After several years of considering opening an All Seasons branch in the US, Billie Jo will presently assist to develop the “Selkirk Loop” and Pacific North West clientele, making this company an International Vacation Rental Agency.

Billie Jo lives by the motto: “Work hard but make sure that there is always time to play and relax”! She is happy to help you and your family or friends find the right spot to do the same! Living in Spokane Washington she spent time, since childhood, with her family on holiday in Canada. She and her husband have raised two wonderful daughters whom all have a passion for family and horses.

The database system he built for All Seasons has become an integral part of my business operations, so he is a natural for me to call upon to look after things when I need to run away on my own vacation!







imageIt has been my pleasure to live in Nelson for the past 32 years. I came to Nelson on vacation and fell in love with the “spirit” of this unique arts town; with the rental of a small house, the Queen City became my home.
Nelson has grown and changed through the decades. The run-down Heritage homes of the 1970’s have been renovated to become the beautiful historic gems you see today around our beautiful city.
The once famous Notre Dame University closed its doors to students in 1978 but those same doors opened to the International College which brought 100’s of Japanese students to the area during the 80’s. Currently Selkirk College and the Professional Music School claim these grounds as their home.
The revitalization of Nelson’s downtown core has been amazing to watch as the aluminum facades of the 50’s came down and behind were the breathtaking original stone and brick buildings.
I raised three children this area that is so rich with out door activates and opportunity.
Employment in the area afforded me the opportunity to travel the astonishingly beautiful shores of the lakes in our area, and spend hours working at the waters edge.
For 14 years I partnered the development and operation of a lumber and building supply business in the core of the city. Changing business forms in the 90’s my focus has been business Administration in: Hospice, education and women run private enterprises.
When we built our second home in Nelson and the movies of the early ‘80’s arrived; Roxanne (Steve Martin & Daryl Hannah) and House Keeping (Diane Keaton); we were asked to offer the home as a rental house for the stars and crew.
It has been with great pleasure, and a delightful shift for me, to be using my professional experience and knowledge of the area; blending it with the beauty of this city and our Kootenay valley and my love for interactive human communication, to offer you the best support I am able, in booking your holiday.
I feel this business supports the sustainability of our small town, both ecologically and economically. This is my part in “Reduce, Reuse and Recycle"; offering high-end private homes for the enjoyment and comfort of travelling families and groups.
My team and I look forward to helping you find the perfect location and activities, through the BCTrip web site, to make your holiday memorable!

Sincerely,
Sydnee Paavola
