We are an Ontario couple who made the mistake years ago of not moving to BC. We've spent one entire and several partial seasons snowboarding in the Rossland area via house-sits and short term rentals (local references available) over the past 12 years (we're in Rossland currently, set to depart around Feb 1, but keen to return).
We are hoping to find a 7-14 day housing option (affordable rental or house/pet-sit) in February. Pets and plants not a problem.
