If you are looking for a nice place to stay, that feels like home -nestled amongst the trees, cozy, modern & clean, then look no further than "Marmot's Nest"! It is a wonderful spot for families, friends or couples. PLUS... there is no cost to park and there are no hotel or other taxes added to our rates(most other rentals do add these costs onto your booking)!!!!
We are proud to share with you that our unit has been inspected by the Vancouver Olympic
Organizing Committee (VANOC) as part of our contract to rent our unit to them during the Olympics. Our unit met their top/best tier rating. There were several categories that had to be met to achieve this ranking. This is an independent source that rated our unit so we thought it might be useful to you in making your rental decision.
We are conveniently located just 300 meters from Creekside Village. This is where the gondola for Whistler Mountain is located. Ski lessons and rentals are also available here.
There are lots of amenities as well: grocery & liquor store, restaurants, Starbucks, bank etc. Dusty's Bar/Pub is located right beside the Gondola and is a great apres-ski, lunch or evening hangout.
Undercover parking is available just out front. There is one small step up but besides that, it is a straight, flat entrance to our unit - no stairs or elevators to deal with. Very handy when you are unloading equipment, supplies, kids etc.
Our unit is 770 square feet. It is a top floor, end unit. The entrance level has the master bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, living room & laundry room - where there is a safe storage area for your skis/boards and other equipment.
The master bedroom is equipped with a large set of drawers and full closet. The kitchen and bathrooms have just been renovated with granite countertops, modern appliances and fixtures.
The kitchen has everything you would ever need - we have had many compliments as to how well stocked it is!! Some of the extras we have available - blender, rice maker, coffee grinder, waffle maker, vases, water pitcher, serving trays, cookie sheets, salad spinner.. the list goes on.
We supply complimentary coffee (regular & decaf), coffee filters, tea, sugar, salt & pepper, spices, plastic wrap, tinfoil, & baggies - who wants to buy this stuff when they are away?
The loft area has a private bedroom with a queen size bed & an open area that has a futon. The area is well lit, spacious and has full drawer sets for both areas. There is also a second bathroom upstairs with a shower- all new!
The dining table seats four but can also be extended to seat six for larger groups. The living room is cozy with two couches & sixteen foot ceilings.
Things to do - Enjoy the soaker tub, relax by the wood burning fireplace, have a nice meal, listen to music or watch the birds through the large living room windows. Take in a movie on our 39 inch flat panel tv. We have a selection of DVDs, board games, CDs & an MP3 connection cord for the stereo for your use as well.
Why leave Fido at home? We love our dog and she vacations with us so we wanted to pass this option onto you. We ask that only well trained dogs that will not mess, chew or bark be brought to our property. (Any damage will be charged to your credit card). Sorry, no cats (or any other pets) allowed due to severe allergies. Dog fee is $15.00/night/dog (Max. two dogs).
!!!!! NO TAXES ARE ADDED TO OUR RATES!!!
