This is a fabulous place to stay: well appointed house, great for a family gathering, attentive host, as close to a ski in/ ski out without being one- we loaded the kids and skis in the back of the truck and within 2 min had them dropped off at the lift.

Wonderful! Thank you for the reply and staying with us!
We're already looking at rebooking for next year.The kitchen and the BBQ patio are both very well-equipped.The garage fits 2 full size pick-up trucks so the clubs didn't need to be moved inside every night.The only thing we would have wanted would be a TV on the main floor as our stay was during the 2026 World Cup. The TV downstairs was fantastic though.A great property in a great location for an 8 man golf trip!

Wonderful review, thank you, Dennis! Book early and happy to help - and yes, we appreciate the info on the TV on the main floor...ideally, we'd have a moveable TV for the occasional sporting event to be watched on the main floor. However, we do take pride in creating a space for family and friends connection on the main. Tough to have all the things, all the time!
We were a group of 9 women and The Woods was everything we had hoped it would be! Such a great space, super clean, and extra touches such as throws on the couches, delicious local coffee beans and a "leave one/take one library"! Alicia was extremely pleasant to work with and super responsive. We enjoyed it so much that we're going to book it again next year!

We had the absolute pleasure of hosting a wonderful crew of local ladies in The Woods on Stemwinder by Simply Kimberley. Alicia and I will look forward to their return down the line!
My family and I stayed in this beautiful home for a wedding weekend. It was well stocked and Tod was so easy to contact with any questions or concerns. I would definitely recommend staying here.

Thank you for your review, Anne and it was wonderful to host your family.
House was exactly like the photos and description. Lots of space for 3 families. Location was amazing. A 5 min walk to the base of Kimberley Mountain. Tod was quick to respond and helpful with any questions or requests. Would stay here again. Great house with a well stocked kitchen!

Wonderful review, Ingrid. I am glad your families had a great time in Kimberley and The Woods!
Great property. Very clean and well kept. Lots of space ( could have brought another family!) not ski in ski out but super close to the parking at the base of hill. We thoroughly enjoyed the stay.

Thanks for the great review, Kevin. Glad we could accommodate your group! Cya next time.
This rental is perfect for a large group enjoying the mountain or nearby golf. We loved our stay! The house is clean, modern, comfortable and the hosts have thought of everything you could need in terms of appliances and amenities. The kids all enjoyed the hot tub and game room. Some of our group walked to the ski lift/home - it is so close.
We can’t wait to come back!!

This was the best place to spend the weekend celebrating my birthday. It is absolutely beautiful, the pictures don’t do it justice, I was amazed when I walked in the door. It was above and beyond my expectations.
Such a great place. Very spacious yet cozy and comfortable. It was really special having a real fire in the wood burning fireplace. We really enjoyed the hot tub and games area in the basement. The kids had fun playing hide and sink and running around. It was great for our winter ski vacation, now I want to return sometime in the summer!

Oh Chen - what a wonderful review and we're so happy your family loved The Woods! We look forward to your return:) tod
This was an excellent place for the 11 people in our extended family. Big open areas, beautiful dining table, lots of bedrooms with various sleeping arrangements suitable for the teens and smaller kids and.....a separate "Harry Potter" style alcove for the 3 year old in one of the upstairs bedrooms! The hot tub and outdoor patios for quiet evening gatherings were also enjoyed. The only small comment I will add, is that you should check with management if you have more than 10 guests in your party as you may need to pay extra. Otherwise, communication with Tod was quick and he provided lots of good information about Kimberley and surrounding area.

Hi Kieran - and a big thank you for your detailed feedback and review, it's appreciated! Glad to know the family had a great time in The Woods. Yes, when we have 12 golfers in the property, we do need to charge for additional occupants as it's a lot of wear and tear. I wish the VRBO platform could differentiate 12 guys from a family group of 12! Regardless, glad we could get it sorted with you and we'll sure welcome you back.
This property was in an amazing location. Short walk to hill, it also was fully stocked with the necessary items that so many Vrbo don’t have(salt pepper coffee filters aluminum foil) etc. we always pack theses things but it was so nice that it was all there just in case. The natural fire was Awsome after a day in the ski hill along with the hot tub. Very spacious with all my kids and grand kid there.
The one, hot tub not heating, was fixed within an hour of phone call. That was our mess up for happening. But regardless it was addressed quickly.
We would definitely rent this space again, and tell our friends about it.

What a wonderful review, Kim. Thank you:) it always feels so great to the Simply Kimberley team when our systems and efforts go noticed! Love to host your family again in one of our properties and yes, The Woods on Stemwinder by Simply Kimberley is a super special house.
Wow! This place is even nicer than it looks in the pictures. . . and it looks pretty darn nice in the pictures! Our family had a great getaway with our friends and their kids. Lots of space and lots of bedrooms (everyone said they had a comfy sleep) and the kitchen had everything we could have possibly needed.
I loved having my morning coffee in the hot tub - so private with a beautiful view of the trees. . . while the kids had their epic foosball battles inside.
Just across the street is the “Peak to Platzle” walkway and we all loved the walk down for an ice cream. I’m sure it would be a nice walk back after the pub but we hit up one of the local places up on the hill.
Ok, I kinda fell in love with Kimberley on this trip. The bike trails, the scenery, the restaurants. . . we’d love to stay here again and try on golfing or skiing next time. Great house. Great location.

Thank you for the absolutely wonderful and detailed review, Kelsey. As the newest (and one of the sweetest) vacation rental houses at the base of the ski hill in Kimberley, BC, we’re so appreciative of your booking and review to help get the word out! We’ll look forward to hosting your family down the line.
My family and I have been visiting Kimberley for over 20 years. Skiing, downhill and cross country, biking and hiking trails Kimberley doesn't disappoint. We started when my children were in high school & junior high. Now that we have 9 grandchildren our daughters, their spouses, my wife and I have continued to enjoy the outdoors activities available in Kimberley.
We have rented with Tod on and off over those 20+ years and as always Tod does a fantastic job with his properties. Tod is quick to respond and addresses our needs and requests promptly. If your skiing, get your lift tickets through Tod's property rentals, you won't find better value for lift tickets than this.
This is the first time renting the Woods on Stemwinder Drive and it was fantastic!! The sleeping accommodations and open floor concept, main and lower floors, handled our large group easily with each family (5) in their own room with their children. The Woods is an open floor design with large groups/families in mind. The large dining area and table provided ample space for meals and the living room and the family room downstairs provided ample seating and play areas. The kitchen (and barbeque) are well stocked with everything we needed to prepare and serve our meals. Laundry facilities are well stocked and very much a necessity with a large group. Of course the hot tub is always a hit with the grandchildren, and their parents, especially with snow banks close by!
Thanks Tod, fantastic property and thank
