Backyard Guesthouse near Nelson w/ Hot Tub
Unwind in this peaceful backyard guesthouse, just a short drive from downtown Nelson. Enjoy a private hot tub, seperate queen bedroom, fully equipped kitchen, cozy living area with fireplace and TV, and a secure storage shed for your bikes or ski gear. Level 2 EV charger is available upon request. Perfect for a quiet retreat or a base for nearby trail adventures.
The property on in a semi-rural area. Guests are welcome to walk in the backyard and enjoy the forest space at the back of the property as well.
Please note access to guesthouse is through the grassy backyard area, approximately 80m from the dedicated parking space. We have some lights but if you're arriving at dark, you may want to use an additional flashlight or phone light.
Other things to note
-please ensure any dogs are on-leash when outside
-If you would like to use the EV charger, please let me know ahead of time and I'll provide parking instructions for this
- although the guesthouse area is private, guests are required to walk through our grassy backyard (less than 100m) to reach the front door. We clear a path in the winter if there is snow.
- there are chickens on the property near the guesthouse. Don't worry - no roosters!
- the cell reception is not the best depending on your carrier
