About this property

Cedar Cottage, a private and cozy experience

The Cedar Cottage is a 1 bedroom, cozy and romantic cottage with all the needed amenities. Numerous windows allow ample light in with the feeling of being nestled in the trees. A covered garage is provided for guests to park. Beautiful deck nestled in the cedars with glimpses of the Purcell Mountain range and Kootenay Lake. Access world class mountain bike trails or walk the river trail right from the Cedar Cottage.


Kaslo is internationally known for its easy to moderate access to stunning recreational activities in the Selkirk and Purcell mountains. Winter recreation is abundant with close access to snowshoe and nordic ski trails. Time it right and you may have outdoor skating on the numerous local lakes. Many of Kaslo’s mountain bike trails transform into winding winter trails through the forest for snowshoeing. Close access to backcountry alpine skiing terrain in the Selkirk mountains. The vacation rental is a 2 minute drive from Kaslo and its amenities. Kaslo has a variety of restaurants, grocery store, butcher, liquor store and the Kaslo Adventure Center where you can pick up any winter supplies needed or rent nordic skis. After a day of outside activities soak at the Ainsworth Hot Springs resort just 15 minute drive away. Enjoy a day in Nelson a 1 hour drive away or a day of skiing or snowboarding at the Whitewater Ski Resort just outside of Nelson.

Kaslo Cedar Cottage

My wife and I spent a week at Cedar Cottage located just south of Kaslo BC. Our host Meleana welcomed us and answered all of our questions. The well equipped cottage is nestled amongst the trees in a quiet and private location. It exceeded our expectations being walking distance to the heart of historic Kaslo and to an extensive multi use trail system. Excellent value and pet friendly too. Rob and Sharon

This is January 15, 2025 and after we walked in to the cabin my wife said "Where is the bathroom?" to our surprise it is out side off the deck. You must go outdoors in the winter and then into the bathroom. This was not disclosed when we booked. This is wrong!!!!@

Host profile image
The owners Meleana and Thomas have had this property for 26 years. The cottage was built by the family in 2017. Meleana is a high school teacher/counsellor and Thomas is a local landscaper and gardner. Thomas and Meleana love living the Kootenay Dream where much of their year is spent doing a variety of outdoor activities in the surrounding area.

Why they chose this property

Kaslo has often been coined "Little Switzerland" as it shares similarities of many Swiss villages; nestled at the base of the Selkirk Mountains, facing Kootenay lake and the Purcell Mountains also known as the BC Rockies. Guests will enjoy views of the snow capped Purcell mountains from various sitting areas of the rental.

What makes this property unique

Kaslo is internationally known for its easy to moderate access to stunning recreational activities in the Selkirk and Purcell mountains. Spring, summer and fall recreation is abundant with local access to walking, hiking and mountain bike trails in and around Kaslo. From the Cedar Cottage you will have close access to backcountry hiking terrain in the Selkirk and Purcell mountains.

The vacation rental is a 2 minute drive from Kaslo and its amenities. Kaslo has a variety of restaurants, grocery store, butcher, micro-brewery The Angry Hen and a liquor store. At the Kaslo Adventure Center you can pick up any outdoor supplies needed or rent a kayak or SUP. The North Kootenay Bike shop has mountain bikes or electric bikes for rent and can arrange for a drop at the top of Mt. Buchannon to ride the infamous Friendly Giant trail.

After a day of outside activities head for any of Kaslo's local beaches for a swim or go for a soak at the Ainsworth Hot Springs resort just 15 minute drive away.
