Coy Hill Rest Area offers a few picnic tables and bathroom facilities. If you're passing this way, this is an excellent choice for a picnic stop. Walk up the hill and you will find picnic tables with a sensational view of Columbia Lake with the Rockies as a backdrop. There are lots of well located rest areas along Highway 95, set beside small lakes or viewpoints. This is definitely one of the best.

If you are travelling north to Fairmont Hot Springs, just before crossing the Dutch Creek Bridge you will see an amazing sight: The Dutch Creek Hoodoos. The Hoodoos are about 6 km north of this rest area.

You can visit them HERE.
