The Snowgoose Condo
Laurie from Toronto, Canada
Date: Jan-23-2018 for a stay in Dec 2017
Our family has spent the past 4 Christmas holiday weeks at the Snowgoose, and feel “at home”. Marc and Vicky Rizzardo are the perfect hosts, accommodating and responsive. The Snowgoose is always clean and well appointed on arrival, and basic supplies are made available. Situated at Blackcomb Way and Painted Cliff, the shuttle bus makes access to the mountain effortless. Trails through the Benchlands connect to the Upper Village, Lost Lake, and a ski out from Blackcomb Mtn. We hope to return again to enjoy the Snowgoose and Whistler Blackcomb at Christmas.

Location
Blackcomb Benchlands... The best way to be close to the Village and yet have some privacy and quiet. We are on the corner of Blackcomb Way and Painted Cliff Road. A free bus comes by our place every 8 minutes and can take you to the lifts or village. It is a pleasant 10-15 minute walk to the village. We are a short walk away from Lost Lake as well.
