Christmas Valley is an unincorporated community in Lake County, Oregon. The community was named after nearby dry Christma(n)s Lake, east of the present townsite and the site of the former Lake post office, which ran from 1906 until 1943.Real estate development around a planned community by M. Penn Phillips, called Christmas Valley, started after World War II. Christmas Valley post office was established in 1963 as a rural station of Silver Lake. Christmas Lake, Christmas (Lake) Valley, and nearby Peter's Sink and Peter's Creek were named for pioneer stockman Peter Christman, who grazed his cattle there and had a house at Silver Lake, eighteen miles to the southwest. These names were applied as early as September 29, 1877; when they were referred to by former Oregon Governor, John Whiteaker in a letter to the editor of the Eugene City Guard. Whiteaker himself had an interest in the fossil beds at nearby Fossil Lake and ranching interests in the area as well. The name-Christmas- was an early corruption of the name Christman that became entrenched in the vernacular by 1900. The Christman family often spelled their name with a T although some family members would omit it and use the name Chrisman. Several examples of both spellings were found in print, some in government documents. Whiteaker himself referred to the lake as both Christman Lake and-Christmas Lake-in his letter to the editor, and unmistakably pinpointed the lake's location.
