2800 square foot 'True' ski-in/ski-out Luxury ski home - We've rented places that called themselves ski-in/ski-out and find ourselves disappointed when the owners took liberty with the term. This home is a 'TRUE' ski-in/ski-out home. You can ski down 'Bail Out' trail, look to the left and see the back of the home. Turn your skis off the trail, ski down 40 feet and you are at the back door. And when you want to get back on the slopes, put the skis back on and ski out the neighborhood down to the gondola on a trail next to the road. You NEVER have to take a step except to cross the back door threshold going into the home. You don't have to ski the trees, you don't have to sit down or side step and you don't have to be an expert skier. Our home is the closest house on the mountain to a ski trail.


Heated floors, slate floors, wood floors, granite countertops, granite window sills, TV's in bedrooms, dryer with drying center, ski to gondola, ski right to the hot tub and back door, 5 minute walk (or ski) to 5 restaurants, 3 bars, gondola, day lodge, rental shop, lift ticket office, general store, mountain bike trails and horseback riding outfit. Just a short gondola ride to world class Eagles Eye Restaurant. Short chairlift ride to Grizzly Bear refuge. 20 km of groomed Dawn Mountain cross country ski trails are 100 yards from home. 'Bail Out' ski trail is right behind home, no home is closer to the trail than this one. As the highest home in the neighborhood, the home commands the best views of the Columbia and Kicking Horse rivers and the Purcell and Dogtooth mountain ranges.

Kicking Horse Mountain : We love to ski and we love this mountain. The only mountain with better terrain (in our opinion) is Jackson Hole. The only mountain with better snow is Alta. The only place with a better view is Lake Louise. This mountain is the total package. It's huge and always has soft powder somewhere (even in spring). It has bumps, chutes, bowls, trees, glades, cornices, cliffs, terrain parks, back country and even bunny slopes, magic carpets, long meandering blues ('It's a 10' - 10 km long). We take several ski trips a year all over the US and Canada and chose Kicking Horse because it is the total package. Come try it (again) and we think you'll agree.

Golden Golf and Country Club: The Golden Golf Club is just 7 km away from the home on the main road to the house. It offers one of the most enjoyable golfing experiences you will find in Canada. The natural beauty of the Columbia Valley, makes the golf course an instant classic. Architects Bill Newis and Les Furber have done some of their best work in sculpting this fun, but challenging layout. The stunning Rocky, and Purcell mountains are uniquely framed, and each hole tells a great story.

Super nice house!
House is really nice! We used 4 of the 5 bedrooms. Beds comfortable. Living room and kitchen quite enjoyable. Nice view. 1BR/BA at entry level. Stairs to common areas and master BR with en-suite bath. Also another BR and guest bath on that level. Another set of stairs to 2BR and 1 bath. Lots of amenities especially for colder weather and skiing. Would definitely recommend!

Kicking Horse Golden Ultra
I came here with a group of friends to run the Golden Ultra trail race. This home was ideal for our group, with large comfy beds, private bathrooms, a large kitchen and a comfy living room. The hot tub at the back, surrounded by trees was a welcome retreat at the end of a long running day. This home was very neat and clean and stocked with all the essentials. The location was perfect! We had a great stay!

Mountain retreat
The house was well kept and had all amenities required.Myself and the family stayed over the weekend to enjoy the mountains on our way to Kelona and visited the Skybridge park which was great for the kids. The hot tub was great and Gabe was great with checking in and was very accommodating during our stay. Lots of beds for everyone and very comfortable. Mosquitoes were excessive so bring some spray and citronella and you will be fine. We highly enjoyed our stay and highly recommend this house and Gabe.

Excellent ski-in/ski-out home
We are 4 ski friends with non-ski partners. Perhaps the house was larger than we needed, but we enjoyed every inch of it. The house is spacious with high ceilings and lots of glass. We watched the sunrise over the mountains from the dining room window. The hot tub is perfect, with a handy supply of towels and flip-flops right by the back door. The kitchen is well equipped for cooking up a feast - however, it is 14 miles to town, so we did our shopping before arriving and were lucky to find some olive oil at the house. There is a well-stocked grocery store at the base of the mountain for supplemental purchases. Garage parking is a plus, especially since it snowed during our week. My only caution is that the bedrooms are not equally sized (perhaps to be expected): the master is huge and luxurious, and has the only ensuite bathroom. Two rooms include walk-in closets and two rooms do not have any closets. Also, Kicking Horse does not run the Pioneer lift often, so the ski back to the house at the end of the day requires a trip to the top.... you have to save some energy for your last run!

Perfect Family Christmas
We had a wonderful family ski holiday over Christmas. Our family of 7 adults had plenty of room and all couples had their own bathroom! The location was fabulous! Right on a ski out from the hill and even could cross county ski a few steps from the door. The property was all that we had expected and more!

Family ski getaway
We truly had a great escape at this house for a family ski holiday! The beds are comfy and the house was well supplied with everything we could possibly imagine. We skied to our door and the snow is incredible. The only thing I would have done differently was buy a lift pass for just the quad chair for myself and my 5 year old. A beautiful green ski hill for the children and the learning to ski.

Great location and access to ski resort
Spacious home with lots of room for everyone. An odd guest room which was an office converted it does not leave much room for privacy. Other than that, we only downfall was a late check in at 5pm then check out is 10am and with the very high nightly rate you really don't get the opportunity to enjoy the property for a long period of time and it feels that those could be adjusted as others in the community have different hours ... Overall great location to enjoy the beautiful ski resort.

Excellent family getaway
Thanks for an excellent time in your very well equipped home. Our family had the best getaway because we could all stay in the same home and eat and visit together but sleep separately and very well. We did not want for anything and the details were appreciated starting with the clear instructions so we knew where everything was and did not miss any playoff hockey figuring out the TVs (which are in every bedroom). It is right down to labels on all the light switches - just makes things simple for visitors. Even a high chair for the grandkids was in the home and most appreciated. Slippers at the door for inside the house and even flip flops for wearing out to the hot tub are further thoughtful details that add to a warming stay. As a host Gabe was great to work with and very accommodating. Thanks again for everything and we would recommend this home and host to anyone.

this house was everything we had hoped. We had 6 guys, with plenty of room to spread out. the hot tub was a welcomed relaxing finish to the day after riding KH, after Heli with Purcell, and the snowmobiling was excellent. the house allowed us to ski in and out, and was only a minute from the Heli and snowmobiles... definitely stay in this house!
