The Crest - Unit 1
The epitome of ski in ski out. This is a masterclass in a ski holiday rental. Parking included, hot tub, sauna, equipment dryer, ski lockers, ski waxing bench, comfortable beds, entrance to the ski run, amazing game room, recliners, fireplace, bbq… what else could you want. This was literally perfect for our trip. Book with confidence.

Eaglewood Vacation Home
Spent a lovely long weekend in this beautiful suite. Loved everything, great host, lots of space and everything is as written. Will definitely return.

Lofts 1
Great location and excellent host! It’s walking distance to the ski hill/resort, which made for an easy morning commute. The hot tubs were the best part — coming home to them after a day of skiing was a beautiful thing.

Ski-In Slopeside Chalet Red Mountain, Rossland, BC
Our stay here was great! Scott is a very welcoming and responsive host. The space was very enjoyable, comfortable and provided all the perfect amenities after a day on the slopes.

Red Mountain Powderhouse
Powder House was an ideal ski in/out accommodation for our ski group, and I would highly recommend it to others looking for an affordable, comfortable place to enjoy a ski vacation..Brian MacKinnon, Fernie, British Columbia

Unbeatable Ski Chalet at the Base of Red
The house at RED was truly awesome. Our group loved the house and it worked so well for us. Our athletes thrived being close to hill with very early wake up calls!

Private Mountainside Log Cabin, 10mins from Nelson
This was our second time staying at the whitewater chalet! As soon as our group decided to head back out to Nelson for some skiing, we knew we had to stay at the cabin again. It couldn’t be closer to the mountain or feel more secluded. The hot tub is an added bonus after a long day of skiing. The only thing to note is that the pillows could be better on the beds but for our group, it was a minor detail. Thanks for the great stay!

Carolyn's Corner
Great stay all around. Thank you for the trip!

Picturesque & Cozy Cabin: Amazing views! BBQ
Maria is an excellent host! We had a couple issues but she addressed the one immediately (unfunctioning lock) and I'm sure she'll fix the other pronto too- the listing implies more beds than exist. There's one in the bedroom, one in the loft and a foldout futon. All are comfortable. The space is very clean. The views are very nice. The cabin is very nicely outfitted with appropriate but unique furniture. The kitchen is well outfitted too. The space was very private and the deck a nice place to gather. Highly recommend both the host and any of her properties!

Life is Better on Kootenay Lake!
We were looking for a quiet and peaceful weekend and we definitely found it. Beautiful views and very quiet area. Candace was very quick to respond to our questions. Would definitely return.

Rossland Guest House. Business Licenses #4789
Best air bnb stay I have ever had! Pictures do not do this home justice. Absolutely stunning and the entire home is a work of art. The detail and craftsman ship was amazing. You easily feel relaxed and at home. The local mountain was 10/10 skiing. Everything about this trip exceeded expectations. Thank you, thank you!

Black Dog Studio AirBnB
We very much enjoyed our stay at Black Dog. The host was very cordial and did an excellent job in showing us around the loft. It was very clean and had all the amenities that we needed for our stay. Unfortunately the weather wasn’t great so we didn’t have a chance to use the great deck that Black Dog has, which also has a barbecue. Will definitely go back to Black Dog b&b.

Kootenay Lake Cabin, on Historic Estate
The Kingfisher Cabin came as advertised and then some. From the moment we arrived it was clear we had landed in a special location. The home was clean, comfortable and incredibly well organized with notes of instruction placed in the most thoughtful locations. The grounds were impeccable and well laid out with plenty of “toys”, trails and historical signage providing opportunity for adults and children alike to wander and play. If you are looking for some fairy garden like tranquility within close proximity of all the artisan markets of Crawford Bay and off the beaten path of the regular tourist trap hotspots then Joan’s place is the one for you! Would absolutely stay here again!

Kaslo Getaway - Private and Natural Experience
Great little spot! Beautiful home. Beds were comfortable and the location was great with a beautiful view. We would definitely rent again

Logden Lodge - Gold Cup Cabin

Log cabin for 8 - location, location, location!
It was a great stay at lakefront chalet. Super clean, fireplace outside, woodstove, fast Internet aand much more! Looking forward to come back and enjoy more time spent away from busy city. Claudia is responsive and super helpfull!

Lakeside retreat - Lodge
Ina’s place is a beautiful little slice of heaven. It was exactly what we were looking for in terms of peaceful location with waterfront access. We enjoyed our time on the very spacious dock and using the provided SUP and kayaks. Thanks Ina!

Annie's Bed and Breakfast
We had a wonderful stay at Annie’s place! She was incredibly welcoming and took the time to explain everything we needed to know. The space was spotless, cozy, and beautifully maintained. The location is perfect — close to Nelson yet peaceful and relaxing. We truly enjoyed our time here and would definitely stay again. Highly recommend!

The Mountain Project #2
Our stay at the Mountain Project #2 was absolutely perfect for our weekend ski getaway at Red Mtn Resort. It fit 8 adults super comfortably. The place is modern, spotless, extremely well stocked with high quality linens and lovely locally hand made soaps and bath and body products. The place has beautiful high ceilings and amazing quality furniture. The kitchen has everything you need for cooking meals, there is a bbq and the living room is comfortable and cozy with a nice TV and sound system. The ski lifts are a 5 minute walk away. Tristan was extremely attentive and accommodating. It is also very good value! I highly recommend this Airbnb for any stay at Red Mtn and we hope to be back again in the summer for hiking or winter for skiing! Amazing place!!

2BR Guest House On Farm
The cottage was beautiful, clean and cozy. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen was fully stocked and the location was perfect for the fall colors and exploring opportunities. I wish we could have stayed longer.

Nelson Garden Sanctuary
Great place for our small family. This was our second time staying here- we appreciate the cozy space within walking distance of downtown, yard area for more outside time, and space to store our skis at the end of the day.

Beautiful downtown 3 bedroom home
Great place! We intended to camp for 5 days with our 1yo but with daily rain in forecast, we pivoted and last minute asked Miguel to stay. He was very welcoming, super communicative both on info about the house and local recommendations. 3BR 1.5BA was great and cozy/comfortable to stay with an infant. Many couches to lounge while baby slept, and he loved it too :) We cooked from kitchen many times, has all the things you could need for a short stay. Beds comfortable. Superb location, just some steps down to get to Coop for groceries, and we often walked to Oso Negro for morning coffee. Quite residential area but easily access downtown for restaurants and shops. Friendly neighbors. We have a small car so didn't struggle, but private parking spot was key though large vehicles may be tricky to get in. Highly recommend, and hope to be back!

Kootenay Digs
Becky was a great host and our team of photographers enjoyed their stay. Everything was as advertised.

Tranquility at Kootenay Lake
Super cute cabin in a beautiful location! Patti was a great host, making herself both available while giving guests their space. Very much enjoyed the heated floors as well!!
