Brand new ( ready to rent May 2015), lovingly built by a Swiss carpenter eco suite on our organic farm. Enjoy the fresh air and space of the country setting only a 10 min drive from downtown Nelson. 30 minutes to Whitewater Ski Resort.
The property is situated on a quiet road, away from the highway, but easy access from town. There are no steps from the parking to the suite and none within. The suite has its own entrance and a fenced in yard separate from the yard of the main house. It has a lovely private patio.
The suite has lots of natural light from its many windows.

We designed the suite with In-floor geothermal heating, air exchange for the best indoor air quality and comfort of our guests. Only the best materials were used: solid wood, stone, low VOC paints to make for the healthiest environment possible. The suite is pet-free, no exceptions, to accommodate people with allergies.
At 400 square feet, the suite is ideal for a single traveler or a couple, but would accommodate a family with up to 2 children.
The suite consists of a living room, kitchen, bathroom, and 1 bedroom.
The living room has a brand new leather sofa that unfolds into a full bed with a comfortable mattress ( BeautyRest) for additional sleeping spots, an armchair and an antique cabinet containing a TV.
The bedroom has a queen bed with a brand new memory foam queen mattress, bedside tables, a closet and a dresser.
The bathroom is compact with a toilet, a shower, a sink and a washer and dryer.
The kitchen is beautiful with its wall of windows and the view of the valley, custom made walnut cabinets and granite counter tops.
Other features:
WiFi ( can be turned off on request), washer/dryer, fully equipped kitchen, TV, Netflix.
While staying at the BioBio Suite you will have an option to buy our farm fresh organic produce, Kootenay Local Agricultural Society certified.

We are new to vacation rentals, will you give us a try?More
We love animals and keep our own dogs, cats, chickens and cows. To provide a safe environment for allergy sufferers and to ensure safety of our own pets we cannot accept guests with pets and the suite is completely pet free. Thank you for your understanding.
My husband and I spent five nights in the BioBio cabin at the end of August. The cabin is on an organic farm surrounded by charming floral gardens. It is located on the edge of a pasture with friendly and curious mother and calf grazing...More

Thank you so much Joel! It was a pleasure hosting your lovely family and we would love to see you all again.
A stay at BioBio Suite is a fabulous way to get a glimpse of what it would be like to live in and around Nelson - this is well beyond the typical tourist experience. A few highlights - the bowl of fresh strawberries from the...More

My husband and I just stayed here to celebrate our first wedding anniversary! We were more than thrilled when we arrived and saw the suite. It is sparklingly clean, the perfect size for a couple, and had all the amenities we needed. The location was...More
A car is recommended, but you can also get around by bike ( about 30 min to town and 1hr back) or take a bus to and from town ( 4 buses a day on weekdays). It stops right by our gate and takes you to Baker Street in Nelson in 20 min.
