Central Kootenay Cabin | Best West Kootenay Off-Grid Tiny House

1 Bedroom Cabin in Central Kootenay, Salmo

YOUR CEDAR SANCTUARY AWAITS
Escape to your own private retreat - a beautifully crafted off-grid tiny house where digital detox meets rustic comfort. Nestled among towering cedars and hemlock, this is where busy minds find peace and adventure-seekers find their basecamp.
THE LAKE EXPERIENCE
Just a peaceful 2.5km walk (or quick drive) to Rosebud Lake - a pristine, spring-fed gem that's refreshingly warm and perfect for swimming. This motor-free lake is home to hundreds of friendly turtles and giant dragonflies that keep the mosquitos at bay. Bring your kayak, canoe, or paddleboard for the ultimate serenity. There is a solitary community boat launch for the lake which naturally is a popular spot. It's understood by the locals to Salmo that this is a shared access point, so a friendly hello will have you through to the excellent swimming in no time.

• Summer: Hiking, fishing, canoeing, jet boating on three major rivers (Pend Oreille, Columbia, Kootenay)
• Winter: Backcountry and downhill skiing, snowmobiling
• Always: Peaceful lake moments and forest walks
LOCATION PERKS:
Central to Salmo, Trail, Castlegar, and Nelson, with easy access from Spokane and Creston. The charming Rosebud Mercantile is just a gentle walk away for local eggs, local author books, and simple refreshments.

Summary: Phill was an incredible responsive host with a lovely tiny house. We loved sitting out on the patio and enjoying nature the property is quiet and the cabin is surrounded by trees. There are tons of hikes within driving distance and the area was incredible to explore.

Summary: My Husband and I stayed 2 nights at Phil's property. Must try if you are looking to unwind from the City's hustling life. We were warmly welcomed by Phil at the Cabin and were provided help whenever needed during our stay. The winner of this stay was the gazebo made atop, breathtaking views to enjoy while sipping tea. Will visit again to explore turtles at Rosebud Lake, however cooking meals and unwinding with a good read or a game of scrabble will leave you with almost no time to think about your devices. Kudos!

Summary: As Nelson locals, this was the perfect weekend escape. My partner and I thoroughly enjoyed our crisp, sunny, April stay in Phil's hand-built tiny home. It was exactly what we were looking for; a humble abode, nestled in the trees, and a surrounding area to explore. Phil was very welcoming and made himself readily available in case we needed anything. Any answers to questions you may have are well-written in his detailed description. We would like to return to check out Rosebud Lake when it’s warmer and see all of the turtles! Thanks again, Phil. Hope to see you again!

Summary: This property was just as quiet and close to nature as we had hoped. Even with a music festival running for three days 2 km up the road, we heard nothing, the tiny house being in a deep dip. We had a beautiful deer and small black bear visit over the course of our stay. There is a viewing platform level with the tops of the fir trees up the steep hillside. We enjoyed a couple of the books provided by Phil in the cabin. As the amenities are intended to be basic, we would recommend taking any camping comforts you enjoy. We were glad we had the screen tent, for example, so we could comfortably sit outside at any time, and a collapsible sink for personal hygiene. There is no bathroom in the house, but you can ask Phil for a hot shower somewhere nearer to his house. We didn't. We used our collapsible sink, wet wipes, and the showers at the hot springs in Ainsworth. The kitchen outdoors is a double ring run off propane, and there is a propane barbecue. About propane, you can operate a propane fire pit, even during a fire ban, if you take one along with you to enjoy after dark. One last thing. There is no cell reception at the property, ever. But you can choose to go into Salmo (about twenty minutes away), or some other town, to use your data to connect with others and the internet. Or you can take the opportunity to enjoy a total break from these things. We badly needed to relax and pretty much do nothing but be, so this little break was perfect for us.
