Sustainability
The resort is committed to environmental sustainability and social responsibility. It uses geothermal energy to heat the hot springs and the buildings, and solar panels to generate electricity. It also recycles, composts, and uses biodegradable products. The resort supports local farmers, artisans, and businesses by sourcing organic and fair-trade ingredients, products, and services. It also donates to various charities and causes, such as the Kootenay Lake Hospital Foundation, the Nelson Food Cupboard, and the Kootenay Animal Assistance Program.
The resort is a family-owned and operated business that employs local staff and contributes to the economic development of the region. It also fosters a sense of community and belonging among its guests and staff, by hosting events, activities, and workshops that celebrate the culture, history, and nature of the area. The resort also encourages its guests to learn about and respect the indigenous heritage and traditions of the Ktunaxa Nation, whose ancestral lands include the hot springs.
