Skimmerhorn Winery and Vineyard

Reviewed By EddyGT4

Good BC wine, incredible tapas lunch and service staff that were exceptional. On a beautiful fall day a spur of the moment visit from Cranbrook took us to the visitor's center in downtown Creston where because it had a bistro, we were directed to the winery. We were greeted by April and given a table with a Tuscan like view overlooking the valley. April assisted with the tapas menu, we sampled some of Skimmerhorn's red wines and thoroughly enjoyed a memorable experience.

Beautiful scenery, frogs, turtles, water birds and birds of prey, sometimes moose, deer or elk...great walking trails with tons to explore and learn about nature! Make sure you know what stinging nettle looks like, and avoid touching it, as it does border some parts of the well mowed trails. No matter your skill level and age of wee ones, you can have a beautiful walk identifying all sorts of critters! Well marked trails, long loops or short strolls, if you have kids that need to get out and explore, this is the place for it! Pups welcome, too, but keep them on a leash and please pick up after them. Great advanced trail across tje road, balancing rock trail, as well for the more adventurous...

Creston Museum

We tell great stories. We can explain how Creston got its wacky time zone. We can tell you about the steamship that became a tractor (sort of), the first airplane to land in Creston, and the teacher who refused to be fired. Speaking of "great" stories, there's "The Great Railway Race" and the "Great Creston Bank Robbery." And have you heard the one about the imaginary student in Grade Thirteen? Really, we're not making this up. Why would we? Truth is so much better than fiction. We can even help you tell the greatest story of all: your own. So come on in. After all, there's no time like the present to discover the past.

Found it by surprise. Wonderful time capsule of local history, as well as extensive collection of clothes, tools, farm and industrial machinery, medical equipment, early electrical appliances, furnishings, toys, buildings from 19th & 20th centuries. And a well done large working HO model railroad. The staff are friendly and very helpful. Well worth the stop.
