My husband and I stayed just one night. The property obviously has so much history and character. The grounds are so beautiful. I can see it being an incredible place for weddings. The property is very clean and we had everything we needed. We slept very well. Unfortunately we couldn’t use the pool and tennis court like we wanted. September weather can be tricky for the pool with the leaves falling all the time. The owners are very friendly and accommodating. Thank you very much.

The property was unique and quite beautiful. If you're a fan of Downton Abbey this would be a great example of the homes of that era. A bit less fussy in decor than Downton, but a very unique experience for sure Our hosts were very friendly, the grounds were excellent to explore if you are a plant enthusiast, plenty of quiet activities to keep you entertained, and the room was perfect with comfy beds, modern bathroom, a fan to keep the room cool, and a lake front view!

From the moment we drove in we could tell this place was above whatvwe expected. When we drovw up we were greeted by my first name. We checked in and were given a quick briefing of the home. From the history witch boasts a timeline of all of its owners along with the pivotal position it played in world history. To its elaborate man cave in the basement to its amazing garden outaide it was allot to take in. We stayed for 3 days and by the end of it it felt like it was your home you were staying in. And the owners were your servants lol. One needs to remember and appreciate the fact the owners are in fact sharing their home with you and trying to bring us back to a simpler time sharing this piece if history with the rest of the world.the home is meticulously maintained in era correct decor as much as possible and clean. If your looking to relive this era definitely check out the Blaylock. We will for sure be back aa there was still so much we missed in the garden.

When one books a 2 person room with 1 bed, sends 1 person in to look at the room, and then moves 5 people in, that is not good. When they are then so noisy the other guests start complaining, you should expect to be asked to leave. This one booking is responsible for the two 1 star reviews we have had in 5 years, both the same night. And the first people we have had to ask to leave the property in years.

The bedroom we stayed in was lovely it was clean. I have no complaints about that. I was disappointed, however when I got to the entrance that I was asked to take my shoes off before entering the premises My shoes are clean, and there is no reason for me not to have worn them. It was a pain going to the car, getting my bags, taking my shoes off and then having to walk up the stairs to our room. Frankly, I thought it was unprofessional I’ve never had to do that before. Then, at check out, we were having our coffee in the breakfast room and the manager came in with his debit machine, asking for the clients to pay up . When I went to go and pay my bill, I noticed it was different than what had been quoted and he had added an additional seven dollars and some odd cents to our bill. When I inquired about it, he told me it was to go towards the yard maintenance or something to that effect. He did take that yard maintenance tax off at my request.

Colleen, clearly you were offended by our staff asking you to remove your shoes inside the mansion. We are equally offended by your review. 1. The majority of our guests treasure and appreciate the effort required in keeping the Blaylock pristine and authentic. Our restored 100 year old hardwood floors are easily damaged by the pebbles caught in shoes from the driveway. It is a major chore for us as well, to protect them, but we note clearly that slippers are required in all our booking information and happily provide free slippers to those that wish. 2. Many of our clients prefer to clear their bills at the comfort of their table than standing in the entrance.3. The fractional fee (7) goes toward restoration of historic parts of the property and we happily credit it. Most clients fall in love with the property and want to support its restoration and historic authenticity.Unlike most, you clearly didn't appreciate the beauty of the magnificent gardens or restored mansion. We invite you to wear your shoes inside your own home, or accommodations that do not care, where they may be needed.

We had a lovely view of Kootenay Lake from our window. The grounds and garden around the mansion are amazing to stroll through. The history of the mansion is very interesting as you'll see by the pictures and articles displayed inside. The hosts were very friendly and welcoming as well. We would definitely stay there again.

