Map & Owner's Profile
Luxury Ski in/Out Chalet Sleeps up to 11 People, Big White
Year Purchased: 2005
Why the Owner Chose Big White
Heather and I first visited Big White in 2005 and immediately fell in love with the resort. Having skied extensively in Europe and the USA we were completely knocked out with the snow conditions. Being classified as semi-desert the lack of moisture provides pure powder so much in demand by keen skiers & boarders alike. We looked at quite a number of properties before deciding on Double Diamond Chalet and have been delighted with the choice. Our guest feedback confirms our belief that Double Diamond Chalet offers the highest level of accommodation for discerning clients.
The Unique Benefits at this Chalet
The major benefit experienced by staying at Double Diamond Chalet is the true ski-in/ski-out facilities from the front door to a choice of lifts. Guests remark on the tranquility of sitting in the hot tub with uninterrupted views over the forest to the Monashee mountain range.
The chalet is fully equipped with a gourmet kitchen and utensils, the furnishing are to the highests standard, so guests feel at home from the moment they arrive. "A chalet of the highest quality" "A home away from home" are just two of the client comments that describe the satisfaction attained from a ski vacation in Double Diamond Chalet.
Owner's Map of Big White
My wife Heather & I live in the UK where we spend the summer months and are fortunate to have the opportunity to vacation in Mauritius, where our son lives, during the Autumn period before heading for Big White for the ski-season. Our love for skiing only started in our late thirties but once "bitten" we have become totally committed. We try to spend as much time as possible in Big White during the season and it means that we are close at hand to satisfy the requirements of our guests

Jan 2009 by e-mail:"You know when you just visit a place and it ticks all the boxes! Well that's what it did for us! The snow was amazing, although not as amazing as the views. We called it Narnia! The house was just lovely. Very tasteful and clean"

February 2009 by e-mail: "I've stayed in many mountain homes/condos over the years, including at Lake Tahoe, but I can't recall one that is laid out as well or has such an ideal living space as yours. We also appreciate how well provisioned it was, especially pans, dishes, and even spices"
