Great weekend in BC.

We had an awesome time in Balfour, Nelson, Ainsworth and Whitewater. We look forward to doing it again. Maybe we'll have a little more snow next time.

Perfect location

We stayed here for a family vacation. Age ranging from 82 to 13 years old. It was a perfect layout, (because of mobility issues )having bedrooms on the main floor . The house has a lot of room so we never felt we were on top of each other. Has everything you need for a comfortable stay.

Spectacular View - Beautiful Home

Gorgeous view from large windows and a great patio where we spent many hours chatting and barbecuing. All the amenities that anyone could want in a rental home including lots of kid toys to keep our little ones entertained. Close proximity to explore Nelson and the many hiking trails in the area. It is also literally 5 minutes from the ferry. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

About the host

Hosted by Charlotte Cooke

We are a pair of adventurous "World Travelers". We have both made our living by working on ships and the marine industry. We have traveled the world and now found our new lives together in the Kootenays.

Robin,

I was born in Victoria, BC. I am a Chief Engineer presently employed as an Chief Engineer for the Kootenay Lake Ferries (Balfour & Osprey 2000). I am an avid Motorcyclist I presently own a Ducati (Hypermotard 1100) street bike and Honda 450r Motocross bike that I can’t spend enough time on. I have excellent knowledge of all the local highways and by-ways and would love to share that knowledge to fellow street riders. I am presently still exploring the motocross trails and would be happy to provide some guiding or other support for your rides.

Now that I found myself in the Kootenays, I am becoming an avid outdoorsman again. I am taking up Hunting, fishing, and trying to get back into x-country skiing and snow boarding.

Before my present career, I was employed with Carnival UK (cruise ships) out of Southampton, UK for five years. I was traveling the Mediterranean, Baltic, and Caribbean seas with all of the beautiful Ports they offer as a First Engineer and Environmental Officer. While employed with the cruise ships, I made Thailand my home for five years where Charlotte and I explored S.E. Asia together. And Yes, I did meet Charlotte on the cruise ships. She was employed as a “Events Officer”.

Charlotte,

I was born in Wiltshire, England (near Bath which is famous for the Roman Baths and not far from Stonehenge.)

I worked for P&O cruises for nine years in that time completed 2 world voyages, contracts were 4-5 months and we would meet the ship in port anywhere in the world and sail where the ship was based for that season. I met Robin onboard whilst working together & moved to Canada six years ago and love my new home.

Now my (our) life is all about our Infant daughter Isabella (6) and our son Oliver (4). They are my full-time career for right now.
