Overview:
Kids big and small, young and old, will love to get away from it all and play in the imaginary and wonderful world of Giggle Ridge Adventure Golf at Cultus Lake Adventure Park. It's Adventure Golf unlike any you've seen before! Make your way through the abandoned but recently rediscovered mountain lumber camp known as Giggle Ridge. Discover it for yourself at Cultus Lake and have an Adventure like none other!
Thoughts:
A great place to spend a couple of hours while out at the lake. If you come for a picnic at the main beach or visited the waterslides for the day it is a nice way to finish off your visit. Although not a lot of rides there is a couple for kids of all ages including bumper boats and the Giggle Ridge Adventure Golf. Prices are quite low for the rids and the golf is not too bad either.
As a fairly new place it is very clean and has a cartoon-ish theme to it. Not too big but great for little kids and good for older ones as well.
Price:
Admission is free
Tickets are $1.50/ea and most rides are 1 or 2 tickets
Mini Golf is $9
Combo and Discount packs are available
*waterslide tickets have a coupon for mini golf on the backs (buy 1 get one free I believe)
Pros:
Good for all kids and not so big you need to spend the day there to see and do everything. Nice and clean, fun theme for the kids. Rides for kids and adults. Quite cheap if you do not have a big family.
Cons:
Not very many rides.

Cultus Lake Park: Cultus Lake
Overview:
Many recreational activities can be enjoyed in the area, from boating, fishing and swimming, to picnicking, playground and walking.
Thoughts:
Although a long ways out this is a great way to spend the day at the lake. The park is large and offers a good variety of things to do. The swimming area is very large with a big dock and shallow waters. Unfortunately the "beach" is a bit rocky and gets worse in the water. Because of the shallow waters though it is quite warm at this end of the lake. Plenty of parking in the 2 main lots, unfortunately it is pay parking ($6/day). Lots of picnic tables around both on the beach area and the grass and a large playground for children of all ages.
Boat rentals are close by (http://www.mainbeachboats.com) as are large bathrooms, a concession stand and even a market on Saturdays. Parking lot B is shared with the Cultus Lake Adventure Park giving you a change of scenery if needed and the Cultus Lake Waterslides are just across the street.
Pros:
Warm waters and plenty of things to do to keep you busy for the day.
Cons:
A far drive for anyone not in Abbotsford and Chilliwack areas. The beaches are a bit rocky.

Cultus Lake Water Park
Overview:
When looking for watersliding and water parks in Vancouver, look no further than Cultus Lake Waterpark.
Cultus Lake Waterpark is BC's biggest and best Waterpark. Our waterslides are supervised by quality-trained water safety staff. And the facility and attractions are constantly maintained, upgraded, and expanded providing something new for every guest and every visit. Top priority is always given to maintaining customer satisfaction as a safe, clean, and fun environment. Whether you are on vacation or just taking a much needed break, visit Cultus Lake Waterpark and experience the ultimate summer recreational activity.
Thoughts:
The variety of slides was great with tube slides, regular slides and speciality slides. Kids had plenty of options from spray parks, water adventure playground, slides, and hot tub for kids. Getting there early is definitely key, not for a place to sit because there is plenty of that, but to get in a few slides before the crowds show up. The slides were fun but the lines got a bit long later in the day.

The slides were fun but the lines got a bit long later in the day.
You are able to take your kids down the main slides and they can go down the tube rides if they are over 36" tall. Some of the other larger slides though required them to be 48".
The free life jackets helped out as well keeping our 2 year old feeling safe when in the deeper water at the bottom of the slides.
This is a definite must see if you like water activities and are in the area.
Price:
| Type | Full Day | Twilight (starts 4 hrs. prior to closing) |
| 48″ and Above | $29.00 (incl. tax) | $20.00 (incl. tax) |
| Under 48″ tall | $20.00 (incl. tax) | $14.00 (incl. tax) |
| Seniors(60+) | $20.00 (incl. tax) | $14.00 (incl. tax) |
Pros:
Lots of slides and lots for kids to do. Free life jackets and plenty of space to put your towels down.
Cons:
When it gets busy line ups take a while, and because of its popularity it will get busy.

Cultus Lake
Cultus Lake is a piece of Paradise, surrounded by exquisite beaches and breathtaking mountain views.
Activities:
Although you are limited to water sports and golf, people always love to visit a nice beach that has other activities nearby. A variety of golf courses from a full length course to mini golf and even an 18 hole putting course gives golfers of all ages a challenge.
3.5/5
Events:
Not a lot of public or community events takes place here. A yearly wake board competition at he lake and triathlon are a couple of the larger but there is not a lot of events taking place here.
1.5/5
View:
Nestled in the Columbia Valley you will find great views of the mountains and forest. As well, like the name says, there is a beautiful lake right at your fingertips. Although a little ways out of the city, the large amount of tourists and residence keep mos tof the wildlife at bay.
3.5/5
Accommodations:
Plenty of camping here, either in tent, RV or cabin. Unfortunately there is not a big selections of hotels.
2/5
Dinning & Shopping:
Again, due to the size of the place you are very limited with your dining and shopping selection. It is a very touristy place and therefore you will not find much shopping other than some local gift stores.
2/5
Visit-ability:
This is a great place to spend a few days, especially if you want to spend some time enjoying some of the attractions and views that Cultus Lake has to offer.
4/5
Total Rating: 16.5/30
Thoughts:
I like it here, although I am biased towards nice summer locations with a lake and beach. The roads can be quite busy during peak seasons as you are limited to only 1 way in and out.
