Stayed at the Kokanee Glacier Resort for a month and was immediately impressed with Laurie; friendly, helpful, sincere and effervescent. She was an indication of what to expect: a wonderful jewel of a motel in a great location that delivers full value. I recommend it most highly. Should another adventure take me to Nelson and environs in the future, I... More

Kokanee Glacier Resort has a nice space that overlooks the "6 mile" section of the West arm of Kootenay Lake.

We had a great couple of nights here on our way across the country. It’s a lovely place with large, clean, well-appointed rooms. The owner/manager is very sweet and accommodating. Even though she does occasionally sound like Sarah Palin over the phone (You betcha!), ... it’s not her ... .

We were just passing through and only stayed one night, but would have loved to stay longer if we could. Very nice hosts, wonderful breakfast and excellent value. Beautiful scenery and a nice suite-not luxurious but really comfortable and homey. If we're that way again, we will stay there.
