Reviews
A fantastic holiday at a wonderful apartment.
Stephen from Rozelle Sydney, Australia
Date: Jan-25-2019 for a stay in Jan 2019
We highly recommend Heidi's property at the Aspens. The location of the apartment was fantastic, the ski slope was at your gate, and it is a very short 5-minute walk to the Upper Village.
The apartment itself is placed on the 5th floor, near to the end of a corridor, which means you have no noise from other residents. The ski valet service was excellent, and check-in was seamless. The apartment itself was well appointed and had plenty of cupboard place.
If you are planning a family trip to Blackcomb, or traveling with a second couple, this is the place to stay.

Another sucessful ski vaction
Michael from Newark, United States

We had the privilege of returning to stay again in this condo. With the 5 story view overlooking the courtyard, this is my favorite. We rented 3 condo this year in the Aspens , however as the coordinator of the annual ski trip this unit was the one I choose to reside in for the stay. The owners have always been extremely helpful in making sure our stay was 1st rate. The unit is at the end of the hall & close to the stairs so its quiet & easy in /out .
Got to meet Heidi in person on our check out day as she offer us late check out as the shuttle wasn't picking us up until 2 pm. Greatly appreciate the unit & the Schmidt family allowing us to rent from them again this year. They made us feel like family

Great unit except for the noisy neighbors!
Lori from Bothell, United States
Date: Sep-18-2018 for a stay in Sep 2018
The unit itself was very nice - looked out over the courtyard and the mountain, which was nice. The unit was spacious and well furnished, with easy access to the Village.
The main problem that we ran into was that there were no instructions about how to contact the front desk staff in case of an emergency. We were given a phone number if anything needed to be repaired but when there were loud party goers at the pool and then on the balcony of a lower floor unit, I had to get up, get dressed and go to the front desk at 3 AM to ask that something be done. There instruction sheet on the back of the door made clear that we were to be quiet, which were were, and that contact with Security could result in immediate eviction. BUT, we were given no instructions how to contact Security if other people weren't abiding by the rules! Very frustrating and certainly a big negative on our stay!

Location
Possibly the best slopeside location in Whistler. The Aspens on Blackcomb is located in the Upper Village, just up the slope from the Wizard Express high speed chair lift. Our suite is on the slope side of the Aspens. The ski school and Blackcomb Day Lodge are extremely close, making after-skiing pick up of children very convenient.
The Upper Village is favoured by those who want proximity to all Village attractions, while staying in a quieter neighbourhood. The Upper Village has a great selection of boutiques, ski shops, cafes, restaurants and bars, but the Village is only a pleasant 10 minute walk away. Lost Lake is also within walking distance.
Once you arrive at the Aspens you do not require a car, everything you need is accessible on foot.
At the base of Blackcomb Mountain, across the road from the Chateau Whistler Hotel, is a small gourmet grocery store, with a very good selection of food items, dairy and produce. Use this store for last minute items without going to the larger IGA supermarket in Village North. Link: http://www.uppervillagemarket.com/
