Enchanted Gypsy Wagon · Cozy Forest Hideaway with Private Deck

Looking for a unique place to stay in Nelson, BC?

Meet Bitty Bunky — our tiny-but-mighty micro cabin on wheels. This handcrafted Gypsy Wagon retreat is tucked into the trees and designed for couples, solo travelers, and adventure seekers craving something truly special.

Bitty Bunky blends rustic charm with modern comfort for a memorable stay in the heart of the Kootenays. Wake up to birdsong, breathe in fresh mountain air, and enjoy the simple magic of slow mornings in nature.

Whether you’re here for hiking, mountain biking, lake days, skiing, or a romantic reset, this little hideaway offers a cozy base with big character.

What you’ll love
• A one-of-a-kind handcrafted Gypsy Wagon with beautiful wood details and cozy charm
• Comfortable sleeping space for 1–2 guests
• Plush bedding and fresh linens
• A private side deck for coffee, stargazing, or an evening glass of wine
• Peaceful forest setting with the convenience of being minutes from downtown Nelson

Shared amenities (included)
To make glamping easy and comfortable, you’ll have access to thoughtfully maintained shared spaces:
• Three-piece bathroom
• Outdoor toilet and outdoor shower for nature-lovers
• Fully equipped communal kitchen for self-catering
• Central fire pit area for cozy evenings
• Sauna for post-adventure relaxation (a guest favourite!) and outdoor clawfoot tub for an invigorating cold plunge!

Nature at your doorstep
Follow a winding trail into the serene forest and discover your own quiet corner of the woods. Unwind in a hammock surrounded by trees, listen to the breeze, and let the stress melt away. This is a place to unplug, reset, and reconnect — with nature, with a partner, or with yourself.

Location
Bitty Bunky feels wonderfully secluded, yet you’re close to everything: Nelson’s cafes, restaurants, artsy downtown vibe, beaches, and endless trails. It’s the best of both worlds — forest calm and town convenience.

Good to know
Bitty Bunky is a small, intentional space designed for comfort and simplicity. If you love unique stays, cozy nooks, and the feeling of being nestled in nature, you’ll adore it here.

Come and experience Bitty Bunky — tiny in size, mighty in soul, and always remembered long after you leave.
