Family-friendly vacation rentals in Nelson

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.

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.

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.

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

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!

Great spot, easy walk to the slopes. They have thought of a lot of details. There is a lock to lock up your skis, a great mudroom to store and dry your gear, even a boot heater. The one downside is there were almost no throw blankets. Hard to curl up next to a fire without blankets. It was -16 while we were there so a little chili even in the cabin.

My family and I enjoyed staying at the Chalet; great place to stay if you want to be close to nature. 10 min drive to downtown Nelson. We loved using the hot tub after a long hike. Our dogs enjoyed running around the property!

The Silvertip is a quiet, spacious condo in beautiful mountain surroundings. The beds are comfortable and larger than in the photos. The best part was the close proximity to the base of the mountain. We skied right to the chairlifts and the hot tub was great at the end of the day after skiing!

What a wonderful stay! I think there are several factors that have me feeling rejuvenated. All of the natural building elements, wood, hand made tiles, clay, and earthen floor, ( with such intentional design and colors), create both a very calming and cozy environment. Large windows bring in lots of light. The place is kept very clean. The bath tub is luxuriously large. And the quiet of the house in this rural setting did wonders for my sleep. Peggy was very responsive and a great host! Staying at the Fabulous Farmhouse Suite was such an easy way to detox from the city, feel refreshed and inspired. You won’t find another spot like this !

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!

We had a Dad‘s mountain biking weekend in Rossland and this was the perfect house to accommodate all of us. Lots of space to spread out over multiple levels. A real feast for the eyes with lots of artwork and unique decor at every turn. All the amenities we needed were there, including some great coffee and selection of teas to start the day. The ping pong table was also a hit as we battled it out for king of the table. Would definitely stay there again if in the area and it would even be great for a couple of families. Thanks for hosting us Phil!

It's an absolutely lovely home with an amazing view and beautiful natural surroundings. The house is spotless and well equipped with everything you need. The views from the large deck were such a wonderful surprise. The ferry ride back and forth from the town of Nelson was an added delight for us. All in all this home was fantastic and I would highly recommend for other travelers.

This place is a dream. Just stunning. Pictures don’t do the view justice. We sat and watched hummingbirds on the deck at sunset, and woke up to the incredible sunrise in the morning from bed. The rental was very well equipped with nice pots, pans, cutting boards, etc. appreciated the nice coffee and French press machine.

We really enjoyed staying in Joan's cabin, it is a beautiful property and there is a nice little hike to a waterfall from the cabin. She was very responsive and helpful, we would come here again!!

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

Beautiful hand built cabin in a wonderful woodland private location, Amazing hosts and lots to do in the area

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!

Staying at Maria's place was everywhere would have hoped. It was only a few blocks from the heart of downtown & the river, yet it was so private and cozy. Plenty of room for myself and 2 friends. Inside the house were perfect pairings of antiques and artful touches. I'm so glad we stayed there and will choose it 100% of the time when I come to Nelson again.

Maria’s Kokanee suite was wonderful! The neighbourhood was quiet, location was convenient for walking to most places. It’s a bit tricky to find so be sure to follow her directions exactly. Maria responded quickly to any questions we had. She provided a helpful guide to the suite and the area. The bed was comfy, the kitchen was well stocked with essentials and there were even bath salts for use in the gorgeous tub. Because the suite is in the attic space of an older home, the ceilings are sloped at the sides. It did get quite warm but there are fans and an air conditioner. We would definitely stay again.

The cabin is spacious and has a well stocked kitchen. Pretty much everything you need. The location was great, easy access to the ski hill.

Maria was such a delightful host. She greeted us upon arrival and made sure we had everything we needed including some restaurant recommendations. The apartment was exactly how it is described and it was very well appointed with a lot of personal touches. We would definitely reserve this unit or another of her places if we return to Nelson. What a great little spot. Thank you for taking such good care of us.

This was a beautiful setting, so peaceful and quiet, with great amenities -flush toilets, showers, and an indoor kitchen if needed. We were impressed by the comfortable community room, complete with wifi. Tom is a great host: available, attentive, and respectful. We will be back.

Will stay again

Great place with a short walk to the lifts. Highly recommended!
