Testimonials
"I have been to several weddings in my lifetime, and this
weekend was the best wedding reception that i have been to.
Gallagher's Canyon is not only one of the
most beautiful that i have seen, the staff is quite
incredible! [Leah Zimmerman and Dominique Dooley] who
coordinated the evening were spectacular. It isn't very often
that you get to experience people that i believe truly love their
job. Whenever i had a question, they had an immediate answer...
Your facility showed each and every guest what the meaning of
customer service is. Even the [Team Members] who were
clearing tables and serving drinks and cake, went above and beyond
ensuring everyone was happy... I have several friends and
family in the Okanagan/Kelowna area, and I am going to make
sure that every one of them hears about this experience.
My hat goes off to all of you..."
Nick Patrignani (Adams/Hillary wedding, June 2010)
"I wanted to thank you and the staff at
Furry Creek for a great Family Day of
golf. We all had an excellent day, especially our son Zackary,
in part due to the friendly reception from the staff members at
Furry Creek. Everyone from the pro-shop to the CPGA
Professional staff and our BBQ chef on practice green made us feel
welcome and added to our spectacular day."
Scott W., Vancouver BC (re: Family Golf Day 2009)
"
Nicklaus North continues to thrive by providing
friendly, courteous service and a well-groomed layout. Just two of
the reasons the course continually places comfortably in
Canada’s Top 100 Golf Courses... However, beyond the
awards, the signature architect, and the surreal setting is
something more impressive, and to be honest something a bit
unexpected. Authenticity. There is a sense of commitment to golf
and a genuine care that is taken for the individuals who come to
play, even though it might knowingly be only once in their
lifetime. It’s an attribute surely to be admired, one
that is worth coming back for, and one that unfortunately many
resorts seem to lack."
Brett Hitchens, GolfWRX.com
"I want to pass on my sincere thanks as well as give your staff
a huge vote of praise and kudos - everyone we came in contact with,
including the Pro Shop staff, the on course people and the
Restaurant staff, was very pleasant and helpful. Combine this with
the course (
Nicklaus North) being in terrific shape, we had a
wonderful day. Again many thanks, and please pass on our sincere
appreciation to your staff."
Paul Knickerbocker, Vision 2000 Travel Group
"Thank you so much for all your organization with the Shire
Group. We had a great experience and the group enjoyed the
course (

"I just returned from a wonderful week in Whistler. I
participated in the PNWLE Golf Tournament at
Nicklaus North. I have to say that this was a
wonderful experience. All of the staff and the facility were
outstanding. Please pass on my grateful thank you to all of your
staff, they truly made the trip a most memorable event."
Russ Whitcomb, PNWLE Tournament 2006
"On behalf of the Hibernian Golf Club - to all the staff at
Nicklaus North and GolfBC - it was an exceptional
day of golf. First class all the way. Every staff member
has been taught a special approach to customer service that without
a doubt had all of our members talking about it. And coming to
me to confirm we were booked for 2007 - there was no stone left
unturned - see you next year!"
Wayne Zaiser, Hiberinian Golf Tournament 2006
"Earlier this month my wife and I enjoyed playing some golf at a
number of your courses (
Olympic View, Arbutus Ridge and Furry Creek) and
the experience was simply first class. The staff at all locations
were friendly and most helpful and the courses were very well
groomed and maintained, providing the quality of golf that made our
trip from Ontario more than worthwhile. We were particularly
pleased with the treatment that we received at Furry Creek and
having the camera with us during the round we will not soon forget
the beauty (and challenge) of the course. Our thanks to all,
including GolfBC, for making our visit to the west coast everything
we planned on."
Bob & Chris Dixon, Ottawa, Ontario
"Thank you very much for organizing a wonderful evening (at
Mayfair Lakes)! The Social Committee received
many compliments on the entrees and to our gracious attendee Joe
and bartender Cameron. Our compliments to the kitchen staff for
providing an excellent buffet. I've organized a Christmas party at
this venue a few years ago and I must say, the service and
quality of the Catering Team at Mayfair Lakes has improved
immensely. Thanks to you and your colleagues for making our evening
a memorable occasion."

raising and everybody raved about the course and dinner especially
