Beautiful location for visiting Nelson. Walk downtown in minutes. Privacy, solitude, and a descent parking spot under a tree.

As a family with young kids, this place was so great. The kids had lots of space to explore and great walking paths near by. Very quick drive to downtown and suite location was quiet. Complimentary wine was also lovely 😀 We will definitely stay again. Great hosts!

Had a great stay at the Willow Suite.
I arrived on a motorcycle and the final 300m to the property is a fairly steep gravel approach. Going up and down on a bike needed a bit of care, but was perfectly doable. Its about twenty minutes walk to downtown and a fairly intimidating walk back to the property, given its elevation.
Great views off the deck over the lake. The property is nice an quiet, and exactly as described in the listing.
I'd be very happy to stay here again.

This suite was everything we could have asked for. A very spacious and welcoming living, dining and kitchen area. The kitchen had all the utensils we needed and everything was nicely placed. The suite was very clean and the bathroom was huge! Both bedrooms were large enough with plenty of space for hanging clothes, etc. Everything seemed to be taken care of and we really didn't want for anything. An absolutely great place to stay!
I would however strongly recommend an all wheel vehicle as the road up is a challenging climb.
Thank you Catherine and Andrew. We hope to be back someday soon.

A very well thought out place everything you need. Cooking was simple great dishes and quality pots, living room couch and bed so comfy, big bathroom cool tiles for the dog to sleep on for those hot Nelson days. Loved sitting out on the porch for morning coffee in the trees looking at the water. Felt very well taken care of by Andrew. Enjoyed biking and walking on rail trail and canoeing. Perfect holiday.
Thank you for a lovely stay.

Really nice place with great view.
Winter drive up/down steep driveway, so winter tires and 4-wheel drive is ideal. Owner does his best to sand driveway.

This property lived up to its billing in every way. Quiet getaway for my Birthday. Lovely region and location. Property was very clean and well appointed. Well equipped kitchen was functional and open. The gas fireplace was a welcome amenity as the weather was little cool. Large bathroom was terrific. The only drawback was the steep gravel driveway. 4 wheel drive or at the very least, front wheel drive is necessary especially in the winter. Overall excellent property. Five stars all around.

It was close to downtown. Lots of hills to maneuver both directions. Recommend you have 4-wheel drive to get up to the property, even in the summer. Very quiet and relaxing.

great first visit to Nelson
Nice 2 br basement suite with a patio with a little view of the lake. Right next to the rail trail, which made for great morning and evening walks. Reasonably well-equipped kitchen. Very relaxing all around. Easy drive into town, but also very walkable for those who don't mind walking up hill on the way back.

Really clean, well equipped place in an excellent location. We took our dog on the rail trail every day, just 100 metres away. Highly recommended!

Great place to Stay
The unit was exactly as advertised and very clean and comfortable. Great location for getting to town and to the rail trail. It is under the owners house so you can hear them moving around but they are mostly very quiet. We would definitely rent here again.

As the title states
Good place to experience Nelson from.
The suite had all what one could ask for, for the wonderful price.
Close to downtown Nelson but felt like it was miles away - which was great.
Great location. Minutes to the walking and biking trail...which was used daily by us.
Only 20 minutes walk to downtown.
What would have improved the experience was if we had the view of the river. Leaves on trees which created lovely shade and sounds, marred the view.
Having the owners upstairs was not an issue.
Thank you to Andrew and family.

Amazing! The photos don't do justice to this little piece of paradise
We arrived on Christmas eve to a beautifully presented property and welcoming Christmas cookies and Christmas tree. The property is nice and quiet, absolutely picturesque. Nothing was a problem and the owners were great!
A short lovely walk landed us in stunning Baker St and a small taxi fare got us back up the hill :) We all were sad to leave and would love the opportunity to visit again! The apartment was well appointed!

Very pleasant stay
Location was great for walking the trail. We hope to come back in the fall when we can take advantage of the hiking and biking trails. Suite was very nice and comfortable for the two of us.

Cosy and private home away from home!
We stayed at this VRBO for three weeks while we explored the Nelson area. We found it cosy, welcoming and quite private. It backs onto the Trans Canada Trail (and lots of mountain biking/hiking) and has spectacular views of Nelson and the lake. We wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again.

Another Awesome visit at our 'home away from home' in Nelson
This was our 4th time staying at the Willow Guest Suite. Andy and Catherine are wonderful hosts. The suite is the perfect location overlooking the City and so close to town. There are walking trails up to the right of the property but we've always had too much to do to take time to explore them.
We came to Nelson to Celebrate our 1st Anniversary as we got married here last year at this time. We really like Jacksons Hole for dinner, or the Hume hotel.
Thanks again Andy and Catherine, I'm sure we'll be back ~
