Alpine Inn & Suites

Beautiful Waterfront Cabin on Kootenay Lake

10/10 Excellent

"This is our 3rd summer spending a week in Procter, eating cinnamon buns on the beach and enjoying everything Kootenay lake has to offer. As a family of 6 with 4 young children, this property has been a great fit for splashing around in the water, eating ice cream on the deck, and quieter moments inside during the brief periods of poor weather. Highly recommended!"
