Prettiest house in town!

We throughly enjoyed our stay in this house. It was beautiful inside and out. The kitchen was stocked with all of the utensils I needed to cook, and the appliances were high quality. We enjoyed the ping pong table and yoga room. The walk was straight down the hill to town and even in line with the convenient stairs, as it’s a steep hill, which makes Nelson so unique to us. The house may have been one of the nicest in the neighborhood. The beds were firm, but very comfortable. We all slept great! There were a collection of family games we played each night. I should add, it’s a very old house with a steep staircase to the laundry room and a claw foot tub to shower, so beware if you are not very agile. We love Nelson and this house and look forward to returning soon!

Summer road trip

Our three night stay was fantastic, the property has an amazing patio to watch the sunset. The house was spacious and relaxing which was perfect after being on the road for multiple days. Definitely would come back again if we're back in the area.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this beautifully restored home in Nelson. The fenced lawn and garden made for a perfect area for our 9 yr. old to kick the ball around and play ping pong. A perfect base to explore Nelson and the surrounding area.

Quintessential Nelson

Beautifully maintained and restored Nelson Victorian. Incredibly well stocked, comfortable, house in desirable location. Great back patio shaded by ancient English Walnut tree. Great gardens with wonderful rock work. Nice walk downtown, shorter walk to local coffee shop. Margot was always ready with help. We’ll definitely stay here again.

This is a welcoming and comfortable old house with plenty of space inside and out. Perfect yard to exercise our dog and enjoy the deck just off the kitchen. Very quiet neighborhood.

Beautiful stay in Nelson

Charming, comfortable home is a great location. Walkable to Baker Street and close to mountain biking trails. Note that the yard is not fully fenced, if you bring your pooch. All bedrooms and full bath is upstairs, and the washer/dryer is down a steep set of stairs in the basement (in case stairs are an issue for folks). We would definitely stay here again. It’s a lovely home in the beautiful little town of Nelson.

Fantastic!

Where to start? Nelson is glorious and Margot’s property was the icing on the cake. Her house is so beautiful you are definitely going to want to plan some time just to hang there whether it’s patio season or not. We cooked a few meals there and opted for takeout just to enjoy the patio. We watched the sunset every night from the deck. The yard is HUGE; plan on hanging out while watching your pooch run around. (Margot does warn that the yard isn’t completely fenced in so don’t leave your dog unattended. Our escape artist found every minuscule opening). It’s really close to downtown and Baker Street; but be warned it’s an uphill walk on the way home (so take a soak in the clawfoot tub or a stretch in the yoga room!) Margot has a huge list of recommendations from food to activities to shopping. Since this isn’t a review about Nelson I won’t go into detail but just know that we hit about 70% of what she recommended and would have finished the list if we had time. I will mention a fun day trip we enjoyed up to Zaslo “The Switzerland of Canada” for poutine, soft serve, and the most picturesque backdrop to enjoy it. I highly recommend staying at Margot’s place for your Nelson adventure. Every nook and cranny has thought put into it and she was super responsive throughout our stay. Thank you so much for making our trip extra special!

Great stay

We had a great stay at this house. The kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed (although a microwave would be nice). It is pretty far uphill and so I would not say it is walking distance to town. Wonderful town and jumping off point for exploring the area. Would stay again!

Beautiful heritage home

We had family coming together from 3 different provinces for our stay in Nelson and this beautiful home was the perfect spot to meet up. We enjoyed the outdoor space a lot, with the ping pong table getting lots of use, relaxing on the huge patio while reading a book in the shade, and BBQ-ing while our dog played in the grass. The host was great and always available for any questions we had. All in all we would reccommend this home to everyone :)

Golf holiday

Very much enjoyed our stay. Instructions were clear, the home was clean and furnishings comfortable. As we spent our in house time playing games at the dining table brighter lighting would be helpful. We are 60 plus and eyes not what they used to be! Due to Covid, we ate all our meals in. Some kitchen additions might be a spatula and serving spoons. What we very much appreciated was the flexibility of Margot and her husband to change our booking dates due to weather conditions. They did not hesitate to accommodate us. We would recommend their property to others.
