Columbia Lake is approximately 9 miles long and 1 1/2 miles wide and is the headwaters of the Columbia River. Clear mountain streams and fresh underground sprigs provide the crystalline water that gives the lake its beautiful blue hue. Because a large portion of the land around the lake is reserved by crown for park and game reserve, the waters have never had the over use seen on some other lakes. Columbia Lake's relatively shallow depth allows the lake to warm up in the summer and make ideal for water sports such as sailing, windsurfing, fishing and swimming. The lack of other users ensures that you will have a relaxing and refreshing time "down by the water".
