Cozy and Cute cottage with yard 10 minutes from Nelson

The Bear's den is a great place to be, nice, clean and cozy. The hosts showed incredible hospitality and we are planning to return to the Bear's den in the future.

Great hosts and well equipped.

As it says a cute and cozy cottage. We were visiting our son in Nelson. Arik and Michelle are excellent hosts with great communication pre and while we were there. Very responsive to any questions we had. It was so nice to have some fresh fruit on arrival and some milk in the fridge as well as basic condiments. Nice to sit outside on the porch and just a great relaxing vibe. Well equipped with a bbq and anything you need to cook indoors. Comfortable beds and great to have the washer and dryer! All round an excellent property on the outskirts of town by very easily accessible.

Friendly host and a cozy cottage :) perfectly suited our needs (and we even got to play some air hockey)

Awesome CleanPerfect stay

House was pet ready; location was perfect for my purpose and the host was lovely.

Dog friendly, great owners, perfect location

Excellent stay. I recommend this property for everyone

Great hosts! Shared their knowledge of the area and all their recommendations did not disappoint. Our girls had a great time and us Granties loved the porch! I’m a puzzler and it was perfect for this. Shaded with great views. 10/10 would recommend. Loved it!

This cabin was nice and quiet, well-stocked, and close to Nelson and Sproule Creek Trail. Dog-friendly, and my dog loved it.

A great value! Exactly as described. Really generous stocking of cooking supplies and treats in the kitchen. Hosts are fantastic - great communication and helpful. Highly recommended.

Stayed in the cabin for a week. The hosts are awesome and so was our stay. The cabin is in a great location and had everything a person needed to be comfortable. Pet friendly and a pet friendly neighborhood too. The bonfire pit on the front lawn was so much fun. Thanks guys….I’ll be back for sure!

Everything about our stay was perfect. The cottage was like described but even a little better. Aric and Meesh were the best hosts and left very thoughtful treats for our stay. Can't wait to come stay again and visit Nelson in the summer.

Lovely place. Comfortable, homey and so many extras! We were so busy with all the wedding activity, but we did take a little time for our morning coffee, watching wild turkeys on the lawn. Highly reccommend the Bears Den. Thank you watchingbthe wild turkeys.

Cozy cottage perfectly situated for us between Nelson and Crescent Valley. Ambient lighting and fresh flowers made it a welcoming place to stay! Can’t wait to go back again!

We really enjoyed our stay at this place, it was very cozy and felt like we are living in rural county. Host was amazing and provided the information what we were looking for. I would really recommend this place to all if you are planning to stay in Nelson.

We visited Nelson in early July 2024. This cottage is set against a mountain forest with a bear feasting on cherries some nights. It's near the town of Nelson, but the property is more level than much of Nelson, and has plenty of parking space, relative seclusion, and a great place for a dog to roam without being close to a highway. Our hosts, Aric and Meesh, were wonderful and offered us fresh lavender from their garden. There is cut firewood and a fire ring if you like to sit by campfire. The cottage is simple, but clean and has all amenities including full kitchen and bathroom that includes washer and dryer. We enjoyed mornings on the porch drinking coffee and the proximity to everything in town. I highly recommend this retreat for your lodging needs near Nelson.

This was a great location for our day trips to halcyon and ainsworth Hot springs. Also a nice hike along the Kaslo River and a tour of the Moyie Sternwheeler. The hosts are very accommodating, responsive, and kind. We cooked a lot of meals in the home, and there are lots of pots and pans, cooking and eating utensils, salt and pepper, and food basics like butter, olive oil, condiments. No microwave, so keep that in mind. We would love to come back to the area and stay more nights.
