About Golden and Surrounding Area:
Golden and Area A (Habart) are located in the Columbia Shushwap region and is located in confluence of two beautiful rivers - The Kicking Horse River & The Columbia River. While this natural setting is part of what makes the area so special, it also means that mosquito populations are significant during the summer months, particularly from June through September.
The Town of Golden carries out mosquito control efforts, and we also do our best to minimize mosquitoes around the property. However, mosquito populations are a natural part of the local environment and are beyond the control of any individual homeowner or host.
To help keep mosquitoes and other insects from entering the suite, please keep doors closed as much as possible, including when unloading luggage or moving items in and out. We also recommend bringing insect repellent if you plan to spend time outdoors, especially in the evenings.

Portable Air Conditioning:
Portable A/C units are available from approximately June 21 through September 15th. Outside of these months, cooler overnight temperatures make air conditioning unnecessary.
