This rustic and retro house was perfect for our family getaway. There was plenty of space for everyone, and the access to the beach and lawn area was ideal for numerous activities. Staci was a great host, responding quickly to any questions and going out of her way to make sure we enjoyed our stay.
The property was beautiful, being right on the beach was great. The yard was big enough we played bocce and ladder ball!! The house had everything we needed, very unique design in the house. We had two families and were very comfortable and enjoyed our stay very much!!
We stayed at the Nelson Beach Chalet with our two kids, just rented the top floor. It was very clean and well equipped for everything you needed for a comfortable stay. The views were incredible and the beach was beautiful. The host responded quickly to any questions. Would highly recommend this rental!

Bed Bugs:(Beautiful location and property with an older house. Owners were great with communication when we were there. Unfortunately during our stay we got many bed bug bites and had to leave early. To the owner’s credit, she was very sympathetic and responsive when we informed her, and we do feel compassion for them having to deal with this in their rental. However we found out when vacating that they tried to have them exterminated three times prior. We wish we had known about the ongoing issue beforehand, as we would have cancelled. It put a damper on what would have been a wonderful trip and beginning of summer. We spent a week treating all of our items ensuring we did not bring them back into our own homes. It was quite stressful. We did end up eventually getting a full refund but that also felt like a lot of work and stress working with VRBO to get the refund (the owner was in full support). This is clearly a tough situation and the owner is trying to resolve it, but at the time of our visit the problem had not been fully eliminated. Once the issue is fully resolved, this would be a fantastic place to stay.
Beautiful property and perfect setting right on the beach. Host was very quick to respond to any questions. House had everything we needed. Highly recommend this spot!
A beautiful, classic cedar home right on the shores of a pristine lake. We live in the Creston Valley so it was a great way to enjoy Kootenay Lake. Walk out the lower level onto the lawn and continue right on to the beach. Perfect for every age. House was spotless and the property is very well maintained.
Well done!
The lake front was lovely and continued into the lake with a gradual sandy walk - perfect for the kids.
Not only were the owners attentive, but the neighbours were great too, offering up their beach toys and tips. Lovely end to the summer.
Thanks Staci!
