About this property
Lodge in "The Woods Nelson" with Lake Views
Come and get away from it all in the West Kootenays. This is a mountain Lodge just minutes away from the eclectic town of Nelson. It’s an ideal place for you and your family to unwind or work remotely; with high speed internet, large windows providing plentiful light, and spectacular views of a majestic forest and snow capped mountains.
This is a 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom home on a private 15 acre retreat with soaring trees, a bubbling creeks, a 60’ waterfall and a private beach on Kootenay Lake.
The space:
Welcome to The Woods!
Two upstairs bedrooms have queen-sized beds and carefully selected furnishings. The third upstairs bedroom features 2 double beds and a single bed that can also be used as a relaxing day bed. It is perfect for children or multiple couples. The forth bedroom is located on the main floor so it is an excellent option for those with mobility issues. It contains a queen bed, toy chest and a play nook for children (or those young at heart). This room sets the stage for wonderful sleep as this dark space has no windows to let in daylight. Each bedroom has crisp white sheets, cozy throw pillows and has been designed to facilitate deep mountain rest.
The third bedroom also contains a large desk and office chair in front of a sun filled picture window. Printer is available upon request. It’s a stunning place to get a little work done!
The kitchen is fully equipped with everything required for a quiet dinner at home. A large farm style dining room table allows for joyous family meals.
The free standing claw foot tub in the upper floor bathroom is a wonderful way to soak off a long day adventuring in the mountains. This room also features a shower. The second bathroom, which in on the main floor, contains a shower. Laundry facilities (washer/dryer) are also available on the main floor.
We are grateful to have high speed internet powered by satellite and we make every effort to ensure you have an uninterrupted WiFi connection. For your entertainment there is a pool table, dartboard, TV with AppleTV (with Netflix, Disney+ and Prime) and games.
Directly behind the lodge, you can savour your own dedicated outdoor space. A large back yard and fire pit awaits you. It’s perfect for enjoying the picturesque setting anytime of day.

We are located 15 minutes west of Nelson on Highway 3A, part of the breathtaking Selkirk Loop. Situated on a mountainside just off the highway but secluded enough to take you away from it all.
From the Lodge, you can hear the sound of a nearby creek, meander along the property’s many pathways, and catch an occasional glimpse of roaming elk, deer and even turkeys. A stunning walk through the forest takes you to a secluded beach on the shores of Kootenay Lake. It's simply breathtaking.
