Vacation Rentals by Owner

This condo was TOP OF THE LINE! The panoramic views were incredible from the floor to ceiling windows. Everything about this place says "Pure elegence and taste". All of the appliences and furniture were the best that money can buy. I felt like I was in a Palace! The balcony off of the living room was fantastic for relaxing and reading with beautiful views. It is truly one of the nicest places we have stayed. We plan to visit again in the winter and watch the snow fall from those fabulous windows while cozying up by the fire, and then skiing right out the back door. The owners were the most hospitable people we have encountered, and would gladly rent from them again.

We have stayed in dozens of vacation condos around the world that are rented directly by their owners -- in Deer Valley (Park City, Utah), Vail, Lake Tahoe (Nevada), London, and elsewhere. This condo is definitely one of the nicest we have ever rented. It was just beautiful. I'll also add that although we never met the owners (the Dyes), we'd love to -- they were so easy to do business with. And we loved Whistler so much that we wanted to extend our stay by one additional night. By sheer luck, the condo was available that extra night, and the owners made that really easy for us. Just delightful all the way around. We'd recommend this place, and these owners, to anyone.

This condo in Whistler was even better than we had expected, and we had high expectations after seeing the photos. The views were absolutely amazing from every window. And convenience! We hardly used the car but walked everywhere. We loved the chairlifts and gondola rides, saw bears from there and had a snowball fight at the top of Whistler, a real treat for Floridians. We even went ziplining. What a trip. Thanks so much for the bottle of wine and for sharing your home. It was much more fun than a hotel would have been.

We enjoyed staying at the condo. It was exactly as the pictures. Everything was clean and in working order. Great location as our daughter was graduating and the festivities were at the Whistler Fairmont Chateau just down the hill. We will definitely be back. Great value. We were the envy of all our friends as one night we had them over for drinks. Everybody was very impressed. Spectacular views and all around fabulous place. The fresh flowers and bottle of wine on arrival was a nice personal touch. I would not hesitate to recommend this property to others!

We spent a wonderful week this past summer in Woodrun 601. It was one of the very best rentals we have ever had. Very spacious, with stunning views from all windows was much enjoyed and appreciated.THe convenience of flatscreen tv's in all three bedrooms and free wireless was definitely an added bonus. All exceeded our expectations.Coming half way around the world to stay in the most beautiful and comfortable condo in one of the most beautiful places in the world was worth every kilometer. We highly recommend.

As I write this note we (6 Irish dedicated ski bods) are packing our bags to head home! Here the weather has been great, the food indulgent, the drink plentiful and the surroundings outstanding. The condo has provided the most wonderful setting for fireside sit downs and welcome relaxation after the punishing strain on our bodies from our downhill adventures. Amazing views, wonderful holiday. Thanks a million.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this condo and have already recommended it to others. The views and location are magnificent and every detail has been attended to! The decor is beautiful and the outdoor hot tub/pool were fantastic. We hope to return soon. Whistler/Blackcomb is a wonderful place to vacation and this unit was a delight!

We had a fabulous time here at Whistler/Blackcomb. The condo was the most luxurious place we've ever stayed here! The decor is incredibale and the owners have stocked it with all the comforts of home... and the view and location were awesome. We had great communication with the owners as they graciously answered all our guestions prior to our trip via email. We definitely will return to stay here again and again.

We have actually stayed in the Woodrun complex for several years but this unit in particular is by far our favorite place to stay. The personal touches and beautiful decorating make it feel like a luxurious home away from home. All the bed are comfortable and have warm, comfy duvets on them. The kitchen has all the amenities for making full dinners. The owners have been wonderful to interact with and have been extremely helpful with any of our questions. This is truly a diamond of a place!

We stayed at this fabulous penthouse in February 2009 and this was our 4th trip to Whistler and by far the best for accommodation and location. The booking process was very easy and the owners provided plenty of information prior to our arrival. We stayed for 9 nights in total and thoroughly enjoyed this amazing "home away from home". The furnishings, amenties and the fantastic location guaranteed us a brilliant time. The penthouse was huge for our family of 6 and although the furnishings were very high end the space retained a great cosy feel. Our boys felt so at home and the games, DVD's and jigsaws meant hours of entertainment off the slopes. The massive hot tub was a huge plus and we loved coming in off the slopes and rushing down to relax and relive the day's excitement with our own sons and other families. The location of the penthouse in the building meant we were not disturbed at all during our stay. The skiing, whilst needing a "top up" held up well and the brilliant sunshine more than made up for it. We hope to be back in 2011 and without hesitation we shall be checking the availability of this condo first.

