NEW HOMES Your Guide to New Housing Developments in the Columbia Valley
Copper Point Resort Business Feature by Sandra Kelly If you’re a golfer who’s been to Invermere, you’ve most certainly enjoyed a round or two at Copper Point Golf Club, the picture-perfect 18-hole course on the east side of Lake Windermere. Now you can play and stay—at the luxurious new Copper Point Resort. The four-storey, 107-condo resort is taking shape on six scenic acres at the crossroads of Invermere and Highway 93. It will be a first-class resort, offering both a recreational lifestyle and a secure investment to its owners. Whole or quarter-share ownership of suites is available, and sales are brisk. “We are over eighty percent sold, but we are fortunate to still be able to offer one, two and three-bedroom units in several different views and price ranges,” says general manager Rose Marie Regitnig. Late summer is the targeted date for the resort’s grand opening. In the meantime, the Copper Point Golf Club has doubled in size with the opening of the brand new 18-hole Ridge course. An underground tunnel below Highway 93 connects the two courses. They share the original clubhouse. Both courses are meticulously groomed. The scenery is spectacular. With its innovative Par 62 masters-style design, the Ridge represents the future of golf. There are no long par 5s to contend with, and water comes into play on only two holes. Sand traps are prominent, though: every hole features at least one strategically placed bunker to avoid. The Ridge can be played in less than four hours and is ideal for walkers, juniors, seniors, beginners and family golf.
