My Certified Wildlife Friendly Secret Garden:

I fell in love with my property the minute I exited the car, heard the nearby creek, and felt the cooling breezes on a 32 degree day. I put in the best offer I could after the 12 hour drive back home through the Monashee range.

The property has a native woodlot, with beautiful perennial gardens and a abundant creek source water supply. Located in the peaceful country-side but not too far from town, two hotsprings and amenities.

For years I looked for a place to establish a boutique lavender farm. The night time cool and crisp air of the property produces highly aromatic, slow grown lavender.

Spring through Fall are the best with maximum enjoyment of the beautiful forested yard. The original owners ran a goldsmith shop and made the local town's folk wedding jewelry.

I use the "shop" to distill lavender now. I like the idea of others being able to enjoy the benefits of forest and garden therapy and I hope my guests will enjoy all those features as much as I do. Swimming in the Arrow Lake at the nearby sandy semi private beach is a gift. I was used to driving for hours in the city. Endless sand and dunes appear as the levels of the lake drop, for dogs walks, paddling and private swimming spots.

I am happy to share the special feeling of this property and site and look forward to hearing from my guests about their experiences here.

GLAMPING VENUE
The property has zones for glamping events and I would like to develop the property to include therapy focused features in the near future.

Why they chose this property

Rural country living is less crowded and simpler. Living life outdoors is the highlight. I wanted an acre to enjoy gardening activities. Evenings are quiet with beautiful sunsets, and the boat launch is so convenient to the town. Nakusp has the most beautiful & famous perennial flower beds of any Kootenay town, designed and maintained by a local celebrity gardener. Many tourists can be seen on any day photographing them. The public beach is conveniently located in town next to a playground and spacious park for families. There are some great restaurants and eateries and coffeeshops with outdoor patios as well as a handmade chocolates shop!

What makes this property unique

Established flower gardens, a variety of wildlife, and native tree woodlot zones. The property is graced with cooling breezes due to the slight grade and creek draw. The air is fresh and invigorating and evenings quiet and peaceful. Walking distance to many local beaches, and the golf course & nearby boat launch. A cider distillery is 20 minutes away with awesome food and many varieties of apple cider. Location is close to the Okanagan corridor to Vernon. If you are lucky you may see many astonishing moths like the Hummingbird moths that visit the Phlox flowers in the afternoon and evening. It is great to have the feeling of camping, the lake and golf, with the peace and serenity of your own space and comforts of home.