I wanted to let you know what a great time we had during our trip. Your unit was very comfortable and provided everything we needed. We particularly enjoyed the fabulous views, ski in/ski out access, and long soaks in the hot tub/pool. We also took your advice on the "Fresh Tracks" tickets at Whistler and had an amazing Powder Day our last day. I will be contacting you again when we are ready to book our next trip!

Dawne and Harry....thank you so much for an absolutely PERFECT skiing vacation. From the moment we opened the door to your condo last Saturday evening and saw the inviting fireplace and your lovely note alongside a bottle of wine and box of chocolates waiting for us on the table, we knew were in for a memorable week. I was so pleased that I had met Dawne and chosen your lovely home to bring my children together for a week of skiing and relaxation. Since they live in Wash. DC and Dallas we don't see each other that often. It was important to me to make this week very special. As we walked through the condo, I saw pictures of you in many of the same places Randy and I have visited - Zermatt (we celebrated our 25th there), Cinque Terre, Italy (we were there in 2006). The pictures along with the many times we have communicated during the last 6 months made me feel like we have become good friends. Each morning my daughter and I would rise while it was still dark outside, sip coffee, sit on the sofa and enjoy the full moon and outline of the mountains in the distance. Our 25 yr. old son had the 3rd bedroom and left his blinds open all night so he could enjoy the view. I remember him getting up that first morning and walking out of his bedroom and saying, "Mom, can you believe that full moon and those beautiful mountains?" Our family is going home with many treasured memories. Everyday was full of sunshine and we have many gorgeous pictures from the PEAK, 7th HEAVEN, and SYMPHONY. I am attaching a couple pictures. Harry, you were so sweet to drive up for the day and show us around the mountains. We have enjoyed every minute of our time here and it is with great sadness that we leave. You both have been just wonderful and we appreciate you sharing your 2nd home with us. Randy & Debbie Bloom Lisa & Chris Ryan P.S. If you're Elvis fans and are interested in visiting Memphis sometime, please let us know

Dear Dawne & Harry, I hope you had a very Merry Christmas. I want to thank you so much for our stay in your condo. It did not feel like we were staying in a condo, it felt more like we were a guest in your home. Everyone was so happy that we were staying there and not somewhere else. You were so kind to leave the candy, wine and card. It was such a nice welcoming gift. The pictures of the condo on the web site are nice but they do not show just how wonderful the place is. You have truly made the place feel like being at home. Thank you for all your help before we arrived. You have a very special place and thank you for sharing it with us. We are spoiled now and if we ever return to Whistler we will not be able to stay anywhere else. I hope you have a very Happy New Year. Yours truly, Gloria

Thank you Harry and Dawne, for making your home available for us to enjoy. We loved the location and the views were beautiful morning to night. We swam in the pool, road bikes, tried the Adventure Center at the base, played tennis and golf. We had a full vacation. Thanks for everything.

Cet appartement très bien situé au pied des pistes de ski et à l'environnement proche de forêts et lacs nous a permis de passer des vacances extraordinaires. Lumineux, confortable, spacieux, sécurisé, bien équipé, décoré avec beaucoup de soin et aux goûts raffinés, les propriétaires avaient mis à notre attention petits savons, informations sur les us et coutumes du dit appartement. Il se dégage de celui ci une chaleur de bien être facilitée par une vision panoramique sur la montagne. Fabuleux !!! Nous avons passé en été un merveilleux séjour agrémenté de balades pédestres et avons participé aux nombreuses activités proposées par le village de Whistler au charme incomparable. Nous le recommandons toute l'année et souhaiterions y séjourner l'hiver pour découvrir l'autre saisonnalité du manteau neigeux.

Thanks so much for the rental of your home. Loved it. It turned out that we had record snowfall for this time of year, 170+cm on the slopes! We were skiing in snow up to our armpits at times! That was too much! Too much fun that is! Thanks for the wonderful condo.

Dawne and Harry, Y'all have truly been a blessing to us. Both families needed a vacation to fellowship, play and challenge us. Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful condo and things. During our visit my Grandmother went to be with the Lord; it ministered greatly to be here in the mountains where we could see and feel God's presence. Our 4 year old learned to ski and sled - she loved both. God Bless, The Strahm Family
