Edyta and Adam Derus of Edmonton and Debbie and Brian Winter of Olds, Alberta, are new friends who met this summer at Fairmont Hot Springs Resort RV Park in B.C.'s Columbia Valley.

Have you been to Fairmont Hot Springs before, or is this your first visit?

Edyta: We have visited Fairmont Hot Springs Resort many times through the years and we usually stay for two weeks. Our children (aged 17 and six) enjoy the pools and the trampoline, and making new friends every time they visit.

Brian: Debbie has been visiting Fairmont Hot Springs for over 40 years. We spend seven to 10 days here every summer, relaxing and enjoying the pools and the scenery. Making new friendships is something we look forward to every year.

Is there something special that you, as adults, like about the amenities?

Edyta: I appreciate the shuttle that takes guests from the RV park to the pool, and I love being able to have my daily latte from Steamers, in the main lodge.
