Depending on your travel style and flexibility, I'd try keep my options open as long as possible and have an idea for each direction (or book a Plan A with good cancellation policy.
I would think you might be okay finding somewhere last minute in Nakusp/Slocan/New Denver/Kaslo.
Kaslo is a cute town - never stayed there, but grabbing dinner there it seemed like a hidden gem. 20 mins down to the hot springs. About an hour into Nelson. I think there are a bunch of little resort pockets along the lake coast. Same with Crawford Bay side.
