Canyon Lakes
Swinging bats and golf clubs at Canyon Lakes' parks
The neighborhood of Canyon Lakes wraps around the Canyon Lakes Golf Course, which has frequently ranked among the top value golf courses in the country. This 18-hole, par-72 public golf course is rated 4.5/5 stars by Golf Digest, partly due to the 12th hole being the largest green in the Pacific Northwest. Golfers can dine at the course’s The Edge Steakhouse and Sports Bar, and the course’s Champions Room frequently hosts private events like weddings and company parties. For a more laid-back experience, Canyon Lakes Park has plenty of green space for family outings. “Canyon Lakes Park is tiny, and we don’t do many events there. We try to have a balance of parks with events and those with a natural feel,” Kennewick Recreation Manager Brandon Lange says. “There are a few amenities there, like a small picnic shelter and a tennis and pickleball court.” A walking path surrounds this park and welcomes visitors to take a stroll in the shade of dozens of trees. Residents aren’t far from Horse Heaven Hills Park, whose 20 acres include softball, tennis, soccer and playground areas, and from the popular Southridge Sports and Events Complex. This complex includes the Gesa Carousel of Dreams, an antique carousel that continues to entertain families a century later.Island and regional flavors at local restaurants
Canyon Lakes is situated next to a major concentration of shopping on 27th Avenue, where shoppers can pick up groceries and home goods from Walmart and The Home Depot, catch a movie at Fairchild Cinemas and dine at both chain and local restaurants. Dagupan Grill has a mission of providing diners with “a taste of the Philippines,” with a broad menu reflecting Luzon’s diverse recipes. Just three blocks east of Canyon Lakes Drive, the Southridge Dugout Bar & Grill provides visitors with a sporty environment, highly acclaimed cheese curds and a taste of the Tri-Cities’ thriving craft beer scene.Retirement homes and family residences
Canyon Lakes’ housing makeup is diverse in both aesthetics and purpose. At the neighborhood’s eastern edge, The Village at Canyon Lakes consists entirely of 55-plus housing, most of them townhouses that sell for between $320,000 and $420,000. Other senior residents reside at the Brookdale Canyon Lakes and Fleur De’ Lis Homes assisted living facilities. The rest of the neighborhood is home to all kinds of residents, including younger families. Condos here range in value from $350,000 to $530,000, while New Traditional homes and custom builds can vary in price from $400,000 to $900,000. Canyon Lakes’ streetscapes are quiet, with warrens of residential lanes branching off from Canyon Lakes Drive. These side-streets have sidewalks, paved driveways and blooming front yards with hedges, trees of all colors and spacious lawns.Traveling around the Tri-Cities
Most Canyon Lakes residents drive to their destinations, although - just a block north of the neighborhood - travelers can hop on the 47 bus if they wish to access the shopping conveniences at the Columbia Center 8 miles to the northwest. The Trios Care Center’s Southridge campus is just 2 miles west of the neighborhood and across Highway 395, which offers easy access to the rest of the Tri-Cities.Extracurriculars and engineering at Southridge High
Students can start their education at Sage Crest Elementary School, given a B-plus rating by Niche, before attending the B-minus-rated Chinook Middle School and Southridge High School, which receives a B-plus. Niche ranks Southridge High among the top three public high schools in the Tri-Cities, and the school offers strong extracurriculars from music to football. Students can also take AP classes and engineering technology courses to prepare themselves for their post-secondary futures.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
