We stayed for 3 nights with our pup and felt home away from home. The space is spotlessly clean and has everything you need for a great stay. Thank you!!
The perfect location to walk to Baker, Co-op, restaurants, lakeside and around town. A quiet and cozy spot

Thank you for your kind words, Amie! We're glad you enjoyed our convenient location and cozy spot.
We look forward to welcoming you back again soon!
Best regards,
Maria & team
We has a fabulous few days at Mistiso’s Place. Maria was the perfect host and we enjoyed the well-stocked kitchen, comfortable sitting area and bedroom. Most of all, we appreciated the location; we could walk around town easily and rarely used our car. Thank you!

Amazing stay. Had everything you could want. Very comfortable, beautiful and clean. I highly recommend it. Will definitely be booking again next trip.
We spent 2 nights here and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. This is a great location, walkable to everywhere in Nelson yet quiet and secluded. It had everything we needed and a nice little outdoor sitting area (2 areas). Maria was very proactive and welcoming, thanks for everything.

Beautiful decor. Maria could write the book on a well appointed bnb.
What an incredible host! Maria was amazing, an issue with heating and she was on it immediately - fixed within 12hrs.Beautiful spot, just off the main road so a nice walk into/out of the DT core. Great location! No issues with parking (which can be expensive DT).Will definitely stay again.

Thank you so much for sharing this, James!
I’m really glad the suite worked well for your stay, and I appreciate your understanding while I sorted out the heating issue — I’m happy we were able to get it fixed quickly for you.
It’s wonderful to hear you enjoyed the location and the easy walk to downtown, and I’m glad parking was smooth as well.
You were a pleasure to host, and I’d love to welcome you back anytime!

Although this little place is ground level and downtown, it was quiet and private. We were just steps from everything and with easy close parking. It was clean and had everything we needed. The host even tipped us off to local events I would not have known about. Saturday market at Cottonwood Falls Park was so fun.

Maria, our hostess was wonderful.
She immediately would assist you if you needed it.
Located right near the restaurants, shopping and historical places are in Nelson.
However, you feel secure and private tuckec away in the beautiful, historical home.
Great place with a great yard and patio. It could not be in a better location! You can walk to everything downtown. They even let us borrow lawn chairs and a cooler for the beach. We will be back!

Very central location and the suite was beautiful. My daughter and I were very comfortable and it was an easy walk to the pool for her swim-meet. The co-op is just around the corner. We found the guests next door pretty loud the first night but our host was super responsive and reached out to them and we ended up having a fabulous, peaceful second night. Parking right outside is very convenient!
Nelson is such a cool town, and this property is right in the heart of it. I was able to walk to dinner two nights, to the bike shop, and if i had had time to shop, it's literally a block to the edge of the downtown district.
The place itself is charming and welcoming, and decorated very tastefully and artistically. For a small unit it's actually spacious, and the quality and quantity of amenities is impressive. I'd recommend to anyone to use this as a base to explore Nelson.

Great place!
My sister and I really liked this suite. Lots of space to relax, make meals and chill out. It was close to downtown restaurants and shops. The suite was clean and well stocked with everything we needed. Maria chatted with us a few times and was such a nice person full of information about where to go, where to eat and what to do. She obviously loves her suites and takes great care of her guests. Would recommend for anyone who enjoys a homey, artistic, eclectic flair to their surroundings.
This lovely suite was beautifully decorated, well stocked, immaculate, and in a perfect location close to restaurants and shops. We'd highly recommend it.

Thank you so much for your lovely review, Linda! We’re so happy to hear you enjoyed the suite, the little touches, and the convenient downtown location.
We truly appreciate your recommendation and would be delighted to welcome you back anytime you’re in Nelson again.

Great little place, great location. Just keep in mind that it’s a basement suite so hopefully the people above you got to bed not too late, which was not the case for us…they weren’t overly loud or anything, but it’s easy to hear them walk around and move chairs and such. Everything else was great!

Thank you so much for staying with us and for your thoughtful review.
We’re happy to hear you enjoyed the suite, the location, and that everything else was great. We also appreciate your note about sound transfer. Mistiso’s is a heritage home with separate suites, so while we do our best to keep things peaceful and comfortable, some everyday sounds can occasionally carry between spaces.
For guests who are especially sensitive to sound, our upper suites — Kokanee and Valhalla — may be a quieter option for a future stay.
Thank you again for choosing to stay with us. We appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you back another time.
Warmly,
Maria Schuh

We enjoyed our oasis hidden down a back alley, yet close to downtown. Maria created a warm and inviting atmosphere, filled with art and everything a person might need when away from home. Thank you! We will be back.

Very lovely space, welcoming and cozy! Everything as advertised.
This property and location was excellent. We were in the Silverking suite, it was perfect for a couple. Lots of room and a full kitchen etc. The property and other suites were in excellent shape. The common bbq area was well set up and the Weber bbq was in excellent condition. We enjoyed chatting and visiting with the other guests. The location was in easy walking distance to downtown Nelson with lots of great restaurants, coffee shops, patios and shopping nearby. Maria was excellent to work with throughout the booking process and upon checking in. She was readily available anytime during our stay. Great biking in the area and lots of outdoor activities for anything you would want to do.
Thanks Maria, Cheers Bruce/Mare

About the host
Hosted by Maria Schuh
I never thought I'd still be doing this job after 23 years! I started with no background in the industry in 2001. It began as a necessity as we were young and just starting our family. We needed a space for my family and had to find other means to supplement our mortgage payments towards an enormous debt.
Being a Filipina in my genes gives me the natural advantage as our culture generally has the reputation of being one of the most hospitable beings in the world. We generally love to entertain and feel connected with our guests, and given some time, we eventually feel like family or close friends.
Having a natural talent and eye for art, I've personalized all our suites at Mistiso's Place & Morning Star with its own distinct and unique character. Each suite is a unique space for anybody who appreciates personal touches and artsy, eclectic decor. I'm a Virgo, so I tend to be a perfectionist and pay great attention to detail.
Why do I host? The guests, my co-workers, and the knowledge, wisdom, & friendships that I've gained over the years make this the best job for me ever! I genuinely enjoy & LOVE what I have gotten to do every day for the last 20 years.
Seeing smiles, hearing stories, & reading glowing reviews online make all the hard work pleasurable. These validations give my team and me great joy & satisfaction to know that we're doing something good for the world- one stay at a time.
