C	Christine C on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ It was lovely to visit- a nice introduction to understanding the land and critters in the area. Mostly geared at children, I wanted more adult level science. I really liked the walk around the property- I don't think we started in the right direction, but we still saw some cool stuff! A few yellow bellied marmots timed it perfectly as we passed by the 'marmot highway,' and the pond was full of life, too! Some of the trails are steep, and it is all under direct sun while outside, so bring sturdy shoes and a sunhat!

I	Ingrid -Iggy- Kessler on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Lovely site, volunteers/staff and introduction to the species and habitats of the Okanagan Valley (and some stunning viewpoints, too). I highly recommend a visit.
M	Marina Craig on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Awesome views from the hill and loads of educational material. Super friendly staff and always a bunch of kids running around!

S	Sarah K on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Though we visited in the early days of September there was still much to do and learn, in a way it was even better as we had learned a lot more then we probably would have during a busy time. We were helped by Carson, who was so knowledgeable and patient. He toured with us in the room with the mural and answered the many questions we had. And being an animal lover it was great to learn new ways to help conserve and save habitats, learn what habitats were being destroyed, and species that I didn’t even know were local as I’ve never seen them. I honestly recommend checking this place out!
L	Laura Childerson on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Not only is this nature centre an interesting and educational facility in a lovely setting with friendly and helpful staff, they also have a great sense of humour! All of their resident marmots were still hibernating February 2nd (Groundhog Day) and so, rather than disturb them for their weather prediction, they had a stuffy do the honours!
L	Luke Reece on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ What a treat! I was in town visiting the Caravan Farm Theatre and we decided to take a day trip to the Allan Brooks Nature Centre. It was a lovely morning full of marmots, meadowlarks, hawks and more! The staff was incredibly kind and helpful. Highly reccomend a visit if you're in the area!
