Overview
This condominium building is located in the Whistler Village and is a 2-minute walk from the Whistler gondola which provides access to both Whistler and Blackcomb trails. This property is well-suited for guests who are looking for apartment-style accommodations within walking distance of ski lifts.

This property is 100% smoke-free and all units include free Wi-Fi, free local calls, a flat screen TV with a DVD player, a full kitchen (including cookware and a dishwasher), individual climate control, a jetted tub, a hair dryer, a washer and dryer and a separate living room. These are private condominium units so bedroom configurations may vary, however there are one and two-bedroom units available that accommodate four to six people.

Free underground parking is available on site and pets are not permitted. There is no on-site restaurant.

Other on-site amenities include a hot tub, an outdoor pool and ski storage. Condominium rentals for this building are handled off-site at the Trading Places offices at Whistler Creekside (about 6 minutes away by car).

There are many restaurants, night clubs and boutique shops located within a 5-minute walk of this property. The Whistler Village Art Gallery is 1 minute away on foot, while the Whistler Conference Centre is a 4-minute walk away. The Whistler Museum and the Whistler Olympic Plaza (both located north Village Gate Boulevard) are about an 8-minute walk away. The Whistler Golf Course and driving range is 7 minutes away on foot, while access to the Sea-to-Sky Highway (west to Vancouver) is 1 minute away by car.
