“Peaceful, relaxing and welcoming.”
The location was great- quiet, peaceful, well cared for and yet a short drive from the main Hub of Nelson. The manager was so kind, sweet and gracious. The beds were so comfy and the rooms were clean with air conditioning and a full kitchenette. Perfect for what we needed and when in the area will definitely stay again.

“Okay but wouldn’t go back”
It was convenient for going to Kokanee Glacier Provincial Park to hike the next day. It had plenty of room and a good view of the lake and mountains. The restaurant was good (if you like Chinese/Asian food) and the owner was very helpful.
