Brand new 3 story chalet with 2 master bedrooms. A one minute drive to ski lift, close to hiking and mountain biking. Have fun in this stylish place with the whole family or a group of friends. Enjoy a coffee or glass of wine on the balcony overlooking Strathcona park. The large kitchen is a chef's dream. Tons of counter space, an induction range, espresso machine, coffee maker, dishwasher, and fridge with ice maker. The large quartz island seats 4 and up to 8 at the dining room table. There is also a half bath on the top floor so you don’t have to keep running up and down the stairs. Relax on the large U-shaped sectional after a long day on the slopes, with a Netflix movie on the 65" Tv. If you need a little extra space from your travel companions, there is a lower level bonus room complete with air hockey, plenty of board games, and a second 65" TV.

The second level has 4 bedrooms. 2 are masters with ensuites, a third queen room, and a bunk room and a third bathroom. The master bedroom at the front of the chalet has a daybed and a bonus kitchenette for extra storage or the couple who enjoys their coffee in bed.

My girlfriends and I had a wonderful stay at the Big Bear Chalet and it had everything we needed and so much space! The location was super convenient for us as we were only minutes away from the trailhead parking into some fabulous hiking trails in Strathcona Park. Laine was also very responsive when I had any questions.

We had a great stay! Loved the place and it was the perfect layout for kids and adults. We will definitely book again.
The house was spacious, well organized and clean. We enjoyed the big windows and individual bathrooms was a bonus. Kids had fun in the playroom. It was a great stay for a family.
A comfortable, well maintained property. In the summer it was a perfect place to explore the surroundings with its trails, lakes, and an active chair lift to take us to the summit for views and more trails.
The property description was very accurate. Check-in was extremely easy and the location ideal. We had a great stay with 6 adults and 6 children. The separation of space between games room and bedroom/living was perfect.
We had a lovely time with the cousins and their little ones! The chalet was clean and bright with good sleeping accommodations. Blue sky, but unfortunately no snow! Tubing and bunny hills for the little ones were great…
We had a great stay in this beautiful house. The kitchen was well equipped, all the beds were comfy, and the bonus room was great for the kids.The host was very very responsive to our sometimes -dumb questions.The location is beautiful. The heating system kept us cosy without being too warm or too cold. The electric fireplace was perfect for taking the chill off the living room. Overall we had a wonderful Family Weekend at Big Bear Chalet.
Beautiful place. Brand new. Lots of room. Close to lifts. Had a great time with extended family over Christmas. Thanks.
