Photos and Description of the Whistler vacation condo rental
Condo, 2 Bedrooms, 1 Bath, (Sleeps 4-8) Ski-in/Ski-out

Ground floor 2 bdrm condo. Spacious layout in the newly renovated Lake Placid Lodge at the base of Whistler's Creekside Gondola.

You're coming to Whistler for a vacation... what's more important than being right at the base of a Chairlift?

How about being right at the base of the Creekside Gondola, where you can upload with the locals and avoid the crowds first thing in the morning? How about also having a Starbucks right across the street? A grocery store? Liquor Store? A Cold Beer & Wine Store? And of course it wouldn't be a ski vacation without experiencing the apres ski scene.

You'll deserve a big meal and some drinks after a day on the mountain. Dusty's is the best apres ski bar in town, especially if you want some local flavour, great music and drink specials... and a sprawling patio with a fire in the middle of it for the sunny days. If you like the Dusty's atmosphere a little too much and end up with a few too many drinks in you, just crawl down one flight of stairs and you're HOME! The recently renovated Lake Placid Lodge has a beautiful hot tub with room for the whole family or all the buddies you've brought along with you, as well as a pleasantly heated pool and sauna, with a covered BBQ area just steps from our ground floor condo's door.

We have plenty of parking spaces in the secure underground parkade, and you'd be right across the street from Whistler world class transit bus stop that will take you into the bustling village area if you get sick of the 8 restaurants ranging from Subway, to Boston Pizza, to Whistler finest dining experience at the Rim Rock Cafe, all within a 1 - 10 minute walk. Whistler also has a great taxi service to shuttle you home from the village if you don't feel like hopping on the bus after enjoying some of the best nightlife in the world. It's about a 7 minute drive from Creekside and you will instantly get back into relaxation mode when you get back to the quieter end of town, and crawl into bed to get ready to wake up and do it all again!

About Ashleigh McIvor

2010 Olympic Gold Medallist - Skicross

Born and Raised in Whistler

Ashleigh McIvor purchased this condo in 2010
Why Ashleigh McIvor chose Whistler

I never want to leave Whistler and this is the first place I have been able to purchase, after having grown up in town and skied all over the world. I just need to get some rental revenue coming in while I am away racing so I can make it all happen.

What makes this condo unique

-the location is unbeatable: the exterior pic of the building and the shot of the gondola are taken from the same spot, I just pivoted!

-I'll be happy to provide some expert local knowledge for restaurants, my favorite ski runs, etc...

-you'll have 2 parking spots in the secure underground

-ground floor, right at the entrance makes for less walking in ski boots

-I don't mind if you take your skis into the unit so they're totally safe

Great Location Great Owner

5 of 5
Submitted: February 17, 2013 Stayed: December 2012
We stayed over Christmas and our rental experience and stay was fantastic. The owner/manager went out of the way to help, including setting up and decorating a real Chrismas Tree.

The location may not exactly be ski-in/ski-out, but it's a short walk across the street. The unit is on the ground floor and could not be any closer to the entrance/exit.

I would highly recommend this property and owner.
Recommended for:  Age 55+, Adventure Seekers, Girls Getaway, Tourists without a Car, Sightseeing, Families with Teenagers, Families with Young Children, People with Disabilities, Romantic Getaway
Owner's Response: Thank you for the feedback, I'm glad you enjoyed your stay.

I've always called anything that's less than a 1 minute walk from where you click out of your skis "ski in/ski out", especially if it's a shorter walk than it would be to the closest parking lot, like ours is.

A lot of the properties that advertise this feature in Whistler are well over a 5 - 10 minute walk... it's just through a pedestrian zone, as opposed to across a side street. I could be more specific on the listing it you think it was misleading, but typically the Lake Placid Lodge is classified as ski in/ski out, and the map on the listing shows the exact location.

I really appreciate all of the nice things you said too, don't get me wrong! Thank you for your business and for being such a great tenant!
