Lodge in The Woods, Nelson
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, which is full of restaurants, arts, culture and nightlife. 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 majestic forests, snow capped mountains and Kootenay Lake.
This is a 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom home on a private 15 acre retreat with soaring trees, bubbling creeks, a 60’ waterfall and access to a secluded beach.
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. 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.
