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.

We came to Nelson for a family wedding, and this house was perfect! Enough room for us all to enjoy breakfast and lunch at the kitchen table. All the comforts of home, and thoughtfully outfitted kitchen. Walkable to downtown Nelson, quiet in a leafy neighbourhood. The host was super helpful and responsive to our questions. Thank you again

Great family spot
A most comfortable stay with 6 adults, 2 kids and one infant. Lots of room for everyone. Kitchen was well-stocked for preparing meals. Kristen has created a welcoming space for her guests and we had everything we needed for our stay. Great view from the back deck. Close to downtown. Bike storage available. Thanks, Kristen. We would definitely stay again next time we meet up in Nelson.

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.

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.
