In the heart of the Alpine Village is the Winter Wren, a perfect place for one or two families to spread out and enjoy. From here you can ski to the lifts or stare at the views of Strathcona Park. Here to relax? We have you covered; with no vehicle traffic you can watch the kids play outside without having to worry. Have fun playing a variety of board games, make memories and soak up the magic of the Alpine Vilage in style this winter at the Birdhouse. We are a ski out chalet and at the end of the day you will have to take your skis off to walk up the hill- the magic at the top is worth it!
The Winter Wren is a pet free accommodation; no exceptions.
During the winter months the village is walk in only. From the parking lot it is about a 7-8 minute walk to the Winter Wren and a 5 minute walk from the unloading area. We provide one complimentary shuttle in to deliver your bags and gear to your holiday home during ski season. The Winter Wren is designated for two parking spots during the winter months in the village parking lots.
During the summer/fall months you can drive right up to the Wren. There is road parking beside the building or you can park in Dougan's parking lot.
Note: The bunk beds are located in a common loft area.

About the host
Hosted by Karen and Jen at Birdhouse Vacations
We are two snow loving families who have grown up coming to Mount Washington since we were kids. We are thrilled to now be sharing that experience with our little ones and able to share our beautiful accommodation with others.
Why they chose this property
We have young children and being in the beautiful car free village is ideal for families that want to play in the snow without worrying about traffic. Added bonus is the beautiful scenery the village has to offer.
What makes this property unique
Renting out the Wren or adding on the connecting unit, The Dicky Bird, for extra beds will ensure a comfortable family get away for all.
