Snowbird Cabin

Right in the village yet still on the quiet side...even during the craziness of Crankworx. The layout (with one bedroom on main and other self contained upstairs) was perfect for a family with teenagers. Starting to show a little wear and tear (entry, carpets, couch) but didn't really detract. Good kitchen. Love the deck, the hot tub up on roof deck was nice, and the complex's pool was fun to hang out. Good locked storage for all the bikes and toys. Bike trails right there.

But, again, the bonus here is location. Can't be beat for the value. Thanks for having us. We'll be back.

I loved the location of this unit. It is a very short walk to the village, yet it is extremely quiet during the day and night. The secure parking stall was very close to the unit which made unloading our vehicle upon arrival a breeze.

The layout of this unit was perfect for our family's needs. Our adult kids slept upstairs which allowed both my husband and I to get up early and not worry about disrupting their sleep with any noise in the kitchen. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes, pots, and pans. The private hot tub on the upper deck was a welcome treat after hiking and biking.

The owner, Steve, was great to deal with. Overall, I would say this was a very good value.

Great location, large condo, but the layout is a bit strange. Probably best for a group traveling together. Several light fixtures were out upon check in, just needed bulbs, but that seems like something that should have been addressed. The beds were comfortable, but the couch was not, it is a less comfortable sofa bed than most (that is saying something). The condo is in an excellent location, I love the private hot tub.

They have guests launder their towels upon departure, not a great system as the towels sat in the wash, wet for some time before they were dried as they smelled extremely sour. We had to go to the store and purchase vinegar to get the smell out so we could use the towels.

Some tlc, a few updates and fresh towels, I would stay here again.

Nice place. The location is fantastic. Right across the road from Marketplace with access to the village.

Great Unit! Fantastic location - quick easy walk to the grocery store, village stroll, and shuttle bus to the ski lifts! Kitchen was well stocked, and the owner was incredible to deal with!! Hot tub was excellent and relaxing after a long day skiing. I highly recommend this unit for a great ski/winter getaway!

Having a private hot tub was the main reasons why we rented this unit, and not only was it old and the jets didn't work, but it was caked in grime and was absolutely disgusting. There was a soaking wet frozen towel and some empty beer cans there too. Floating crap and who knows what... The owner is friendly. However, he didn't send us the door passcode until we texted to remind him to do so.

Lots of towels, kitchen is ok, parking is close and easy, place is warm and nice. Furniture is old and used, not much room in the common area...but hey, we were there to enjoy the outdoors. I'd recommend and rent the place again based on the owner being easy to deal with, but that hot tub fiasco sure was a bummer.

Loved the Snowbird Condo!

Although it was a tad bit tricky to locate the residence (kind of like a scavenger hunt). We were stoked to see that it was exactly what we were looking for. A beautiful location only a few minutes walk to the village and our own private hot tub. The previous reviews of a dirty floor and moldy deck to me now seem like nit picking. Indoors, the condo was very clean and in great condition. The hot tub deck has been used and that is expected. The rest of the building was very quite which made our time very enjoyable.

Thanks for great stay!

We really enjoyed staying here. The location is perfect. The check-in process was easy and quick. It's outside the noise of Whistler village, but just right across the street, so immediately accessible. The outside deck off the living room is fantastic. The kitchen was small but had a large choice of appliances. There were 2 bedrooms with plenty of sleeping options. The unit was clean and organized.

The community pool and hot tub was close, clean and very nice. There was plenty of storage and the parking was secure. The only reason I am taking off a star is because the hot tub for the unit had a massive leak and the deck underneath was rotting.

Otherwise great value for the price, and we'd definitely stay here again.

I was a long time owner in Whistler (13 years, having just sold our unit in Town Plaza last year). I always appreciated when guests provided feedback and took their comments seriously. Please view the following comments in that light!

I liked the unit and it was good value for the money. The kitchen was small but adequate and well-stocked with spices, cooking oil, etc. The beds were comfortable and the hot tub was in good working order. The air conditioners were old but serviceable and greatly appreciated as we were there over the August long weekend and it was hot. The location was good and the pool was nice.

