Over 50 years ago, a group of visionaries set out to build the ultimate nature escape out of one of the most beautiful and rugged natural landscapes in British Columbia.
The legendary Kokanee Springs Golf Course was carved from the wilderness between the Purcell Mountains and Kootenay Lake and has been a bucket-list golf destination ever since.
 
This natural oasis in BC’s West Kootenay region, east of the Okanagan Valley and west of the Rocky mountains, is nestled between the Selkirk and Purcell Mountain ranges in the town of Crawford Bay. Surrounded by one of the rarest ecosystems on the planet, the Kootenay Lake area makes an ideal place to find your balance in the great outdoors.

It’s also more than a little out of the way, making it not only a beautiful road trip destination regardless of your starting point, but a pretty amazing location to retreat to – to rest and recharge, to soak in the fresh mountain air, and to connect to the earth.
 
At Kokanee Springs Resort by Pinnacle Lifestyles, you’ll find more than 425 lush acres, the majestic 18-hole Kokanee Springs Golf Course with practice range and short game practice area, course-side accommodation, and contemporary dining at REFRESH Kitchen & Bar. You’ll also find 10 km of trails for hiking and biking, which lead directly to the beach and wetlands at the edge of Kootenay Lake.

New for 2023, Kokanee Springs Resort features a brand-new RV Resort development, with ownership opportunities and overnight RV Site rentals. All RV sites are fully serviced with power, water, and sewer, and put you right at the doorstep of Crawford Creek and all the resort's amenities.
 
The surrounding area offers a host of additional attractions and activities including the Pilot Bay Lighthouse, the Kootenay Lake Ferry – the longest free ferry in the world, and the Artisans of Crawford Bay – a collective of craftspeople showcasing their works in handweaving, pottery, soaps and much more. Visitors can also visit several wineries within 90 minutes' drive of the resort.
