Edgewater is an unincorporated hamlet located in the East Kootenay region of southeastern British Columbia. It is along Highway 95 Шаблон:Convert south of Golden and on the perimeter of Kootenay National Park. It was originally founded as a farming community before World War I. Many of its residents were from England, and returned there after the war, causing the community to suffer a decline in population. Edgewater has since recovered, and the area's economy includes forestry, agriculture, and tourism.

Edgewater has couple of major attractions that draw travelers. The area around the community is Christmas tree farmland, and in the summer there is a Saturday Farmer's Market, where tourists can purchase arts and crafts, fresh produce and dairy products. Edgewater is also home to the Steamboat Mountain Music Festival in July.

The community gets its name from being at the edge of the waters of the Columbia River.
