We had a lovely stay at this beautiful property. Gorgeous views of the lake. It is a nice place to stay if you're visiting Nelson. The family was very sweet and kind too!. I would recommend staying here.
A lovely little spot nestled next to the lake. It was an easy commute into the beautiful town of Nelson. We enjoyed the view from the dock especially on New Year as the Northern Lights dazzled the sky.
This was the ideal spot for our recent family visit to Nelson. The property was easy to find, close to everything we needed and the hosts were welcoming, friendly and helpful.
Good location close to Nelson town and other destinations close by. All required amenities for a few days stay and host provided goodies to get us started. Will use rental again.
We had a delightful 4 day visit for a family wedding. We were warmly welcomed. The kitchen area was easy to use and the beds were comfy. The view was incredible and the location was close to town and pretty close the Kokanee campground. Overall an amazing visit. Thank you!!!
Beautiful property, friendly hosts. Great lakeview accommodations. The family lives on the main floor so there is noise above, especially early morning. It was hot outside during our stay, so the suite was quite warm at night - a fan would be useful. A nice perk is the reverse osmosis water system so no need to buy bottled water. We would stay here again!
I stayed here for a month while completing a nursing contract and the place was great! It had everything I needed and more, and the view was beautiful. Playing with the dog, cat and bunnies was an added bonus! Would definitely love to stay here again in the future.
We loved the location which was close to town, but far enough away to be peaceful.
The accommodations were clean, beautiful and well designed. The use of concrete & natural wood made for a cozy & warm atmosphere.
The hosts are very kind, friendly and accommodating.
We highly recommend this location and hope to return!
Had a wonderful 4 days, beautiful, spacious, bright and well designed suite. Lakefront and dock a great place to be. Well supplied with towels, soaps, kitchen utensils etc. Jessica and Alex were fine hosts and very amenable. We appreciated the homemade cookies and granola as well as a coffee and tea supply.
Thank you and we plan to return !
We had a very relaxing stay at this beautiful lakeside suite. The views were stunning and it was very nice to sit outside with coffee in the morning on this peaceful property. The host was so thoughtful and had homemade cookies and granola out for us when we arrived as well as some age appropriate toys our son could play with. The suite had everything we could need and was laid out perfectly. We would love to return on our next visit to Nelson!
Wonderful 4 day stay! Host was responsive to enquiries and the accommodations offered everything we needed. The little touches of granola, teas, coffee and brownies were very appreciated. The bed was incredibly comfy so important to ensure a restful stay. The town is an easy 5 min drive so a wonderful balance between a bit of solitude and access to restaurants abd shops. Would not hesitate to recommend to family or friends.
I cannot say enough about the hosts or this property. The spacious suite is beautiful, newly renovated, and has views of the lake from the living room and kitchen. It is less than 5 minute drive from Baker Street. The kitchen is completely stocked, and has everything you would need. The entire suite was impeccably cleaned, with some lovely touches - such as home made cookies!
The hosts were so kind and helpful. Cannot thank them enough.
You cannot go wrong with this VRBO!
My wife and I had a lovely visit to this property recently and stayed for 3 nights. The suite was well appointed and met our needs. It was our first time staying in a VRBO where the owners and their family (4 lovely girls) were home upstairs all weekend. It was uncomfortable at first, as we felt we were imposing on their day to day life, but our hosts Alex and Jessica were lovely and friendly, and kept the girls away from our area for the most part. The location was excellent, very close to town, and had it's own section of beach and waterfront. Walking down from the driveway to our suite was a bit steep, and also, the walk down to to backyard beach was steep also. I have recently had back surgery and it was a bit of a challenge for me, perhaps the steepness could be mentioned in the listing to renters in case of other folks like me?? We usually like to wake up to a pot of coffee brewing, so the French Press as the only coffee maker didn't work for us, as we like to wake up to coffee ready to go. Perhaps add a basic coffee maker as an option for guests? The only other thing that would have been nice, was if our patio had been cleaned/swept/vacuumed before we got there, as the table/chairs/and concrete pad had lots of webs and dead bugs.
Having said that, we really enjoyed our visit, and Jessica's treats of homemade cookies and granola were much appreciated. We would definitely stay here again!
This place was amazing in every way. Really nice to be close to town yet surrounded by nature and views of the lake. Peaceful, comfortable, and great little kitchen. So many sitting spots to enjoy a cup of tea!
Eagles chattering above; juicy plums falling from the tree; gorgeous views of Kootenay Lake. Alex and Jessica's family home is the perfect spot for a couple or small family who want to enjoy a little slice of Nelson paradise. The kitchen is well-appointed, pull-out couch great for the kids, and the suite has all the amenities (except washer/dryer) that most people would need. Easy access to town and Pulpit for hiking.
Great place to stay! Quality accommodation and close to everything you need but far enough from town to feel like you are away from it all
Great hiking, restaurants and shopping close by. Our first time in Nelson but we will definitely be back for a summer experience hopefully
Beautiful lakefront property with generous hosts. The suite was immaculate and having a full kitchen was a bonus. We wanted to take the dog home with us, but really didn’t want to leave at all with the spectacular views from the end of the dock. This is how life should be.
Alex and his family were great hosts! Beautiful location on the lake and close to city amenities.
