About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire condo to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Home away from Home! Bright, updated Pet Friendly corner unit.

Enjoy Whistler all year round in this welcoming, bright, cozy corner unit. Modern decor & open concept design while maintaining rustic Whistler charm. Relax and make yourself at home. Park your car in the secured underground parking and forget it. Condo is ideally located within walking distance of all that Whistler Village has to offer. Steps away from Marketplace Plaza where you will find Fresh St Market/liquor store/ pharmacy/ Mac's/Tim Horton's etc. Short stroll to Olympic Plaza which hosts outdoor skating rink/tobogganing hill in winter and a variety of concerts and events in the summer. Easy 10 minute walk to ski lifts, or catch the free shuttle directly across the street from the condo. Relax after a great day of skiing with a beverage in the outdoor hot tub, or take a refreshing dip in the large heated pool. Summer or winter - Whistler has it!

Great unit, great location
This is a lovely unit. Good use of space, cozy living room, lots of natural light. Decently sized bedrooms. Kitchen is very well equipped. Heated floor in the master bath is wonderful! Very convenient location: a 2 minute walk (if that) to the grocery store, 3 minutes to the bus that takes you directly to the gondolas, just steps away from the lively Whistler village.

Awesome accommodation in Whistler
As a family with small kids, this is our favourite location that we have stayed at in Whistler. It's so close to our favourite food spots (Hunter Gather and also Mt Currie Coffee), to the playground, and to our favourite shops. We enjoyed the spaciousness of Penny's suite. Being nestled in the woods with the large living room windows is just lovely, especially with the ambiance of the fireplace. The kitchen was well stocked and we enjoyed using the hotel grade waffle maker. I'd say if you are sensitive to scents, bring your own soap products. Also while the water is safe and good to drink, we just found it had a taste to it so you might want to bring bottled water. Unfortunately the hottub was closed while we were there, my husband and daughter had a great time in the pool. We would love to stay here again!

Conveniently located and pet friendly home away from home
The property is just across the street from Whistler village. We didn't have to drive at all during the entirety of our three-night stay. The house was nicely furnished. The upkeep was clean and tidy. The kitchen was well-stocked: in addition to a toaster and a Keurig machine, there was even a waffle maker and a rice cooker. There was a good selection of pots and cooking utensils for us to use. We initially had a small miscommunication on the door passcode. I received a total of three distinct passcodes from Vrbo messages prior to arrival. Fortunately, the situation was quickly sorted out. We would totally stay at this property again the next time we visit Whistler!

Fantastic - Bonus for dog families
Just great! Condo is spacious for Whistler standards. A usable entry for your ski boots and jackets. Some condos totally lack this. Kitchen remodeled and has all of the basics to cook at home. Living room sofa can hold 6+ people for seating plus 2 chairs. Great cozy gas fireplace. Patio to store your skis on to get them out of foyer. King master, bed comfy. Double bunks great for kids. Plus pullout sofa if you need. Loved 2 bathrooms. Location can’t be beat. Shuttle 2 stops away from mtn drop off. Very dog friendly which was huge for us to be able to bring. Great area to walk the dogs. Very clean. No fur in sight and no allergy issues. Totally enjoyed. A little traffic noise from the sea to sky behind since windows aren’t the best. Parking fantastic. Tons of guest spots at our time there. We had 2 cars. You can’t get a SUV in with a box on top so note the height. Most condos in Whistler have this problem. Loved this condo. Owner was great at communicating quickly.

Great family condo in Whistler Village - close to ski hills
The Condo was perfect for our needs - 4 single beds (2 bunk beds) and one king upstairs and the main floor a lovely living room space, kitchen and table. Nicely designed and well equipped, it was very clean and comfortable for our stay. It's right in the village (but not the busy part with the pedestrian streets) - it's just at the edge on one of the main streets. you can walk to everything including the ski hills. But the best part was a free shuttle bus is right out front of the condo entrance that runs very regularly and takes you to whistler gondola. Super convenient as I was worried about walking too far with our ski equipment. The owners were super responsive when I had a question and very friendly. Thanks for having us!

The Most Dog Friendly Lodging Ever!
We had a wonderful experience staying here with a group of friends plus our 8 month old Samoyed puppy. The host provided dog food and water bowls and splash tray, a variety of dog treats, a dog bed and blanket and jacket, and a variety of tennis and rubber balls to play with. Walking around the complex we saw lots of other dogs and the Valley Trail / Fitzsimmons Creek is a nice dog friendly area to explore. This was our puppy’s first international trip and we loved our stay at Northstar. The host was communicative and accommodating with all our travel needs. The balcony is spacious and we used the grill. the unit is surrounded by trees and it was snowing the majority of the time we visited, a winter wonderland. The condo is right across the street from the free shuttle that comes regularly and takes you straight to the ski lifts and gondolas. Otherwise everything in the village is a 10-15 min walk. Also right across the street is the market, liquor store, and a great Indian food restaurant. The hot tub and pool is only a couple min walk from the unit. Would highly recommend this booking!!

Great Stay, Great Location!
Very comfortable, clean condo. Excellent location, right across the street from the free ski shuttle and the grocery store. Appreciated 2 bathrooms -both with showers, and probably the best-stocked kitchen of any condo we've ever stayed at in Whistler (cookware, appliances, tools, bakeware, dishware - as good as we have at home), and large dining table. Hot tub was great after skiing - we didn't try the pool though. King bed was very comfortable. Only issue for some people might be the stairs - you need to carry skis and baggage etc up stairs, there's no elevator. Not a problem for us, but a family with small kids and lots of stuff will need quite a few trips to carry everything up into the condo.

Just book this one.
Penny’s place was fantastic, far better than it looks in the pictures and wonderful in every way. The living room/dining/kitchen area has great floor to ceiling windows overlooking the snow-covered woods, great light, a wonderful space to hang out. We had booked another place in the same compound for our first few nights, and while that one was nice, we wished we’d just booked Penny’s place for ther whole time!

Modern well-appointed condo in prime location
We have stayed in many Northstar units over the years because it's a perfect location, summer or winter, with a fabulous pool and communal hot tub. Penny's unit is beautifully furnished with all the comforts you need. The beds are fabulous (my back is missing the luxurious king bed!), the kitchen well stocked, and the unit has a great layout with bedrooms upstairs and communal living area downstairs. There is a bit of traffic noise as the unit backs onto the highway, but it didn't bother us and the unit has many fans in the closets so you could plug one in for some background white noise if you are a sensitive sleeper.
