Stay in our wonderful home in Pinecrest Estates Whistler!!! Get away from the hustle and bustle of Whistler Village in our peaceful forested development. Our Private Hot tub waits for you at the end of a day on the mountains. Callahan valley Nordic center is located between us and Whistler and has excellent cross country skiing and snow shoeing . We have our own private lake/beach and tennis courts and relaxing trails for mountain biking. One of the best hiking areas in Whistler is five minutes away, Black Tusk Mountain.
Our home has a warm ambiance with Pine floors and heated slate flooring in our downstairs bathroom and hallway.
Persian rugs, and antiques add comfort and charm. There are three large bedrooms, each bed has a cozy duvet. The master bedroom is on the main floor. The large loft has table tennis and our den is a great spot to look out over our deck and watch the latest DVD or the birds feeding in one of our several bird feeders. The kitchen is fully-equipped and we have a full-size washer and dryer.
You will have a terrific time!!! Our place is 2200 square feet and a great location for a family or group reunion.
We are close enough to Whistler to enjoy all it has to offer but far enough away to experience that 'getting away from it all feeling.'

About Marg Tennant
Hi , from Neil and Marg the owners of this property. Neil is a structural Engineer and Marg is a Nurse. We decided a few years ago that we wanted to have recreational property for our growing family, so we carefully looked at various properties in the Whistler area. We decided on Pinecrest for many reasons...the unique setting that provides a peaceful rural atmosphere plus having our own lake, tennis courts, relaxing walking trails and is a short drive to the growing Whistler Resort.
We find our area especially wonderful for families with no worries about traffic, kids can bike around our roads safely and it is just a short stroll down to the beach area of our Lake.
Marg Tennant purchased this house in 1985
Guestbook comments from the owner
Hi from the owners of the house, Marg and Neil!! We are a professional couple ( a structural Engineer and a Nurse) with a family who grew up vacationing in our lovely relaxing holiday home. We have a unique setting which is wonderful for families, a lake for swimming, tennis courts and a lovely, peaceful winter atmosphere in our forrested setting.
To explain the one negative comment: this was expressed by someone who we were not able to accomodate due to a need to do some maintenance work at the house/ and our own use.

Wonderful ski house
My family and friends joined me for a wonderful week at the Tennant's house as a base for skiing at Whistler. The location is very good - it is about 25 min south of Whistler Village, so it is also 25 min closer to Vancouver airport which worked very well for us as we had several people arriving and leaving during the week. I have previously stayed at ski-in ski-out at Whistler, which is obviously convenient for skiing, but this time we wanted to stay away from the main mountain in order to see a little more of this area of BC. This house worked well from that perspective - for example we could drive just 30 min to Squamish for shopping and to dine at the very good Indian restaurant and English fish and chip/pie restaurant. The house itself is beautiful and well equipped with everything you could need. Everything is exactly as described. The kitchen is well equipped, the beds very comfortable and the wood stove is easy to use and makes the house toasty! I spent one day relaxing at the house and it was very cosy. The very occasional train passing (only one or two day for the most part) adds interest and was not a disturbance at all. Another day my wife and I had a nice outing to nearby Brandywine falls and the nordic skiing center, with dinner at the Pony restaurant in Pemberton (excellent food and beer selection in a pub-like restaurant with great atmosphere and views). We had several inches or more of snow on several days while we were there, but this was not a problem because the neighborhood and our driveway were plowed regularly and the driveway was also salted.
I should also say that we could see this would be a great place to stay in the summer - such a beautiful area for hiking, or mountain biking at Whistler etc.
Marg and Neil were a delight to work with throughout the booking process and while we were staying at the house. They were always very responsive to any questions. During our stay there was a short water outage for a few hours due to some pipe work being done in the neighborhood. Marg and Neil kept on top of it, contacting the caretaker and keeping us updated with information which helped to make it only a very minor inconvenience.
In summary, we highly recommend staying at this property and hope to stay there again ourselves on a future trip to the area.
Cozy home on gorgeous lake!
We loved our time at this property. Surrounded by trees and short walk to the lake. The house is lovely and the hot tub is super relaxing. I am planning our next stay already. Marg and Neil are lovely hosts and there were zero hassles the whole trip. The cabin lacks nothing and the arrival was a breeze. Best VRBO experience to date.
Beautiful cabin,great location!
It's a beautiful cabin full off antiques and family memorabilia, I don't know how often owners visit there but we are charge cleaning fee and cleaning service doesn't do a great job! Cooking pots are grease dirty(there is a dishwasher),all antiques cover with dust, inside the kitchen cabinets filthy dirty(drawers) not plesent to even stick your fingers in. I wash both bedding (we use 2 bedrooms) and dry before leaving also start a load of towels.Train goes by the house very close, during the day it's ok but if it comes at 4:30AM honking like 5 times can be very alarming.Thank you for a vine but could not have it.Electronics in tv room didn't see any cleaning for long time very dusty, common garbage area overflowing with garbage.
Great house, beautiful setting
Was as advertised, quaint, quiet, homey, and funtional. Our whole family enjoyed our stay.
Charming cabin in the woods. Amazing location!
Stayed for the may long weekend with friends and family and absolutely loved it! There was plenty of space for both the adults and kids to relax and play. Beautiful location and amazing little community. We will definitely come back for another visit. Thank you Marg and Neil!
Cozy house, perfect for families!
We had two families here for 3 nights and loved it, very cozy, loved the separate TV room and hot tub. Kids loved the games upstairs! Only complaint was the bunk bed- very creaky and noisy. We ended up taking mattresses off and moving to floor. Otherwise great!
