Great property for our short stay in Nelson. The host was very accommodating. The power went out for a few hours and they made sure we had a way to cook our dinner and provided us with a head lamp. Would definitely recommend.

Great place! On the lake but only a minute over the bridge. First morning we woke up to wild turkeys, Canadian geese, 2 bunnies, a small garter, and a very friendly dog on the property. Place was clean, quiet, and had everything we needed and would be beautiful in any season.

We had a wonderful stay at this property.Alex and Jessica are fantastic hosts and made us feel very welcome.We were in Nelson visiting our son, his wife, and our granddaughter. We travel from Belgium regularly to spend time with them, and also have another son living in Singapore, so these family visits are especially meaningful to us.Our granddaughter especially loved playing with the children of the family. They had set up a small inflatable play castle, which she really enjoyed, and she also spent a lot of time on the swing.The property has rabbits, a cat, and a lovely dog, which added to the warm and friendly atmosphere.We also really enjoyed the beautiful wildlife in the area and the truly stunning views.The accommodation itself is lovely, very comfortable, and we felt at home right away.We would definitely love to return.

Cozy Hideaway

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.

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.

Property is very clean and well appointed. Great location, on the water and close to Nelson. Owner (Property Manager lives on the property (home above the suite) but was not around much of the time. In my view this property is better suited to a couple rather than a family with children. (We had our 2 grandchildren with us)

Wonderful and fragrance free place!

Jessica and Alex‘s property is fantastic! It is clean, comfortable, well stocked, and fragrance free! They have a beautiful view and lakefront access on the property. It’s rare to find a fragrance free rental property and this one really is, on top of being super clean. We had a fantastic, relaxing, quiet stay, and would not stay anywhere else in the area if we returned to Nelson, which we hope to do so soon!
