“Beautiful, well appointed chalet in good location” The pictures on the web site do not do the chalet justice. We had two families in the chalet for 8 days, and found it to be very comfortable. It is spread over 4 levels so there is never any feeling of being crowded - lots of space for everyone, except in the kitchen. These are the pros and cons: The Pros: - great location - 4 comfortable bedrooms and 2 comfortable sofa beds - ski-in and walk to ski-out - well appointed with plates, glasses and wine glasses, utensils and cooking pans and pots - pool table is good and popular - nice fireplace - two balconies - gas BBQ off main floor deck - heated floors are great - the garage off the main floor and extra parking are super convenient - the complex was very quiet - almost no noise at all The Cons: - the ski-in and ski-out is not for beginners - there is a hot tub on the deck but it is not functional (we knew this in advance) - there is a communal hot tub but it is down the road and not convenient, so we never used it - the shower heads in the 3 showers are pretty bad - desperately need to be upgraded - the kitchen, while well appointed, is only big enough for one person to be in it at a time all in all, would go back again!

“Peaceful Paradise” We really enjoyed our stay. The condo was very cozy and extremely peaceful. We wished we could have stayed longer than the 2 nights we booked and we will definately book this condo again when we stay in Sun Peaks the next time.

“Clean, convenient location, good value” Our family of four stayed here for a week in July. The place was clean and spacious, exactly as described. You can walk to the Blackcomb base where the family Adventure Zone and Blackcomb lifts are in about 5 minutes, and Whistler Village in about 15 minutes, half that time if you bike. Lost Lake is also about a 10 minute walk away. While relatively close to everything, it is far enough away to be very quiet at nights. It was nice to have a garage to store our bikes and other gear, but it is a little small to park a car unless you have a compact, and then there is no room to store anything else if a car is in there. No matter, there is covered parking about 100 feet away and you can park in front of the unit to unload. The condo is well furnished and the kitchen well stocked with utensils. WiFi is fast (I clocked it consistently at 15 Mbps downlink on speedtest) and there is Telus cable TV and a large flatscreen with a DVR in the living room - useful because we could record World Cup matches to watch in the evenings. Overall, this is a great place, but here are some minor issues/suggestions: - Balcony does not have a table. It would be nice to sit outside to eat there in the summer evenings. - Windows do not have screens. It was particularly hot the week we stayed so we needed to keep the windows open at night, and the lack of screens meant annoying flying insects got into the house. - We did not find the master bedroom mattress to be that comfortable.

“Beautiful condo with everything needed for a great holiday” Spacious , quite , relaxing atmosphere, beautiful spa. All makes for an enjoyable holiday.

“A great Spring Skiing Getaway in the middle of January!!” My family and friends had a wonderful stay this past weekend at Mr. Wiedemann's beautiful home located just a short walk off the "Hwy 33" ski run under the Bullet Express Chair (had there been fresh snow on the roads we could have skied in/out). We only had 6 people in our group consisting of 4 University students plus my wife and I, but the home could easily have handled more. The extra elbow room made it that much cozier for us anyway with great spots to quietly sit and study in front of the fireplace or loft, or to accommodate the whole gang for a boisterous sit down feast of slow cooked chilli after a post ski day soak in the hot tub. The Wiedemann's were gracious enough to leave a nice welcoming gift which was a surprising wonderful touch. I would strongly recommend anyone looking for a well cared for place to stay for a ski vacation to consider this location. The Goddard clan.

“Made our trip to Canada special!” Blue Heron made our first trip to Canada just perfect. We really enjoyed our stay and it was a real pleasure to meet you! We really enjoyed the fireplace and also algonquin's nature and wild life is just terrific. We will make sure to stop by at your awesome cottage on our next vacation to Canada We saw 7 moose in total!!! Were are all so happy and content

“Peaceful Oasis” We had the extreme pleasure of staying at Patricia and Scott's condo. What a magical place. The location could not have been better. Waking up in the morning with the ocean alongside the master bedroom and then spending the day gazing out at the unobstructed views. It took me an hour to jealously wander about the condo in awe of all of the perfect details. Everything was though of - you could easily host a dinner party for 8 here and not be missing a thing. We have stayed at the most exclusive resorts on the Island, but never have we felt as if we were truly coming "home" when we returned to our suite, like we did here. We have adopted the condo, and I have adopted the perfectly situated chaise lounge for hours of reading and gazing. It is dead quiet, with lots to observe in the ocean... that bay is always changing. We did a short (6km) hike nearby and strolled on the beach. Dug up and steamed clams as well as shucked oysters off the beach and pan fried them. Cannot wait to return! Thanks Patricia and Scott!

