Perfect place by Kootenay Lake!
Stayed with friends for a recent ski trip to Nelson. What a beautiful location! The hot tub on the deck is the perfect place to unwind after a busy day, and the view is phenomenal! Very well-appointed listing, and an extremely comfortable place to stay. Shelley was great to deal with and always quick to respond. We’re looking forward to staying here again!!!

Family Get together
The house and location are perfect for a family getaway. its a little bit off the beaten path which is perfect for privacy. Unfortunately we had record breaking cold temperatures which kept us indoors but the large dining room table was perfect for us to stay indoors and play board games. The view of the lake was stunning, I'm coming back in the summer and take advantage of the beach access!

We stayed for a few nights during winter and enjoyed the hot tub, spacious property and all of the amenities that the property had to offer. It would be great to come back in summer as the beach property would be amazing.

Family Getaway
This stay was perfect for a family getaway consisting of four adults and our lab. We stayed for a few nights during the week, and there weren’t any guests in the adjacent suite so we had the beach to ourselves. Shelley, who recently purchased the property, was quick to communicate and address a few minor items for us. We would stay here again!

Annual Koots Trip
We do a trip a year to the Kootenays with another family, making us a large group of 9 plus 2 dogs. Finding the right property on the lake and close to biking plus town is critical to keeping everyone happy. The Hideway has it all and was the first property in 5 years to check all the boxes. We’ll be back!

Hidden Gem
The property is in a secluded neighborhood just outside Nelson right on the lake. By GPS it is a bit tricky to find, but less so if you follow the excellent directions provided by the host. We stayed three nights on a family ski trip to Whitewater. I would not hesitate to stay there again.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here as a getaway for my partner’s 30th. The deck area with hot tub was a particular highlight. The place was also ideal for our group of 8 and everyone had their own space. Would love to come back in the summer months! Liam

Enchanting Vacay
This property is beautiful and enchanting! My family had a fabulous time. Everything we needed was there. The beds were comfortable, the yellow bedroom had the softest sheets I've every slept on! The kitchen was fully stocked with every tool, appliance and utensil you would want! Jim and his family were kind and accommodating. He messaged me prior to our arrival and was available whenever I had questions. It was our first time in Nelson, so we spent a good portion of our time out and about. Next time, we want to plan less things to do so we can sit on that ginormous deck and relax.

Great spot!
The beach and outdoor space were highlights for us! The kitchen is big but not much pantry space to store food that’s purchased. The downstairs tv didn’t turn on, seemed to be missing an Apple TV or box? There are small couches in the downstairs bedrooms which was handy (they do not pull out). There aren’t blinds on the windows so if you have young kids bringing a black out blind would be beneficial. The hot tub was in good shape and really clean. Overall the with the proximity to town along with the private beach, this place is hard to beat!

Comfortable.
The directions to get to the house need improvement. Google maps takes you to the wrong location which is a very narrow road that you have to reverse down. The owners seem to be aware of this but hadn't improved the directions. The house is well laid out, but had too much stuff in it. The excessive decorative decor took away from functionality. The kitchem cupboards specifically have way too much decorative stuff on them so you have no where to put things. The house also lacked basic supplies like a BBQ lighter, paper towels, ziploc bags, foil, garbage bags, scissors etc. I mention this for the benefit of others. The advertisement shows camp fire pits and a fireplace, but there was no firewood. They finally got firewood on the last night, but we had already spent ridiculous amounts at a gas station the prior 4 nights to have firewood. Don't expect to have a fire unless you are ok buying your own firewood. The beach is nice and many water toys are supplied for use. This was great. Dogs are not leashed on this property at all. There was people not cleaning up after their dogs so that was gross. The dogs were seen multiple times going to the bathroom on the beach. It was chaos at times with the number of dogs loose and excessive barking. Overall I'd give this place a 3.5 star.

Perfect lakeside holiday
Everything about our stay was beyond our expectations. Our own beach access to the stunning lake including canoes, kayaks and even buckets and spades for the littlies. We loved our visits to Nelson downtown and Parks and then coming home to a soak in the hot-tub. Jim and Jess were very helpful and accommodating hosts. We absolutely loved our Nelson holiday.

Nice getaway spot on the water !
We are a group of 6, middle aged gals who have been friends for 30+ years. We take an annual vacation together & decided Hickmans provided what we needed. It's a great little property- be aware the train tracks are quite close & i didn't realize when we booked. It's a beautiful retreat. we do talk very loud & laugh & love music, I'm not sure the tenant upstairs enjoyed it. There were a couple minor issues (hot tub, cans left, dog stealing our food!) Haha..... but Jess the caretaker made sure everything was remedied & did her best to ensure we were accommodated! So if you're looking for a quiet family get away, on the water & away from the hustle & bustle, this is your place! Pet friendly & lots of space on the beach & great walking areas.
