Welcome to The Forest Nook in stunning Queens Bay! Nestled along the picturesque Kootenay Lake, our 2-tiny homed property is perfect for groups or solo adventurers seeking a wilderness escape. If it’s your first dance with tiny homes, brace yourself for a delightful surprise—each tiny is custom-crafted with love and meticulous detail. Enjoy the serene outdoor space overlooking the lake, where birds serenade you, a creek murmurs nearby, and waves gently kiss the cliff’s base—all while perched 300 feet above! Need wheels? We’ve got peddle bikes ready to roll, perfect for exploring the area, heading to the nearby beach, and soaking up the fresh mountain air. Inside, each tiny home features a large fridge and freezer—ideal for keeping your drinks chilled and ready to enjoy. Whether you’re whipping up a feast or just need a spot to store your favorite brews, we’ve got you covered. Need to cook or heat up that chicken pot pie? Eagle Cabin has a large convection toaster oven while Osprey has a standard size toaster oven. Just a hop, skip, and a jump (or a 1-minute drive, but who’s counting?) gets you to the beautiful main lake access. But before you race to the lake, a word of caution: our stairs are steep and deep and might give your knees a workout! If you’ve got creaky joints, take it slow and enjoy the view—think of it as nature's stairmaster. Each tiny home has its own flair: Osprey Cabin, lovingly adorned with trinkets and treasures from Sara's globetrotting escapades, and Eagle Cabin, where luxury meets modern charm. Whether you’re cuddled up with your better half or flying solo, your stay promises to be memorable. Come experience Cliffside Hideaways—where tiny living meets big adventures (and where the stairs keep you on your toes, literally)!

We are happy to host you in our custom-built home/s. As nature lovers, we welcome you to our special property and hope you feel as much at home here as we do. We live on the property and can assist you with anything you may need when exploring the surrounding area. The Kootenays are a beautiful region with lots to do!
