GolfWest interviewed developer Craig McMorran about the new resort development opportunity at Sweetwater Lake Village at Koocanusa. He outlined the benefits of living at the centre of great recreational activities.
What does this location offer to golfers?
Sweetwater is located in the middle of golf country, surrounded by many beautiful courses including St. Eugene, Fernie Golf and Country Club, Cranbrook Golf and Country Club, Mission Hills, Shadow Mountain, Trickle Creek, Will-O-Bend, Kimberley Golf Club and Indian Springs across the border in Montana.
What other lifestyle benefits can be enjoyed by living at Sweetwater?
Lakefront opportunities including boating, fishing and water sports as well as quadding, mountain climbing, biking, hiking and whitewater rafting. Winter sports include world-class snowmobiling, cross-country skiing and some of the best downhill skiing in the world at Fernie, Kimberley and Whitefish, Montana. There is also a full casino and card room at St. Eugenes only 35 minutes away.
Please describe the setting.
The setting is in a serene valley on a 90-mile winding warm lake in an arid climate that is—most importantly—mosquito-free and only 3.5 hours from Calgary, 35 minutes from Fernie and 40 minutes from Cranbrook.
Is there anything else you would like our readers to know about the opportunity at Sweetwater?
The most attractive thing about Sweetwater is that each homeowner has the right to marina slip so that boating is very convenient. It is an electric golf cart community, has zero-maintenance landscaping, a full water and sewer treatment facility, first-class restaurant and marina services on site and a commercial area with stores and groceries; all starting at $349,000 for full ownership of a lot and cabin.
