Beautiful house in a great location

This house was perfect for a family get together. My mother has limited mobility (she uses a walker) and having the master bedroom and walk in shower on the main floor was great for her. The owners were wonderful and communicative.

Comfortable & clean large home

We were a group of four couples, it was great to stay in a large house with sufficient bedrooms and a large kitchen and dining area. The check-in and check out process was easy and well communicated, the recent snow had been taken care of so parking was easy and it was nice to be able to park in the garage.

Great for eagle spotting!

The location was excellent and we appreciated the well equipt kitchen, we did a lot of cooking! The check in instructions were also nice and clear & the kids play area downstairs was great.On the downside, there were a couple of cleanliness issues and most of the matresses are pretty tired now including the sofa bed. For those that need phone reception, it's pretty sketchy up there but good WiFi throughout.

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.
