Large Ski-In / Ski-Out Timber Frame House, Open Concept, Hot Tub

This custom 5 bedroom timber frame chalet sits at the top of the Purcell Woods Close loop at Kicking Horse Mountain Ski Resort. The house and the area are great year ‘round.

In the winter, grab your skis or snowboard and you’re steps from a groomed trail that takes you right to the resort with chair lifts and gondola. After skiing, you can take a groomed path that comes out directly across the street from the house. A true ski-in and ski-out!

In addition to being on a world class ski hill, there are several National Parks, hundreds of kilometers of mountain biking trails, tons of hiking, Cedar Lake beach, shops, restaurants, coffee shops, kayaking, white water rafting, fishing, golf, horseback riding, attractions like the Skybridge, the town of Golden and more all nearby.

The house has 5 bedroom, 2.5 bathrooms, open concept kitchen / dining room / living room, and everything you need to enjoy your vacation!

Christmas family ski vacation
Awesome location! Great access to the hill and to x country trails. Just our luck we had a severe deep freeze for our 3 days stay and the hill was closed :( so no skiing for our ski vacation). When we arrived the house was nice and clean and ready for us but we had to shovel the driveway, the front steps and the access to the hot tub...would have been nice if that had been done before our arrival.

Wonderful Ski-in Ski-out Kicking Horse Cabin
Our 7-person adult group really enjoyed our stay at this Kicking Horse cabin. The large kitchen, dining table, and living area worked perfectly for both socializing and some meeting time. The cabin had lots of dishes, glasses and cutlery so no worries for making meals. We enjoyed the private hot tub every day after a great experience skiing the mountain. The fact that the ski-out path exits literally directly across from the cabin was amazing, you could easily take breaks or have lunch without much loss of time. It was appreciated how many towels were provided for guests, including some at the back door for hot tub, plus the complementary flip flops. Only heads-up would be that the picture shows lots of firewood, but once you arrive you find out in the binder information that wood is not provided. So bring your own wood bundles if you want to use the fireplace, that was our only disappointment. I would definitely rent this cabin again, likely brining my family with kids next time!

Ski In / Ski Out Wonderful winter getaway!
We had a wonderful Xmas at Race Place. Lots of room in the house - clean and comfortable. We cooked every meal in the kitchen, including a turkey dinner -lots of room to cook and hang out while cooking! Hot tub was clean and really nice to have after a cold day skiing. It was also awesome to be able to use the fireplace. The rooms were clean and the beds comfortable. We had a bit of trouble with regulating the heat between main floor and basement. I messaged Derek and he got right back to me… once we figured out how to shut the vents in the basement we got it under control. Derek has always returned my inquiries right away - usually within the hour! The ski in / ski out for downhill/ cross country / snowshoeing was perfect - the location of Race Place is hard to beat if you like winter activities! We hope to stay again - it made for one of our best Christmases!

Good location depending...
The place is neat, very confortable and well furnished. We found out upon arriving from Europe that highway 1 was closed between Banff and Golden. What that meant for us was +1.5 hour (+3 if you count the way back) on all the day trips we had planned. Lake Louise for example no longer 1h away but 2.5 hrs. We tried to negotiate 2 days off our 9 day stay to be able to see Banff National Park but our host did not budge. So that was kind of disappointing as we did not do any of the visits we had planned in the end. We would have hoped for more empathy towards faraway travelers.
