  I was very disappointed with my experience at this resort. The name is very misleading and I would say it is more like a motel than a resort. The rooms are small, congested, and superficially clean. Upon our arrival the TV and phone did not work although the owner did come over and assist to fix things. Our unit came with a kitchenette, however it was minimally equipped with the cooking utensils and materials. The furniture, fixtures and blinds shows their age. The location is conveniently right on the main highway with the lake view not appreciated from within the room, however the mountains and rustic surrounding are what our view consisted of, would have been better to see the lake view. The entrance into the resort comes upon very suddenly and is easy to miss, we did. It is located between Balfour and Nelson so a little away from shopping and amenities, although there is a very pricy convenience store very close by. We went in February, winter time with lots of snow. Activities are more limited but still some options of walking along lake pathways, aquatic centre newly renovated and very nice, hot pools in Ainsworth to name some. We found our resort was priced a bit high for what we got. Complimentary breakfast is only offered in the summer.

  Scary. I think this place is haunted by ghosts from the old Willowhaven.