Had an amazing stay, right from being greeted by Jennifer right after getting out of the car until leaving early two days later. Even before check-in received a tour inside themansion with its spaoious rooms, memorabilia, old time artefacts before being shown my splendid room with view of Kootenay Lake. An excellent billiard table was set up and lounge chairs throughout the complex made for an enjoyable stay. The swimming pool was a bonus with minimal chlorine to make my eyes sore. Lots of deck chairs to sit and soak up the sun. The Rock Garden, which took twice as long as the mansion to build, was extraordinary with its intricate network of pathways, where one discovers an elephant spouting water and a fantastic sundial. There are beautiful views in and from the rock garden. Breakfast, at 8:30am, was a treat consisting of granola & yogurt and a kabob of fruit and mini-pancakes. Coffee was available from 7am. It was a good occasion to meet other guests and learn where they were from and what they had planned for taking in area attractions: railway trail bike ride, shopping, Lakeside Park, museums, drive up to Balfour, Ainsworth Hot Springs... The only improvement might be in the parking. It wasn't clear we could park in front of the reception area, which was in the afternoon sun. For my second night I parked in the shady lower area. Staff were courteous and friendly throughout my stay. Surprisingly the cost was less than some of the accommodation in town.

It is a difficult balance adding modern additions like AC while maintaining the original architecture.Most of our guests are surprised how well the old designs manage temperature and how cool the mansion stays even the few weeks of 30C plus days. Sorry one was too cold and the other too hot.

Huge potential, beautiful grounds, historic mansion! I believe this is a new venture as a boutique hotel and is still in the early stages. You must drive into Nelson for meals other than breakfast. First surprise tho’ was the requirement to remove outdoor shoes at the entrance. As it is summer sandal season, I was then barefooted until I was able to enter our room and unpack and put on slippers. I can appreciate the effort to preserve the carpets but an advance warning would have been appreciated or had shoe covers available. There was no coffee available in our room or breakfast room before 7:30 a.m. which was hard on my husband who is an early riser. The shower water was very muddy and it did not clear so we had to forget showering in the morning. There were no staff available to report this. The staff person, Cheri sp? that we did meet on check in was very friendly and welcoming and told us to explore the public areas which are historic and very beautiful. The grounds are fabulous. Overall, the mansion is well worth a visit before it becomes too popular!

This has been the most unique stay I have ever booked. This whole trip was like a fairytale and this mansion was honestly one of the highlights, I will most definitely be returning in the future. The staff were so welcoming and helpful the whole time. It was such a beautiful property, both outside and in, and felt so magical. It has great amenities (pool, billiard room, sun room, garden, etc.) and my only regret is not staying for an extra night! This place feels like home when you're staying there. Huge thank you again to the staff that own this place, I would highly recommend this place to anyone travelling out to this area!! :)

It is a great experience. The rooms and bathrooms are smaller than normal hotels. There is no air conditioning but there is a ceiling fan. On the other hand, you don't spend too much time in your room. There are wonderful shared spaces. The pool is gorgeous. The private garden is spectacular. The staff are friendly. The morning breakfast ( added cost) was delicious. Short, easy drive to Nelson for restaurants. There are only 7/8 rooms so it is a very, private quiet relaxing experience.

It was an interesting property-an old mansion. Service was extremely limited-no bellman, no maid, no room service. They need to update the building by ripping out all the old carpet to put in nice flooring-more hygienic. They make you take off your shoes because of the carpet, which is kind of gross. There were hundreds of teeny bugs that got through the window screens into our room. We had opened the windows as there was no a/c and it was 34 degrees out. It was awful! The beautiful swimming pool that you see in the photos was dirty and freezing! What a shame as that is why we booked this property. Finally, one night there was a bat walking down the hall and he went into a bedroom under the door. We called the girl who worked there and she did nothing. Supposedly no one was staying in that room. Yuck!

This is our second visit to Blaylock Mansion. We loved it the first time and we love it even more after this second visit. We stayed in their Premier Suite and while it cost a little extra it was well worth it. Large room with a wonderful sitting space complete with a wood burning fireplace which we enjoyed with a glass of wine. The games room is comfy and the pool table is massive. A good place to relax. We also enjoyed the bright and spacious sun room. Finally the gardens are a delight and a wonderful place to unwind and enjoy nature. Just a unique and wonderful place.

A wonderful stay and experience. The mansion itself set the tone and the accommodations did not disappoint We cozied up in front of a fire lit by our hosts, thoroughly enjoyed the library and archives and had most of the 16,000 sq ft to ourselves after 9pm. Tranquille, manicured grounds allowed us a garden of relaxation before moving on to see more of this amazing valley.