However, the unit was tired and by that I mean furniture looked and felt shabby, esp. the living room furniture and dining room table. The patio was dirty to the point of being disgusting. Whoever is cleaning your condo needs to pay attention to that part of your unit. When we walked barefoot in the condo our feet were filthy within minutes. I ended up putting shoes on my kids inside the condo because if I didn't their feet were totally grimy by bedtime, even after they just came out of the bath a few minutes before. A deep clean is definitely in order for both the inside and outside of the condo. I also suggest an instruction sheet on how to use the TV/cable. It was somewhat confusing but we figured it out.

There was an incident which I found annoying and quite frankly reduced my recommendation from a 3 star to a 2 star. It had to do with a security guard who worked at Glacier. I accidentally left my cell phone down at the pool on Friday afternoon when I was there with my kids. Apparently there were some hooligans who trashed the pool late Friday night or early Sat. morning. RCMP were called. My phone was found by your security guard after this incident. His brilliant detective work (NOT) led him to the conclusion that somehow I was involved in the break in at the pool since he found the phone after the break in and "it was wet". I told him that obviously the phone had been at the pool at the time of the break in but he was certain it wasn't "since he'd already checked the area and the phone wasn't there BEFORE the incident and was there AFTER." I subsequently was accused of being one of the vandals by said security guard who refused to return my phone without proof I was staying at the unit. I am not comfortable providing any stranger with any information regarding my privacy because I have 3 small kids. For all I know, this guy could have been involved in the incident himself. He was exceedingly rude and obnoxious and instead of returning my phone as I requested, made it necessary for me to contact RCMP myself and go down to their office to retrieve my phone. This all could have been avoided if he'd asked a few simple questions instead of accusing me with several statements such as "I know you were involved in trashing the pool" and "I'm not returning your phone since obviously you had something to do with this." I left you a few messages about this incident, and I am disappointed frankly that my phone calls to you (the owner) weren't returned.

This condo met all of our needs!! The amenities in the kitchen were above expectation. My only comment (not complaint) is it needs a yearly deep clean. Walls, door, rails dust bunnies on the ceilings. Other than that everything was wonderful!! Will visit again.

A few friends of mine and I decided to head up to Whistler for the weekend and booked the Snowbird Cabin quite last minute. When we arrived we were delighted to find a comfortable place for us to relax with a couple of great patios. (one with a hot tub!) It was a short 5 minute walk to the village and an extremely convenient location. Steven has been very prompt with his responses and I highly recommend this place if you want an affordable home away from home. The kitchen was well stocked and we cooked dinner there most nights on the very nice bbq provided. Parking is literally down the stairs from the place which was a nice bonus! My friends were extremely happy and suggested we do this every year!

I Recommend this townhome to anybody wanting a quite,clean, all the ammenties of home stay in Whistler. My Wife and I enjoyed the Unit very much, the leather coaches and wall mount Flat Screen TV was wonderful. The Private Balcony where the HOT TUB resided was the best I have seen at the Glaciers Reach Complex thus far. Complete privacy, facing a Trail it was wonderful. I have suggested to the Owner that the Jets were not aggressive in terms of the HOT, and he has stated that a new Hot Tub will be going in very soon. I look forward to staying hear again when that goes in!

This is an excellent place to stay in Whistler village. I stayed in a similar Glaciers Reach condo last year and can't think of a better place to stay. You can't beat this units private hot tub, private grill, 2 full decks and fully stocked kitchen. Its close enough to everything without being cramped up in a tiny unit next to the lifts, but still just s short walk. Everything was as advertised. On top of that, the owner, Steve was very friendly and had no problem fixing the dates on my reservation when I accidentally booked too many days. Overall great place to stay with hassle free booking.

The unit was nice enough, but there were several issues: 1. By the time we got to Whistler, we still hadn't received the code to get in to the unit. It took an extra hour (an hour past the check-in time) to get the owner to text us the code. An hour spent worrying what we'd do if he didn't get back to us (BTW, AlluraDirect is closed on weekends). 2. It's been 6 weeks and we still haven't received a check for the damage deposit. 3. The "hot" tub was luke warm and we never found the temp. switch. 4. The living room furniture looks good, but the springs are shot, so it isn't very comfortable.
