About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Heritage Home: fully licensed

This restored heritage home was built in 1898 for one of the most prominent families of British Columbia. It encapsulates the architectural style and character of the era, charm and history of the region and provides a unique and authentic stay for visitors.

Nestled amidst breathtaking natural beauty, guests have the opportunity to immerse themselves in the region's history, culture, and outdoor activities.

Located in Nelson's Uphill neighbourhood we are a 5 minute walk to downtown and 2 blocks away from the Uphill Market where you can get a delicious Latte, snacks and grocery basics.
High enough up the mountain to be off of Mainstreet but low enough that it is an easy walk uphill.
Close to the Alpine hotel where the ski hill shuttle picks up.

The house was beautiful and so many options for sleeping arrangements! The kids got to have a sleepover upstairs and the adults got to have big lovely bedrooms to themselves. Best stocked vacation rental I've ever stayed at!

Fantastic home in a fantastic location

My friends and I were travelling to perform at a festival in town and this place was perfect. Large and comfortable beds, plenty of space to stretch and unwind at night and only a 9minute walk to downtown. Communication with host was so easy and we all would definitely come stay again!

Christmas in Nelson

We needed a place that could accommodate our family for Christmas and we’re glad we chose this property. It’s a large heritage home within walking distance to downtown. The kitchen is roomy and we easily cooked a feast for dinner. They even put up a Christmas tree us! I highly recommend this property.

An amazing older home that was well maintained. There were 9 adults staying in the home and we couldn’t have asked for a better place. Close to everything and a short walk to the center of town! Amazing views and would stay there again in a heartbeat!

Cool house in a great spot

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this nicely renovated Victorian in the heart of Nelson. Plenty of room for 7 adults who didn't want to share beds. The location is excellent - a short walk to the restaurants and shops downtown and a quick 15 minute drive to Whitewater ski resort. The host was very responsive and helpful. Would definitely stay again.

Anniversary celebration

The 6 of us ( friends) were in town to celebrate an anniversary. The accommodations were close to everything we required. The house had more than enough bedrooms and the shared spaces gave everyone elbow room. The host was very quick with responsing to all our questions and requirements. We would highly recommend this unit.

This spot was great for us. good bedrooms, good kitchen, easy walk into Nelson, and a short drive to the ski area. The one thing we would suggest for improvement is better lighting and seating for reading. But all in all, we would definitely come back.

House and host both excellent

The house is beautiful, and the view of the lake from the back deck is breathtaking. The kitchen is beyond well equipped. When prepping meals for our crew - everything we hoped to find we found! The bedrooms are pretty, and super comfortable. Kristin is really responsive but also has that lovely Kootenay vibe. Welcoming and relaxed. Best rental experience ever! Thanks Kristine.
