Welcome to our family retreat. Thanks for checking out our beautiful townhouse & for coming to Whistler. The photo tour starts with a image of the living area with a comfortable living area with fireplace, 40 inch Sony Bravia HD televison with PVR, MP3 dock with fantastic view of Whistler/Blackcomb
View of the complete kitchen with all of the appliances, utensils and cupboard space you need to create your own meals. If you feel like going out Symphony at Whistler is centrally located near many restaurants and fine dining that Whistler is famous for.
View of dining area that seats of to 6 people that overlooks living area
View of the Northside of Whistler Mountain from the upstairs deck
This is the Master bedroom with a king size bed. It also has a private deck that overlooks the mountains and lots of closet space. This bedroom also has a 16" television and its own ensuite washroom with large bath and shower.

This is the large common hot tub that seats up to 12 people. It is a great place to gather after a hard day of skiing. There is a mens and ladies washrooms with showers.
This is the private deck off the master bedroom that has a view of both Whistler and Blackcomb mountains and whistler village.
This is the second bedroom with twin and double beds and lots of closet space. There is a ensuite bathroom with a shower.
This is the entrance to the underground parking. There is 10 guest parking spots available and a gated parking area (key access) for security. Our parking spot is #34 in the gated parking area. If you have additional vehicles you may use the guest parking spots. If they are full yoy may park on the street on the same side as the entrance of the underground.
This is the blackcomb gondola that is located in Whistler Village. It is a 8-10 minute walk to this lift or we suggest you take the free shuttle that stops every 3 minutes located 200 yards from the front door of symphony.
Bottom of Blackcomb Glacier
The fallline ski runs in the Wizard and Solar Coaster Chair area. Could be the best runs in the world.

Map of Whistler Village - Click on picture to zoom in. Symphony is complex #9. Turn left at the 2nd whistler village entrance off hwy 99 and turn at your first left and the underground for symphony is directly on your left (see check in package for detailed directions and check in procedures)
Map of Whistler Village- Symphony is located at the corner of Lorimer Road and Northlands Blvd in Village North. The free shuttle stops on Lorimer Road and turns right down Blackcomb Way and stops at the Whistler Village Lifts. The travel time is approximately 10 minutes from your front door including walking to the shuttle stop and driving to the lifts. Tip- On busy ski days to avoid lineups I suggest taking the Fitzsimmons Quad Chair up Whistler Mountain.
Your Host Brad White has lived in the Whistler area for over 20 years. Book my townhouse and live an experience you will never forget. Whistler Resort offers an incredible skiing experience and the canadian hospitality is second to none. Thanks again visiting my site,resort and country!
