Do you need a quiet vacation with some real rest and relaxation?
Would you like to enjoy the peaceful private solitude of being surrounded by a forest instead of noisy neighbors yet close enough to walk to all of the necessities of life within 10 minutes?
Would you like to have scenic views of Kootenay Lake and Kokanee Glacier?
I have the perfect vacation and a home away from home for you...
A Quiet Getaway is your perfect destination for a great escape from the hustle bustle of day to day life, whether it be spring, summer, fall or winter!
Enjoy a fully furnished and spacious heritage house that has been fully renovated to a modern oasis of pure relaxation.
Sleeps up to 10 people.
2 bathrooms (complete with all linens and bedding) with both a shower and a claw foot tub.
Modern kitchen with all new stainless steel appliances.
, and stocked full of all of your kitchen utensils, pots and pans and baking dishes that you would need. All you need to bring is your food!
New high efficient washer/dryer, furnace and hot water on demand tank so you never have to worry about running out of hot water!!
The large deck gives you splendid views of the Kootenay Lake, Lakeside Park, and Kokanee Glaciar and the surrounding mountains. Sit back with a refreshing drink and enjoy the sunsets, or read a book on the hammock. And lots of room to enjoy your fresh BBQ dinner!
Within ten minutes walk you are strolling down our main Baker Street looking through all of our art galleries, great clothing and outdoor stores or sitting at one of the many outdoor patios sipping a cappuccino people watching.
Short walk to town, shopping centers, lake and parks
Also within ten minutes you are down at Lakeside Park, either walking on our 8 km lakeside trail, tossing a Frisbee, kicking a soccer ball or bathing at the white sandy beach. You are also at one of the 3 big grocery stores (Save-on-Foods, Safeway, or Extra Foods), the liquor store and our one mall-Chahko-Mika Mall.
Storage for summer and winter sports enthusiasts
The house has plenty of storage for those outdoor enthusiasts who bring their golf clubs, bikes, kayaks, or ski’s and snowboards.
Cosy and inviting
In the evening sit back and enjoy the warm summer breeze, or snuggle up with a good DVD, or book in the comfortable living room.
Minutes walk to bars, restaurants and boutique shops
If you prefer a livelier evening Nelson has plenty of bars or nightclubs that are all within the ten minute walk from the house. Also a large variety of restaurants that I am proud to say cover every type of food you could ever dream of from Thai-to Russian, from Indian to Italian, and from to die for 5 star high end to die for tasty pub grub!!
High Speed Internet, Free Local Phone Calls and Local Information
At the house there is plenty of information pamphlets available for your interest on Nelson and the surrounding area. Information on the various golf courses, shops, restaurants, hot springs, hiking and biking trails and upcoming events in our area. The house is also equipped for high speed internet, and local telephone calling.
