Super friendly hosts. Wonderful property. Quiet, relaxing, secure place for gear, and the hot tub is super. The location provided great access to all that we love to do in Nelson (biking, paddling, eating!). It was our 6th visit to Nelson and this place is hands down our favorite.

There was so many thoughtful things put in place at this cute little place! The location was great for my girls trip to the Kootenays and was a comfy little home away from home! Would definitely stay again!

Even though the cottage was right behind the host's home we were not disturbed in the slightest. Very quiet & peaceful environment.

Fabulous guesthouse! Its in a perfect spot, close to Nelson, and the beach. The guesthouse itself is a perfect size for two and the private hot tub is such an added bonus. The hosts are so great, thanks again!

Immaculately clean, private, great hot tub, super comfy bed and sofa. Owners have thought of everything - tea, coffee, cooking oil, shampoo, conditioner, even eggs from their chickens! Highly recommend this guesthouse.

We really enjoyed our stay here. They created a little private oasis in their backyard carriage house. It was clean, quiet, and peaceful. The place is exactly as pictured with all amenities needed. Eggs from their chickens and coffee provided. They also provided robes and slippers for the fabulous private hot tub and such a fair price. We would stay again.

Beautiful little home with a beautiful garden with chickens you can say hello to every morning (no roosters!). The place was perfectly clean and the host was kind enough to leave us some eggs in the fridge from the coop out back. The hot tub was also clean, private and had a gorgeous view. I would highly recommend staying here if you get the chance! :))

Love this hidden gem. My son and I enjoyed our stay immensely, and will stay there again when in Nelson. The kitchen had everything we needed, the living room was spacious, my don slept on the sofa and found it comfortable, my bed was really comfy, and the bathroom was nice and roomy. My son also really enjoyed the hot tub. We could have had some veggies from their garden, however we had brought veggies with us. Also had some eggs from their chickens. It was a relaxing and enjoyable stay. We will definitely go there when we are next in Nelson. Thanks, Yan
