Golf

Golfing in the Kootenays is a unique experience. You will be surrounded by scenic vistas, abundant wildlife, and dramatic elevation changes that can make for some difficult encounters with the terrain.

There are courses for every level of golfer located a short drive, or walk, from the Kootenay Lakeview Resort BW Signature Collection.
