Fantastic property! The location is perfect, within very easy walking distance of everything you need or want in Nelson. The apartment is very well equipped and was perfectly presented. It is the little touches that really make you feel welcome. The kitchen knives were sharp - which tells me that the owner cares! Communication with the owner was smooth and easy. I highly recommend this unit if you are looking for a stay in the area.

Fantastic Location, Even Better Host

This place, this location, this host proved to be even better than advertised, which I didn't think was possible. Right off the bat, our host, Erin, immediately reached out to thank us for booking and see if there was anything that we may need. The back and forth dialogue was cordial, sincere and made me feel comfortable to reach out at any point, if needed. As we neared our arrival, Erin spelled out all that was needed to approach the pad as plainly and concisely as one would want. From then on, there were the little things, such as a kind note welcoming us along with a message, here and there, to make sure all was well. The house book was spot on, leaving directions on what was expected during our stay along with directions of how to close the house down. Anything we needed, such as towels, beach towels, etc, was there for us. We also received some recommendations about town. Nelson is a wonderful town, and if you are looking to visit there, make it even better by working with Erin. She genuinely cares and made us feel at home. I sincerely appreciate the impressive effort to make this a worthwhile trip. Thank you.

We stayed the the Downtown Mountain Getaway for two nights while mountain biking in the area. The place was just perfect! Very clean, well appointed, conveniently located with a parking space, it was everything we could have wanted.

Wonderful condo in the heart of downtown Nelson

The condo was beautiful and clean. Many small touches made us feel very welcome. The mattress was firm and super comfortable. Everything works! In-unit washer & dryer was handy. Erin really hit it out of the park with her attentiveness and helpfulness ... she responded to all communications quickly and with the information we needed. In particular, she pointed us to two tire stores in town when we needed to replace a blown out tire. Both places were incredibly nice (one didn't have the tire we needed, which is why we visited both) and OK Tire took care of us in record time. I highly recommend Erin's condo if you are staying in Nelson!The picture is the view from the condo's balcony.

Impeccable Pied a Terre in the heart of Nelson

This property and the property manager Erin, set the highest standard for a VRBO property. The apartment was sparkling clean, bright, quiet, and fully equipped down to the most minute details, for the busy traveler. Probably, the nicest VRBO that I've stayed in; If I could give 6 stars, I would.

The property was very clean with attention to detail - the kitchen was especially well provisioned. The owner was quick to reply via messaging to questions that I had.

Erin’s Apartment Downtown Nelson BC

My wife and I loved Erin’s apartment. We stayed a week and enjoyed every minute of it. The apartment is a block or so from the busiest part of town which is nice because it is close to all the restaurants and shops but very quiet later in the evening. Situated on the fifth floor, the apartment has balcony with a great view of the river and surrounding mountains. The apartment was spotless, well organized and very comfortable. Everything we needed was provided. We would definitely stay here again during future visits to Nelson.
