Overlooking spectacular Kootenay Lake, the Lodge, with its massive windows and expansive deck affords breathtaking lake & mountain views. The Maloca, a magnificent round, timbered ceremonial and activity space, seems to float above the lake. A short stroll from the Lodge, the Sentinel's spa deck, with its unique wood-fired sauna and cedar-lined hot tub is a favourite gathering spot for guests, year-'round. 700' of lakefront, with deck, firepit and yoga area is a tranquil spring/summer area.

Getting Here

Location icon The Sentinel, Kaslo, British Columbia, Canada

Directions

We are a 50-minute drive north of Nelson, BC, just outside the charming village of Kaslo. We are 9 hours by car from Vancouver, and 8 hours from Calgary. These drives are incredibly beautiful, wending through some of North America's most spectacular mountain terrain. There are flights (approx. 1 hour) from both Vancouver & Calgary to our nearest airport, in Castlegar, which is a scenic 1.5 hours from our door. Driving from Nelson, follow highway 3A north to Balfour (Kootenay Lake ferry landing), and proceed another 20-25 minutes on Highway 31 north. There is a "Sentinel Retreat" blue road sign on the highway (approx. 60 km from Nelson). Slow down and prepare to take a sharp right turn onto Amundsen Road. The Sentinel is located at bottom of the hill. Please observe signs. Read More

We had the most incredible love ceremony one could ever imagine. The Maloca is like a spaceship, and we went on a live journey through the Cosmos! That you Janet all the helper and of coure Richard and Gillian for the tireless efforts that allow this place to thrive!
Highly recommend this type of ceremony for anyone newly in love or wishing to go deeper into relationship with full community support.

Great views
Everything was great except we were on the bottom floor and you could hear the people above you and the walls are paper thin. Other than that, great location and service and amenities. The hot tub was nice and warm. Wish we tried the sauna but got there late and we were tired. Would go back for sure. Read More
