Kootenay Rockies - Kootenay Boundary

Janelle

We live rurally a third of the way up Baldy Mountain close to Osoyoos and Oliver. We have 30 acres of forested property up a dirt road - very quiet. We have neighbours that are friendly but keep to themselves.

We have lots of animals, but they are all fairly low maintenance.
7 dogs - it seems like a lot but really, they're easy! Fed twice a day, 4 of them live outside, and 3 of them sleep indoors and could use a walk every now and then. We have a large fenced area they can run around in as well.

We have 10 goats - all you have to do is make sure their water is topped up and they have enough hay. They're so entertaining and love attention.

We have 3 kune kune pigs - they are relaxed and laid back. They like to be fed twice a day and love belly rubs.

We've got a bunch of ducks, 4 geese and an assortment of chickens. They sleep in their houses at night and we let them out with food and water to roam during the day. Otherwise, they take care of themselves!

We also have 2 miniature donkeys that are literally the cutest things you'll ever see. They are tiny, and soft, and love a cuddle. They don't require much work - just making sure their hay net is full! They love carrots and apples as treats.

We have one rabbit - just make sure he is fed and watered!

A bit about our house - 3 bedroom, two outdoor patios (one covered, one not). We have a detached garage that is a full gym - has a treadmill, a bike, a TV, a rowing machine, pretty much any gym equipment that you could want! We have a bqq, we have everything you need for a comfortable stay. We have two TVs and wifi. We also have a nice hot tub in the backyard to relax in! We also have a wood stove to make it a really cozy stay in the winter.

There are infinite trails you can snowshoe or walk from the property and not run into a soul!

We are a 15 minute drive to Mount Baldy, for any ski enthusiasts who would like to stay here instead of renting an expensive cabin in the village!

Janelle & Sly are easy-going, friendly and helpful people, and made me feel at home right from the start. Their property is quiet and peaceful, and their many animals provided me endless entertainment. I loved taking care of the goats, pigs, chickens, geese and ducks, and the chores were quite straight-forward and simple. The dogs were excellent company, often making me laugh with their silly antics and insisting on bedtime snuggles. I also enjoyed the use of the home gym and hot tub, but its ... MORE
