New 2 BR Luxury Condo on Mountain with Hot Tub - from $109
Year Purchased: 2009
Why the Owner Chose Kimberley
My wife and I really wanted a retreat from the hustle and bustle of Edmonton. We were looking for a place that has the best of "both worlds" with all the comforts of home along with the peace and beauty of Canada's best mountains. We looked at dozens of resort areas in B.C. and Alberta, then settled on Willow Vistas in Kimberley. Willow Vistas has all the modern comforts and conveniences of home and Kimberley is a great resort community with amenities and activities for all ages. The skiing, golfing, & hiking are second to nowhere on earth. We hope you enjoy our condo as much as we do.
Owner's Map of Kimberley
My wife and I have 3 children, age 10, 12 & 15. Daily life in Edmonton can be very hectic with work and activities which I'm sure most people appreciate. We visited Kimberley for the first time a couple years ago and it was a little piece of heaven in this busy world. We were so impressed by the relaxed nature of the area we decided to invest in a condo with the intention of having a great "excuse" to get away more often.

Property is new, clean and comes with all the necessities to keep comfortable...even a cork screw, (very important). Master bed is great and condo has ample room to relax. Area golfing is fantastic and we loved the mine tour, very well presented and are glad we made time to do it....there is such a rich history in the valley and the people are great at presenting it! Owner is wonderful to deal with and answered all our questions in a timely manor...good job. We will be back next year for sure.

I highly recommend renting this unit. It is extremely spacious, clean, luxurious and has an air of romance built in while watching the stars from your own hottub was just perfect. The pictures you see are amazing, yet the real thing is even better if you can imagine! The pictures do not do the condo justice. If you enjoy quiet walks or hikes this is your place. We will be back again for sure. Thank you Curtis

The four of us had a great time golfing 6 courses while spending one week at the Condo. We played some wonderful courses. This is the second year we stayed there. It is a great location and has all of the amenities. The large king bed and 2 single beds was ideal for four seniors. The scenery is beautiful and the hot tub is a nice touch. We hope to be back there again next year.

We found this condo by a link our daughter in law sent us. All arrangements went without a hitch, communications with the owner were done in a timely manner.The weekend was spent there with my elderly parents. Size of the condo was perfect for us, very comfortable. Nice place to stay, clean when we arrived. All in all a good experience. I would recommend this place to both family and friends.

We came here midweek to do some skiing and it was great. Very quiet. Nice and new place, well equipped and clean. The hot tub was a great feature after a day on the slopes. The condo was surprisingly big, and though it was just two of us, there was plenty of room for more. We had a great time and would recommend it to anyone!

The 4 of us stayed at Curtis's place over New Years and the place was fantastic. It was very clean and stocked with linens + towels. The hot tub on the deck was awesome after a day on the hill which was a 5min walk to the lift and resturants / pubs. We'll be back for sure this summer to go golfing.

My girlfriend and I stayed here for the sneak a peek weekend at Kimberley in December 2010. It was a great weekend. The property is fantastic, the hot tub perfect and the snow amazing. Curtis was a great host and helped with a couple small issues very quickly. You just email him and he's on it. We loved it and are planning on staying here again soon!
