Dogtooth Vista at Kicking Horse Mountain Resort

Description from the owner

Dogtooth Vista is ideally located on Kicking Horse Mountain Resort and has great ‘ski-in ski –out’ access. Watch the sunrise over panoramic views of Mt Seven , Yoho National Park and the Blaeberry through floor to ceiling gable end windows. The west gable with its large window onto the ski hill and the Dogtooth Mountain range becomes the centre of attention in the late afternoon. The sunken hot tub offers a great place to gather after an exhilarating day skiing or imagine simply lounging on the sun-soaked expansive rear deck.

The Chalet uniquely combines the old world rustic qualities of a mountain retreat with modern convenience... and technology. The centerpiece of the house is a grand great room which is divided by a two-sided wood burning fireplace into a large spacious kitchen and central island perfect for apres ski festivities, and a comfortable living room. Through the centre of the house runs a large impressive timber frame truss, an architectural reflection on the early 20th century activities of the logging railroad, which is still evident traversing through the Dawn Mountain Cross Ski trails just to the rear of the chalet. In contrast 21st century amenities are in abundance and include Wifi internet, streamed tv and movies, HD satellite tv, large private outdoor hot-tub, wet-dry Finnish sauna, gourmet kitchen, granite counter tops, great room with 20 foot ceiling, second living room, dining room, geothermal radiant heat on all floors, two-sided wood fireplace and wood-stove, drying area and ski storage, tasteful furnishings.

The chalet is very spacious (3400 sq ft)with four bedrooms and 3 bathrooms,and sleeps comfortably 6- 12 people. It is perfect for couples and families. Special rates available for Christmas 2010, and we can offer flexible rates to accommodate your group .

This idyllic retreat is truly the best of both worlds; perfectly positioned for winter and summer vacations.

Situated in a natural, rural setting amongst the trees, you can enjoy privacy while relaxing in the hot tub on the deck. Ski in-ski out downhill access, and cross-country ski, mountain bike, hike or walk - off the beaten track - directly from your door. For the more adventurous world class back country skiing and mountaineering can be experienced at Roger’s Pass and the Bugaboos. Summer activities include 18 hole golf, horseback riding, para gliding, swimming, canoeing, fishing, rock climbing.

  Beautiful chalet with all the amenities. One of the best rental properties we've stayed at. We had 4 adults and 4 kids. Lots of room for everyone; could easily accommodate 3 families. Gorgeous sunrise through the lofted east facing windows, mountain views from the hot tub. Perfect spring skiing conditions. Excellent nordic trails walking distance from the chalet. Would love to come back in the summer for mountain biking, hiking.

  Location, location, location... oh, and luxury!

  We've been to Dogtooth Vista several times in both summer and winter. This place has it all... ski in / ski out access to both the Kicking Horse mountain (which boasts incredible snow and terrain for every level of skier) as well as the Dawn Mountain cross country trails (miles and miles of cross country trails that are impeccably maintained). In addition, the house is walking distance to several cozy restaurants and pubs (many of which allow children up until about 9:00 pm). In the summer, you can ride or walk directly from the house to beautiful hiking and biking trails as well as some swimming lakes. But, really, why leave the house at all... instead, I've spent days curled up by the wood-burning fire on the main floor, or wood-burning stove in the ground-level rec room... or endless hours in the outdoor hot tub enjoying the scenery... or hours in the lovely cedar-lined sauna... or hours around the huge kitchen island drinking wine and talking with friends. This place is also very well managed and the owners have done an excellent job furnishing and stocking the place with everything you may need for short or a long stay. Can't wait to go back again!
