About this property

Cedar Forest Cabin - Cozy, Private Forest Retreat

  • About this space
    Cedar Forest Cabin is a compact, rustic two-level cabin tucked into 5 private acres of cedar forest, located 15 minutes from Castlegar and 24 minutes from Nelson. Designed for one or two guests, it offers a cozy, intimate space for those who enjoy a simpler style of forest accommodation rather than a large, traditional home.
    The cabin is small by design and has a unique layout. The main-floor ceiling is 6'4"; taller guests should consider this when deciding if the space will be comfortable for them. A steeper staircase leads to the upper level, where the sleeping area is arranged in an open-concept loft beneath the barn-style roof. The sides of the upper floor have lower ceiling height, and the bedroom and 3-piece bathroom are part of the open layout rather than being separated by a hallway or bedroom door.
    This creates a cozy and intimate space with limited privacy, making the cabin especially well suited to a couple or solo traveller. Photos throughout the listing show the layout, staircase and proportions of the space so you can get a good sense of what to expect before booking.
    What makes Cedar Forest Cabin special is its simplicity. You'll be surrounded by cedar forest and nature, with your own private little space to slow down, relax and enjoy a different kind of getaway. Whether you're looking for a quiet retreat after a day of exploring the West Kootenays, a romantic escape, or simply a peaceful place to reconnect with nature, we invite you to settle in and enjoy the experience.
    If you appreciate rustic character, intimate spaces, privacy and being surrounded by nature, this little cabin may be just what you're looking for.
