Ski in and ski out were excellent. No more than 50 meters to walk across a road at end of day. Short walk (10 min) to the centre village.Hot tub was good. Although close the railing - parents should keep their kids away from that side.Excellent stay overall. Would book again, for sure.

Spacious and well-equipped place

Lovely stay for a family vacation. Lots of amenities and easy communication with owner. Fastest access to Happy Valley required a fairly steep boot pack up to the path (and fairly steep walk/slide down for ski out!) which may be challenging for some. Ski in down to Plaza/Ridge Rocket was super accessible and fun!

Great Space for a Ski in Ski out week.

We had a great stay, loved the two bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms and separate bedroom and bathroom in the basement. The living space and kitchen had great space for hanging out, playing games and relaxing. We loved that they had a pantry for our food💜 Also great closet and dresser space. Having the two living spaces was amazing for the kids. The ski bench, hooks and ski map In the garage are brilliant. We would defiantly book again. Renee and Alex

Beautiful chalet for a family stay

This was our best rental yet in 5 years of renting at Big White! It was very clean and well appointed. The kitchen had everything we needed, the beds were very comfortable and the linens and towels were very good quality. We especially appreciated the heated garage and built in benches and hooks for all of our gear. That space made it very easy to keep the chalet clean and clutter free. We were a family of 6 adults and one infant, and the spacious layout of this chalet made it easy for everyone to have the space they needed. The fact that there are 3 full bathrooms also contributed to our comfort. Gregg was very quick to respond to messages and showed a genuine interest in making our stay enjoyable! We will be back!

This place is awesome, beautifully positioned in a fantastic ski in ski out picture book ski villag

We stayed as a family of 6, for 4y.o to 50y.o, and was never cramped or tripping over each other. This is a very comfortable home to relax and recharge for another day of great powder snow. Everything we needed was in the home, from the kitchen appliances, to the bathroom setup with luxurious towels, and carpeted bedroom floors with ensures. The drying room/garage was such a convenient area to come and go from, as kitting up or stripping down for skiing can be so awkward and inconvenient if not set up right. This was perfect. The hot tub was a great feature, which we usually soaked in the mornings to warm our muscles and joints before another flogging on the slopes. Gregg's communication prior to our stay was extremely hospitable and helpful, with even a followup call to make sure we were settled in. I thoroughly recommend this beautiful, comfortable and conveniently positioned home which we found even better than the photos show. Thanks Gregg and Lisa for opening your home up to us Regards, Rick, Sally, Jessica, Thomas, Nathan and Charlotte.

Beautiful Ski Condo

This condo was very well suited to our group. My husband and I, our three adult children and two of their adult friends. The location on the hill was also very good. Communication with owner was prompt and clear. Even though they were on holidays they responded to questions quickly and helpfully. Information in the welcome binder was accurate and suggestions were helpful. We highly recommend using this as a resource upon arrival.Condo was immaculate and quiet. The condos on either side were occupied but noise was never an issue.Wonderful to have private hot tubKitchen was very well appointed in excellent condition with plenty of room for your own groceries. We have stayed in other "ski in; ski out" condos where the "ski out" is to a secondary lift. This "ski out" is directly to the Ridge Rocket Express. Ski In brings you through the village and virtually to where you started (maybe 50 steps to your door).The layout of the condo was well suited to our group with two rooms with ensuites upstairs and a bunk room, den with sofa bed and bathroom in the lowest level. (main floor was kitchen, and living room but no bedroom or bathroom). Foot access to the village is a choice of walking up the ski in or walking down a ski out to the gondola that takes you to the village. We did both without problem and found walking up more convenient. For anyone with mobility issues, it could be quite challenging to access by foot.We HIGHLY recommend this condo
