Beautiful view! Golf course looked wonderful.

No place to hang your towel by the shower. No place to put your toiletries. And nothing to blow your nose with except toilet paper that is a very stupid location. Behind your back when on the throne.

Pleasant setting in Balfour

Pleasant stay between Nelson and Kaslo. The hotel offers lake views on the opposite side of the lake but elevated for viewing. Nice balcony areas. Hotel is more rustic and quiet but clean rooms, free continental breakfast. More of a lodge than a resort. Golf course associated with it that has a small but tasty restaurant with more elevated options than expected.
