Comfortable and Clean

Enjoyed the 2 night stay. The description mentions a 1 bedroom but it is a suite. The beds are comfortable, the little kitchen is well stocked and everything is super clean and fresh. A short drive to Nelson.

Perfect place to lay our heads

We were taking an Avalanche course in Nelson area for 3 days, so it was a perfect place just to lay our heads. It’s definitely small for 2 people and a bunch of snow gear, but it’s got all that you need. The owner is always friendly and quick to reply.

Great place for young family but awkward and small in design.

Overall it was clean and welcomThe listing was as stated but it was still smaller than what we expected. The words were true about sleeping arrangments for 4. As a studio there are no rooms for privacy or to change. It said one room so we expected the bedroom to be separate. There is no table to eat at or play board games but we used the futon collapsed to play games and sat on the floor. It looked like 2 beds and a couch in pictures but they changed bedding to look like 2 queen beds were available. Very tight for 2 adults and 2 teens. kitchen was minimalistic but equipped well. Bed was comfortable. When the futon is open there is not room to open the door without moving it back into the living room more. When you open the fridge door people cant get in and out of the bathroom. The shower is raised up and anyone over 5’10 has to crouch or bend knees so their head doesnt hit the roof. There is no fan in the bathroom or kitchen so water builds up on the windows and needs to be wiped or it drips. The microwave power bar/fuse kept popping when we rejeated food. We figured it out and had to turn the lamp off when using microwave and also ensure no phones were charging. I wouldnt say it is a full bathroom as it stated it was a full bathroom without a tub. The kitchen sink was very small and dished were hard to wash. The driveway was narrow and 2 times during our stay it was blocked and we had to reverse out. Once the owners moved their car.

All we needed

A comfortable, cosy space. Has everything you need. Best for two people, as four would be cramped. A perfect place if all you need is a clean, comfortable spot at the end of a day of activities. Very short drive (about 10 minutes) to get to downtown Nelson. Have zero complaints.

Fantastic little suite!

The perfect little place to stay! The hosts offered everything you could need and it was such a cozy little suite. Separate from the main house, it had a nice deck that unfortunately we didn’t get to enjoy much due to the rain but I would definitely stay here again!

Cozy suite with everything we needed. Simple, charming decor. Nice little patio. Took a nice walk down to the beach for a swim in Kootenay Lake. 10 min drive from town on the beautiful winding road of the north shore to get to the cabin just adds to the experience.

Great Small Space

I was thoroughly impressed with the room. It's detached and you have lots of privacy. Yes, you can hear the highway, but it's not loud enough to disturb your sleep. The owner thought of a lot of small things and I really appreciated the attention to detail. The electric fireplace and hot water on demand are great features. There was even a little lantern if you needed to navigate the property at night.

I stayed for a quiet weekend away. It is on the main road but didn't notice traffic. Easy walk to a lovely beach. Don't plan on cooking much as kitchen is very small, usable but just for simple meals. Bed was comfy. Enjoyed the electric fireplace.

CREATIVE AND UNIQUE

Overall, the experience was pleasant and met our needs. I found the location accessible and easy. The place was clean. The only criticism I have is that the mattress and futon were not very comfortable. We found them too hard and uncomfortable and actually caused some aches. The shower also overflowed onto the floor very easily. All in all, I was not disappointed. Thank you for the opportunity.

Enjoyed our stay!

My girlfriend and I had a wonderful stay here in mid July! The place was quite clean and well stocked, we had everything we needed. Only downside is that the photo of the outside of the greenhouse is a little deceiving. We thought behind the place was a green area, not a road. However, it made the commute to town and Kokanee Creek Provincial Park easy. We would recommend the place to anyone looking for an affordable place to stay near Nelson!
