Mountainside Chalet, with Stunning View & Hot Tub

We would like to inform any guests looking to book in June, that all properties in the Heights complex will undergo a window upgrade project during this time. Whilst we expect disturbances to be minimal, we anticipate that there will be some noise from power tools and workers, and may be evidence of the ongoing building work within the neighborhood. We have included a construction discount at the time of booking as compensation for any disturbances. Please review the Things to Know section or ask our Guest Services team for further information

Ski Access

This home offers winter enthusiasts access to the nearby Dave Murray ski trail and the 2010 Olympic downhill run, which descends to the Creekside Gondola. Please note that the Dave Murray ski-out trail is suitable for an intermediate-level skier and is not well-suited for beginners. The signed entrance to the ski-out is found next to Taluswood the Heights #1. At the end of this trail, you will need to take off your skis/snowboard to cross the road, from where you will continue to ski down the Lower Dave Murray Downhill run to get to the Creekside Gondola. The Ski-Home trail is located off the Lower Dave Murray Downhill run. Watch for the Green Olympic rings on the skier's right when descending Dave Murray, turning right, above the Olympic Rings, onto the Home Run trail. Follow this trail (skiing above the Fairmont Heritage Place) to Taluswood the Lookout complex, from where it is less than a 1-minute walk back to unit #1. Ski access typically begins in late December and ends in March. The Guest Services team can confirm snow levels shortly before arrival.
