About this property

Fabulous Property
This cottage was exactly what we were looking for. Completely private and secluded including the beach (which appeared to have had the sand raked prior to our arrival! Unexpected and appreciated!) The cottage was immaculate and anything one might need was provided) The quintessential cottage experience! There is some traffic noise from nearby highway but it didn't bother us . Highly recommend!

About the host

Hosted by Chris Ubick

Host profile image
Our mother, Janet, purchased this property in 1928 when the best way to get there was by boat from Nelson. She taught school in Nelson and loved the outdoors. It was an apple farm and the old house that they used for camping is right next door the the cottage (which Janet and her husband built in 1964). Our cousins live in the next two houses along the lake and step in as property hosts while we are away.

Why they chose this property

Janet's parents moved to Nelson in the 1890's and her father, Alexander Carrie, was the architect of many of the historic buildings in downtown Nelson. But the biggest reason they all stayed is the beauty of the Kootenays.

What makes this property unique

The house is comfortable, the beach is relaxing, the views are spectacular and there are so many activities minutes away but you won't want to leave.
