Beautiful location and view. Staff was very friendly answered all our questions and made sure we had a great visit. The lodge is such a wonderful addition where my kids (8,11) loved playing chess and the breakfast was an extra surprise. Just waffles toast and muffins cereal and tea and juice but it was enough to fuel us until lunch. The room was a little tight and bathroom was even tighter but we didn’t spend much time inside and the outdoor space and lodge makes up for it. We wish we would’ve had more time to stay there and I am sure we will be back in the future

The location was wonderful with all rooms looking out to the lake. Each room had a balcony to enjoy the view. Beautiful golf course next door. Staff was utterly amazing, and bent over backwards to help us with an issue that had nothing to do with the resort. There is a Hot Tub on site, but unfortunately we never found time to enjoy it what with nearby hot springs in Ainsworth & Nakusp.

Couldn't find ice. A little pricey, but accomodations can be difficult to find during the tourist season so we were quite happy to pay the rate in exchange for the amazing roads and stunning location.

Magnificent view. Balcony to sit and enjoy the view. Pleasant accommodating staff. Comfortable bed and pillows. Spacious room. Upon arrival there was an initial feeling of isolation, but the hotel is only a few minutes away from local attractions. Ainsworth Hot Springs is less than 15 minute very scenic drive away. We spent the afternoon enjoying the Ainsworth Hot Springs and Cave, returned to the hotel and then drove back to the Ainsworth Hot Springs for delicious supper at Ktunaxa Grill. Next morning we drove only a few minutes to the Ferry Terminal and took the ferry across Kootenay Lake to continue our journey.

Only a cold take away breakfast in a paper bag was available. Out of 14 hotels we stayed at on our extended driving vacation this was the only one that did not offer some version of breakfast buffet that included both hot and cold items. For the price point at this hotel I think there should have been a better offering for breakfast.

This is the third time I have stayed in this hotel. It provides a quiet and beautiful setting, clean rooms and facilities and a comfortable room.

I do think it is a bit overpriced since there is still no formal dining, just a bag breakfast, but the hotel is in such a beautiful spot and provides the traveller with a comfortable stay.

The breakfast was a little light. There is no other restaurant close by to get a full breakfast so I would have liked something more. However the cereal and muffins, coffee were fine.

The balcony, and the view were absolutely beautiful. The lobby was great was well.

The price was fairly high for the amenities that were available. The sounds from other rooms.
