That is heated. Can’t say enough about the private Jacuzzi used daily . .. lots of towels on hand … mahalo Nam’s

Great Space for a Ski in Ski out week.
We had a great stay, loved the two bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms and separate bedroom and bathroom in the basement. The living space and kitchen had great space for hanging out, playing games and relaxing. We loved that they had a pantry for our food💜 Also great closet and dresser space. Having the two living spaces was amazing for the kids. The ski bench, hooks and ski map In the garage are brilliant. We would defiantly book again. Renee and Alex

We just returned from our ski trip. From the check-in to the check-out, the experience was excellent. Gregg is very responsive. The accommodations are perfect, true ski-in ski-out. The set-up in the garage for all the ski gear is amazing and super convenient. Lots of space to chill, kitchen well appointed with every you need. Definitely recommend this unit.

Amazing place with great ski in/out access!
Beautiful, clean and well stocked - this true ski in/out house has it all! Close walk to the village for a night out, and quick and easy ski access for lunches back at the house. The unit is as great as advertised. Couldn't ask for more out of a ski vacation - would love to come back another time! 100% recommend!

Excellent 5 start ski in/out luxury townhome
We spent a week at this great home on the mountain at big white. The property was exactly as advertised. Most importantly for us it was ski in/out. You can put your skies on from the garage and push yourself to the trail 10-20 steps away. You can ski right back to the garage which is the 3rd house from the slope. Excellent set up in the heated garage to take off boots and skis. We had a large suv which we parked in there as well. We had 2 adults and 3 kids so there was plenty of room in the home. The house is fully stocked with dishes, condiments, cleaning supplies, laundry detergent, soap, etc. Very similar to what you would find in your own home. There is 1 bedroom with bunks downstairs and 2 bedrooms upstairs 3rd floor. Master with electric fireplace which was pretty cool. 3 updated bathrooms. Cable tv so we could watch our bowl games. Xbox and Apple TV for our kids. Easy downhill walk to happy valley and gondola ride up to the village. From there a 5 min quick walk back to the house. Although we did drive down to happy valley a few times since we had a car. Owners are very responsive and easy to reach. Overall a great experience. Would be very happy to stay there again. We go through countless reviews when we travel so I hope this helps.

Fantastic
The property was perfect for our family of 6 and could comfortably sleep two families of 4. The views out of the main lounge room were amazing and the convenience of skiing out from the back door was exactly what we were after. The location midway between Happy Valley and the Village was perfect, no more than a 10min stroll down or up for dinner. our family loved our week there and the property was excellent value for money. Having the owner readily available for questions was also comforting as was the comprehensive guide to the property and mountain. A fantastic week.

Wonderful trip to Big White
Lovely home, fabulous location, and we all loved the set up in the garage for storage of ski gear and getting ready for the slopes in the mornings. Great ski in and out, and easy access to the village. All amenities as described and more, plenty of space, and very enjoyable hot tub at the end of each day! Thank you Gregg and Lisa

Wonderful 10 days.
From our first contact booking the condo our experience has been wonderful. Gregg and Lisa have been in constant contact giving wonderful "tips". The condo is a definite ski out ski in. Eadie walk to both upper and lower village. There is everything you could possibly want in The condo. The outdoor hot tub was fantastic and serviced regularly. Bottles of wine were a lovely treat. We will definitely be returning. Thank you Gregg and Lisa.

Nice Condo with Great hill location.
The condo is very nice and has a great setup for storing equipment in the heated garage. Great location that is convenient for ski in/ski out. The private hot tub was awesome after a day on the slopes. The personal contact from the owners was very professional and appreciated.

Great location, great hosts
I have rented MANY vacation homes over the years and Gregg and Lisa were by far the most helpful and responsive hosts I have encountered. They provided clear instructions for everything and were quick to answer questions. We were a group of 7 adults and loved the location of the home and the fact that there were 3 full bathrooms. Ski-in, ski-out was excellent on skis but a bit tougher on snowboards as are there flat spots through the village and on the ski-out to the Ridge Rocket, but proximity to village, the gondola and night skiing overcame that small obstacle. Kitchen was well stocked, the hottub was hot and the entire group had a great time, Gregg you were right, we all LOVED the heated garage! Special mention goes to the hosts for providing wine, a discount on our stay and a late checkout. You won't regret staying here.

This place is awesome, beautifully positioned in a fantastic ski in ski out picture book ski villag
We stayed as a family of 6, for 4y.o to 50y.o, and was never cramped or tripping over each other. This is a very comfortable home to relax and recharge for another day of great powder snow. Everything we needed was in the home, from the kitchen appliances, to the bathroom setup with luxurious towels, and carpeted bedroom floors with ensures. The drying room/garage was such a convenient area to come and go from, as kitting up or stripping down for skiing can be so awkward and inconvenient if not set up right. This was perfect. The hot tub was a great feature, which we usually soaked in the mornings to warm our muscles and joints before another flogging on the slopes. Gregg's communication prior to our stay was extremely hospitable and helpful, with even a followup call to make sure we were settled in. I thoroughly recommend this beautiful, comfortable and conveniently positioned home which we found even better than the photos show. Thanks Gregg and Lisa for opening your home up to us Regards, Rick, Sally, Jessica, Thomas, Nathan and Charlotte.

We stayed at this fantastic condo in March 2017. The condo has a great set up with plenty of space and everything you will need for your stay. It was clean, comfortable, well maintained, and very well equipped. The owner was great to deal with and the ski in ski out couldn't have been easier. We would definitely recommend this condo!
