"If you're wondering how Creston, BC came to be what it is today, you've come to the right place. From the settler era to the people building our communities today - if you've got questions, we've got answers.We can explain how Creston got its wacky time zone, about the steamship that became a tractor sort of, the first airplane to land in Creston, and the teacher who refused to be fired. There's "The Great Railway Race" and the "Great Creston Bank Robbery." And even 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. There's no time like the present to discover the past."

Wow! What a cool and well put together place to learn about Creston and area’s history. I love supporting little museums like this! Leave a good donation in the cash register when you go-these places run on donations!! Great little museum with a gift shop.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
This is a cool place to take the kids while you're in Creston. It's a look back in time and how the people that called this place home survived and the ways they made their living. The old miners tunnels, railroad and lumber machinery is mind boggling to think this is all they had and the ingenuity that they had to build these things. Now look at how modern technology has advanced from where it began. As always leave it better than you found it and enjoy .
We had a great visit to the Creston Museum, there are lots of well setup displays inside and outside the facility. They have a number of local treasures for you to explore. Local or a visitor take the time to stop in. We also had an excellent tour host as well.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNot sure
Nice relaxed stroll thru the exhibits. Tammy took the time to elaborate on some of the items. The brass band was an added bonus
For a small town museum this was phenomenal. Really enjoyed the tour! Great location as well
Friendly and knowledgeable staff. One young lady delayed her lunch to interact and play educational games with our kids. My boys also loved the model trains on the upper floor which is a replica of Creston during the railroad era. The museum captured the history of Creston and area very well. There's an extensive collection of farming equipment. The grounds are well maintained, including a heirloom garden. Overall, a great place right off of the main road to spend a hour or two. Admission price is also very reasonable.
Wonderful museum. If in Creston, you need to visit this.
Beautiful little museum. Well crafted displays and grounds, fun activities to get the kids interested in history. Highly recommend this museum to locals and visitors.
Great local museum and programs in the summer. We did the tours on orchards and such. Was so fun. Got fruit in them. Kids enjoyed it.
Cute little museum. Very well organized!
