Description
HI, We live on a 2 acres property that overlooks the Kootenay Lake. We are just 6 miles out of the town center and our space is full of trees, gardens, flowers and wildlife! We are a family of 9 with only a few young adults living at home - which gives us the opportunity to share space with you!!!
Our home is welcoming and we are interested in meeting new people, working together and sharing the gems that Nelson has to offer. My partner is an amazing cook and I am always happy to share the local hikes and beaches. We have one very friendly dog and two equally interested cats.
WE ARE LOOKING FOR SOMEONE TO HELP REPAIR OUR GARDEN FENCE AND GENERAL SPRING YARD AND GARDEN PREP.
LIGHT WOODWORKING EXPERIENCE IS HELPFUL.
Looking forward to meeting and hosting you!
Warmly,
Jodi

What else ...
There are so many things to do in Nelson, BC, for any first-timer to the area. Every time we visit the charming town of Nelson, we instantly fall in love all over again. Situated right in the rugged Selkirk Mountains on the shorts of Kootenay Lake is this beautiful Canadian city. We have hiking, biking, and walking trails. Music festivals, art walks and a generally good feeling!
