Lorimer Ridge is one of the largest (4840 square feet) and most prestigious rental properties in all of Whistler. Ideal location coupled with competitive pricing makes this extraordinary property the perfect location for your group.

Whether it's summer time leisure fun you seek or a fabulous winter playground, the Lorimer Ridge Lodge is the place to enjoy it all. We have 10 bedrooms and can sleep up to 24 (this web site - Alluradirect - is only set to describe properties with six or less bedrooms and accommodate 20... or less persons, hence the conflicting information at the top of this page). Rest assured, we have 10 bedrooms, 18 beds and can sleep up to 22. Amenities include large private hottub, four decks, two wood burning fireplaces, billiards room two living rooms, 3 flat screen televisions with cable, 2 kitchens and dining/meeting seating (with place settings) for up to 22 people.

If the property is too large for your group (only need 4, 5, 6, 7, or 8 bedrooms), there is a solution:

If we are not booked 90 days in advance during weeknights (Sunday-Thursday) or 30 days in advance for weekend nights (Friday and Saturday), then we can book your smaller group at a pro-rated amount based on the number of bedrooms that you require. Call 1-888-988-9002 for details. Under these circumstances, you get all of our exquisite common area amenities (gourmet kitchen, hot tub, sauna, billiards room and much, much more) for the price of a much smaller rental.

  Value for families/large groups - enormous, clean, inexpensive,

  Left on 03/05/2013 for a stay in February 2013
  
  

  Our family group of 23 stayed at Lorimer Ridge over Presidents Weekend 2013. We had 13 adults, 10 children. We filled every bed in the house, including the trundle, and we were very comfortable.
  
  Beds were comfortable. You can see the website for the various rooms' bed configurations. Each room has its own bathroom, which adds privacy and ensures that people aren't competing for bathrooms. There is a communal hot tub, sauna, and pool table, and there are several spacious and comfortable common areas for hanging out. After our ski days, we would routinely have most if not all 23 of us in the house at once, sometimes all of us in the adjacent dining & living rooms, and the space never felt cramped. The kitchen facilities are excellent.
  
  For the size and cost, the location is very good. Although the house is not in the village (thus only 4 stars not 5), it is a quick drive and a pleasant walk if you aren't carrying ski equipment. There are also free buses (and a paid shuttle service) that will take you to the village. Not being directly in the village is inconvenient for skiing, but it adds privacy since the house is tucked back on property that is off a quiet street.
  
  We had some difficulty getting Dvds to work on the TV/DVD setups in the house (there are several different areas with flat panel TVs and DVD players). We ultimately managed to get one working with the help of the house caretaker.
  
  We also had an issue with one of the toilets, which was not immediately fixed. Although this remained a problem and was not resolved until after we left, Fernando was very professional in dealing with it after the fact.
  
  The house is an immediate left turn once you turn onto Piccolo from Lorimer. There is a sign in front, but one car in our group missed the turn, so go slowly and be aware that the turn is basically immediate.
  
  I recommend the house for large groups seeking a reasonably priced, clean, comfortable house with ample common areas near Whistler Village.

  Excellent Stay & Location!

  Left on 09/08/2011 for a stay in August 2011
  
  

  We booked this property based on its size as it has 10 bedrooms each with its own private ensuite (!) and can sleep 20 people very comfortably with Queen and Twin Rooms. With 3 floors, it does give your group quite a bit of privacy if needed, but also a nice communal room on the main floor and the ground level to gather.
  
  The kitchen has everything you need if your group wants to stay in and cook. Pots, pans, dishes, cutlery, glasses and mixing bowls of all sizes are available to use with a large centre island for putting things together. The living room has a long table that could seat just about everyone in our party, plus there's couches and some open space to move around freely. The large deck is great in the summer and has enough seating for about 8 around the patio table. There's also a barbecue to use.
  
  The one thing we weren't aware of ahead of time was that there is an onsite caretaker who lives downstairs. They do have a private entrance and are on the other side of the house so other than upon arrival, we didn't see her at all so that was not an issue.
  
  There's a billiards table downstairs which we did use as well as a hot tub which some of our friends used as well. I didn't see the hot tub myself, but from what the others said, it wasn't in the best condition, probably could've used some cleaning. Not a big issue though, and people still used it.
  
  Room bedding was very comfortable and bathrooms are kept clean with towels and even soaps for you to use.
  
  We are used to booking townhouses when we go up to Whistler, but usually have to book 2 side-by-side so this was a really nice option to all be together! The bonus is that since this is an actual house, there is plenty of space for parking. You could probably fit around 6 or more cars comfortably.
  
  Location-wise, it's a short walk to the Village and the Marketplace IGa, maybe about 10 minutes? Very easy to find, just a few turns off the main highway, but not close enough that you can hear any noise. You can't get much better all-around than Lorimer Ridge Lodge!
