Creston Golf Club
The Creston Valley Golf Club is known as one of the finest competitive venues in golf and has carried a storied history since its inception in 1954. It is surrounded by farmlands and forest. The course is playable for every level of golfer, from novice to expert. With short distances between greens and tees it is a great walking course, offering brisk exercise with gradually changing elevation on both nines. Power carts are also available.
With rolling terrain and fast, undulating greens it often requires that you use every club in your bag. Elevation changes put club selection and shot-making at a premium and the rural setting guarantees the occasional visit by deer, elk, coyotes, hawks, heron, eagles, vultures, osprey, ducks, turtles and other fauna.
Professionally designed and immaculately maintained, this wonderful facility is playable from a number of tees ranging from 5300 to 6500 yards, but don’t let the length fool you, the club has hosted five of the most prestigious BC golf championships. The Creston golf course offers a very enjoyable and challenging test of your skills!

A History of Creston
The Creston Golf Club was founded in 1954, when a group of local citizens formed a society, and purchased 100 acres of previously logged Crown land for $265. Alan Staples, the first president said, “That may not sound like much, but we had a hell of a time raising the money”. That about sums up the gradual development of the Creston Club, heavy on volunteerism, with much support from the community; accomplishing minor miracles with local ingenuity and limited resources.
Local engineer Vaughan Mosher donated his time to design the original course and many volunteers helped build 9 holes, carved out of the bush, with sand greens, completely ready for play in 1962.
It was a parched affair, with rock hard clay fairways (and lots of real rocks) until, in 1960, the Club built a reservoir to catch overflow water from the Lister Water Works. The remains of that reservoir can be seen on the left side of #11 (#3 in the original design). Local teens of the day recall skinny dipping in the shallow warm water on hot August afternoons, when no one was about.
Grass greens were built in 1970-71. Holes #2,3,7,15,&16 still play on these original grass greens.
In 1982 the new clubhouse was built with 95% volunteer labor.
A professionally designed expansion to 18 holes happened in 1989-91, with a further re-design of holes #8 and #9 in 2006.
After many previous attempts to secure an adequate water supply, a major new system to the Goat River was completed in 2003, again with a great deal of local expertise and volunteer help.
As a visitor you may look forward to improvements every time you come to play.
