Kokanee Glacier Resort
2615 Highway 3A, V1L 6K9 Nelson, Canada – Great location - show map
We stayed in room 201, which overlooks the lake. The view was beautiful and we spent time on the balcony enjoying the sunshine. It is convenient to downtown, just a short drive away. Two bedrooms and a kitchenette stocked with everything we needed. We didn’t cook there but could have. The beds were comfortable. The highway is very close by but it was never noisy at night. We slept well. We would definitely stay there again especially if we could get that room.

Overlooking Kootenay Lake, this resort is just 10 minutes’ drive to the sandy beaches of Kokanee Creek Provincial Park. Each suite includes a full kitchen and barbecue facilities are provided on site. Free Wi-Fi and cable TV are featured in each simply furnished suite at Kokanee Glacier Resort. A living room with a sofa bed provide extra lounging space and accomodations. Rooms may offer a lake or mountain view. Fire pits are available for guests’ use at Kokanee Glacier Resort Nelson. Picnic areas provide an ideal setting for al fresco dining. Guests may also enjoy on-site activities such as volleyball. Whitewater Ski Resort is about 19 mi away from this hotel. Ainsworth Hot Springs are about 35 minutes’ drive.