“God’s “back yard”” I was lucky enough to be invited along on a ski holiday with a friend and we stayed in this wonderful house about half an hour's drive from the Kicking Horse resort. I've got to say this was an experience of a lifetime! Apart for the skiing at both "Kicking horse" and "Lake Louise" (just over an hour away), we got involved in some other experiences. X-country skiing was a blast but harder than I was expecting and my posterior will bear witness to that. But I had a go at sledding (we call it skidooing), we managed to this right out of the yard onto some exciting trails. But the ultimate was ice fishing! I could not believe it .. We took the sleds on a trailer a few miles up the road and then disappeared into the back woods for 10 miles. Cut a hole in the ice and caught our licence quota of five fish each, it was unbelievable. Anyway back to the Lodge .. this is something special, ideal for a family of up to ten or a group of blokes like we were. This place has all the facilities and is kept immaculate. There is a hot tub we relaxed in at the end of a hard day's skiing. Plenty of facilities for drying clothes with a very efficient laundry system. Big satellite TV. There was even a telephone to make free calls back to UK landlines. There is Wi-Fi which had a slightly intermittent attitude. One of the most important items was "Dan the Man" who takes care of the property and he has his own apartment separate in the cellar. We found he was a fountain of local knowledge and knew everybody and how to get stuff organised. So it ticked all our boxes and then some .. then to top it all you just look out of the window and see the views and you know you're in God's Back Yard. I want to go here again and again! Tips: Rent an SUV or even two from Calgary. Buy lift tickets at Coscos in Calgary. Use the Hosts on the Mountain at either Kicking horse or Lake Louise, it's a free service and they guide you around the mountain to all the best runs in the weather and they love to do it.

“Wonderful Cottage” My wife and I stayed at Tony & Jennifer's cottage for a week on our honeymoon this past summer. It was a wonderful experience and they were a great couple to work with! Jennifer met us at the door and showed us around the place. They have carefully provided virtually everything a guest will need during their stay there--including things we hadn't considered! The quiet, beautiful layout was perfect for our first week of married life together as we took various trips out to explore the island. Jennifer had all the tourist info there that we needed to plan our explorations of the island. My wife and I would love to come back to PEI someday and we'd definitely book Tony & Jennifer's cottage again if it were available!

“Woodland setting and close to ocean, but still close to all amen” I have stayed at a lot of different rental properties and can honestly say that the Tanglewood Beach House is one of the best I have stayed at. They have a great book that the owners created outlining the area and what there is to do. It also includes a reference guide for the condo on simple things but things that if you don't live there you wouldn't know how to turn certain things on/off and which remote does what. The kitchen also has everything you need to cook with.

“Bliss!” You won't be disappointed with this lovely condo. The view is spectacular with amazing sunrises and sunsets, the fresh scent of sea air and the accomodation is terrific. There's lots of room to spread out and enjoy. This was our second year at this condo and we decided that we'll be regular visitors year after year - it's just that good! We find that we can't help but unwind and relax here and each visit we plan to spend at few days on site (instead of venturing out) taking in the sea, relaxing beside the pool or having a swim and beach combing! Roz has thought of everything in the unit so you just need to bring your personal effects and you'll be well taken care of. The unit is very clean, beds and pillows are comfortable and there's no traces of pets from previous visits. The complex is very well maintained with a playground for the little ones, tennis court, several patios with Weber bbqs for everyone to use, pool and hot tub, poolside lounge chairs as well as tables and chairs, firepit, dock for your boat or perhaps fishing, even a herb garden. Looking forward to next year already!
