Fairmont Hot Springs, British Columbia

Fairmont Hot Springs has a strip mall including a market, restaurants, and a gift shop.

Fairmont Hot Springs is home to the Dutch Creek Hoodoos, which are sandstone cliffs (hoodoos) with hiking trails located next to Dutch Creek, a source of the Columbia River and formerly a salmon breeding stream.

Fairmont provides the only road access to Columbia Lake Provincial Park, five kilometers south.

A small creek that runs throughout the town formed a natural dam and backup water built up.

The resort boasts a hotel, two campgrounds, 3 golf courses, a ski-hill, several hot springs swimming pools, a spa, water and sewer utility plants, 668 acres of undeveloped property and more.
