  The condo was exactly as described, no surprises. It offered plenty of room for me and my wife. We enjoyed the pool, hot tub and outdoor BBQ. I would rate the value for money as excellent, particularly given the location to the Creekside gondola, since we were there for a week of skiing. We noticed that the tv in the condo was having some trouble with the pixels. We really didn't care since we rarely ever watch tv, and I didn't travel across the country to watch tv. A previous guest must have mentioned this to the owner, as we returned one day to find a brand new one hooked up. It seemed to work really well. I mention this only to note that the owner was attentive to any problems in the unit, which was really appreciated. We really prefer Creekside at Whistler. This building and this condo will be our go to place when we return, guaranteed.

  The condo was great with all the amenities needed to stay in and cook a nice dinner or sit back and relax with a glass of wine and cheese. The condo was clean and well maintained as was the complex itself. The bedroom bed was comfortable and the room had adequate closet space. The pullout bed was great as a futon with the mattress on the floor. The skiing was great (it is Whistler) and the gondola is about 100yds from the front door of the condo. You need to walk but it is easy access with only a few stairs to climb. There are definitely fewer people on the Whistler Creek side making it much faster to get up into the alpine area than the Whistler Village area. Although they hadn't had snow for about 10 days, we still found lots of soft snow in Symphony (Whistler) and Glacier Creek Chairline (Blackcomb). The entry to Peak was challenging but once in the bowl, the skiing was great. There is a great hot tub big enough for about 25 to sit comfortably and alarge pool for those who didn't get enough exercise during the day. The garage had plenty of parking although we only used the car once to go into the Village. It is an easy walk to Dusty's for a beer and bar food (place has been here for 30+ years) and there are a couple of restaurants in walking distance. Creekbed had good pizza and was in walking distance. We ended up driving into the Village one night dinner at Umberto's which was good but on the pricey side (I think we liked Rimrock better for the price). Lots of activities in the Village with a fireworks show and shops galore. Make sure to ask around to find out what's happening. Definitely recommend the condo and of course I'd recommend Whistler

  This is a very nice one bedroom unit in a family-friendly complex. The kitchen/livingroom area is especially nice. The condo was comfortable and conveniently located (about a 4 km drive to downtown Whistler). I did not use the pool, but it looked inviting and was very popular among other guests, particularly families with children. The owners provided clear instructions and maintained great communication before and after my stay. My only reservation was the lack of air conditioning (if it has air conditioning, I couldn't figure out how to turn it on!) and evening noise from other units and the pool/barbecue area.

  Very good experience. Great location. Comfortable clean condo. Arrangements were easy to make and owners were very nice to deal with, everything just as detailed. You can't complain when you can go from sitting at the kitchen table to sitting on the gondola in under ten minutes.
