The Holiday Creek Vacation Home is nestled in a parklike setting on the mountainside property and is part of the Kootenay Lake Lodge Waterfront Log Chalets & RV Sites. The mountainside property is bordered by Holiday Creek, a small creek with a name that derives from the "Halliday Sisters", two feisty ladies who owned and operated a strawberry farm on the property, almost 100 years ago. Very short walk to the beach and lake. The setup is ideal for family reunions and gatherings, since larger groups can make use of Holiday Creek Vacation Home (sleeps 6), two waterfront log chalets (sleep 8 each -listed on VRBO too) and the numerous RV Sites (partially or fully serviced, all with 30 amp).
Vacation Home and Waterfront Log Chalets are available by the WEEK only during the peak season month of July and August. Please inquire before booking!
