The Lower Nicola Indian Band has purchased a resort near Logan Lake.<\/p>\n
The band announced the purchase of Tunkwa Lake Resort yesterday, Oct. 14, in a news release<\/a>, calling it a “premier destination for British Columbians and guests.”<\/p>\n The resort offers many outdoor activities, including fishing for rainbow trout, hiking, bird and wildlife viewing.<\/p>\n The current staff and management will continue to operate the resort.<\/p>\n “As an ownership group, we have worked extremely hard for the past 15 years to grow the resort and feel gratified that we are leaving it in the hands of a local community with the deepest possible roots in the area,” said Paul Patton, on behalf of the resort’s former owners.<\/p>\n The resort is surrounded by Tunkwa Provincial Park and features waterfront cabins, tenting campsites, RV sites, boat, kayak and paddle board rentals.<\/p>\n It was listed in May for $4.895 million by Land Quest Realty. The sale included 18 acres of property along the lakefront, and just narrowly avoided the massive Tremont Creek wildfire<\/a> last year.<\/p>\n READ MORE:<\/strong> B.C.
