About this property

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.

4 old guys on a ski trip

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.

Fantastic Heritage House in Nelson!

We just finished a six night stay in February at this fantastic location. The house is a 120 year old gem just a 7 minute walk from the city centre that has had just the right amount of updating to provide modern comforts while maintaining a heritage feel in keeping with the City of Nelson. Tastefully decorated, the house has five large bedrooms each with a comfortable queen or king size bed, one of which is a "loft" (basically, the upper floor) with a pull out couch for additional sleeping. Each room has ample storage space, the kitchen is modern, with every utensil you could consider. One modern bathroom, and one older Victorian style (claw tub with shower and separate toilet facilities - brought me back to houses of my youth). Full laundry facilities. The back of the house has a great little deck with a view of the road coming into town and the Slocan river snaking away in towards Castlegar. The house is very close to town (five/six minutes there, a few extra back - it is up the hill from Nelson). Nelson itself has lots of great little restaurants, coffee houses and bars, and cute shopping opportunities - far more than you would expect in a city of its size (about 10,500). There is lots to do around Nelson (we spent most of our time skiing at Whitewater - similarly deserving of a rave review). The host (Kristin) is super responsive and helpful, and maintains a very clean house. Loved it, will definitely return.

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.

Ski trip with friends

The house is great. Large enough for 6 guys each having their own room except the two sharing the loft. The house is very nice, comfortable and has way more extras that any other house we've stayed at. The pictures did not do the place justice. I was a bit concerned how it would be because the pictures were so bad. We took a chance and it was worth it. The house has such old world charm but with newer furnishings, lots of outlets, big enough kitchen to cook and great view of the lake from the Kitchen and Livingroom. It has apple tv with many subscriptions and plenty of room for all of us to hang out. Its about a 10min walk to most places downtown so we didn't drive once we got home from the ski hill. Kristen was extremely quick to respond when we couldn't get the door open(hopefully they change the electric lock). I highly recommend staying here. We'll be back.
