascade Par 3. The greens are large, but significant elevation changes, tricky water hazards and bunkers make this a worthwhile 2027-yard challenge. Open from April 1 to October 31, check out the summertime night golfing events.
