We were so pleased with our stay. Great condo in a great location. Janice was an excellent host that stayed in touch with us leading up to our visit and throughout. Will definitely stay here again!
The condo was as advertised. Well stocked kitchen with everything you need if you want to eat in. The building is dated however the condo is in great shape and the pool and hot tub were great. Really good communication with the owner. I would definitely stay here again.
The apartment is very nice and cozy. Beds were very comfortable, even the pull out mattress. Janice was great with communication and was always available.
The location is about 5 minutes drive to the resort.
Overall great experience and will go back.
Pool was fantastic. Great location. No problems with the unit. Ironwood is always a great place. We had a great time in Whistler. Owner and cleaner were very accomodating. Thank you.
Locations was wonderful. An amazing walk to the village and lake. Janice was available for any questions and kind and courteous. We would definitely stay again. Thank you Janice.
I booked this place for my husband and our 4 children. We had a fantastic ski experience. We were well looked after and even got a text from Janice to see how things were going. I really appreciated all the extras in the house. She provided toilet paper, paper towel, even soap for the dishwasher and washing machine. Also the fridge was stalked with all those little things that nobody wants to buy for just one week. The hot tub and pool were a huge hit for our family and we used it daily. Super easy to access with beautiful views of the slopes. The location is a short walk to the village. Had my kids been a few years older we would have walked in for dinners and possibly skiing. There is a shuttle stop just outside this property which is another great option. Overall - a perfect location and wonderful property with comfortable beds and all the extras. Thank you for a wonderful stay!
Everything went smoothly from the start. Janice was in contact by txt upon our arrival in Whistler and also a few times during our 12 day stay. Janice checked in with us mid stay and suggested some activities to avoid weekend crowds. A lovely welcome gift was left for us as well. The instructions regarding the supermarket and parking there and also at Creekside proved most helpful. We actually parked at lot 7 most days - ski in/ski out. The condo has plenty of storage (that was NOT filled with extra bedding) and it was lovely and warm even though heating was turned off during the day. The toiletries were handy - bringing shampoo from the other side of the world is a nuisance. It was a nice 25 min walk to gondola. Good exercise after a day skiing. Happy to recommend this place to family and friends or to visit again.
Cozy home away from home just outside Whistler Village
Overall we were quite happy with our stay here. It's apparent that the owners also use this unit from time-to-time as there are nice personal touches around. This makes it feel more like home. If I were to book my vacation again, I might have looked for something that was actually in Whistler village because we spent all of our time there, but for those who aren't spending all their time in the Village or don't mind walking the 30 minutes (or paying $10/day to park in the Village), then this is a good option.
Pros
* Well-stocked kitchen with all the basic cookware and spices you need to cook
* Comfortably sleeps a family of 4 with individual beds for the two kids
* Tall ceilings makes the unit feel bigger than it actually is
* Keyless entry -- all you have to do is remember the key codes
* In-unit laundry with detergent
* Ping pong table, pool, and hot tub in the common area (the unit had their own ping pong paddles and balls, which was a nice touch)
Cons
* Not directly in Whistler Village (it's a 30 minute walk or a 5 minute drive to Whistler park)
* It's a slightly older unit/building though the unit itself was clean
* Parking is very tight -- we had a rental Dodge Challenger and we were able to make do, but it takes patience to get in/out of the garage
Great location, 5 minutes outside Whistler Village in a quiet neighborhood. Great views of Whistler Blackcomb Mountain from the pool / hot tub. Amenities were great, quick response when communicating with the host. Would stay again.
We had a great experience staying here. The property was even nicer than it looked in the photos. It is in a great location just a 10-15 minute walk into Whistler village. Our kids loved playing in the outdoor pool.
Our family enjoyed staying in this comfortable condo. The location was quiet and relaxing, and Janice communicated with us as soon as we arrived. We were close to everything we wanted to do. The hot tub/pool were very niceâour kids loved swimming while it was snowing! We would definitely stay here again.
Great spacious, cozy, quiet condo that has everything you need. Close access to Alta lake. Away from the busy village but only a 15 min walk on a nice path to get there. Lovey heated pool and hot tub. Good secured parking. Would stay again and recommend to others.
We had everything that we needed. Pool was awesome. Would have been even better if there were umbrellas to get some shade during the heat . We also would have appreciated AC, at least a portable unit in the bedroom.
Host made lots of effort to communicate in a timely manner which was very much appreciated.
We have stayed at the ironwood on two previous occasions. Units are spacious and well laid out. This unit is well appointed for the things you need to be comfortable during your stay. A short walk to the village and located across from the village bus stop if u need a ride to the lifts. Parking is available onsite underground. We will return to the ironwood again.
Janice is a terrific owner. Shortly after we arrive, she communicated to ensure we had everything we needed. The condo is a single floor unit, nicely appointed with quality cook wear, appliances, and dishes. Everything we needed was in the suite. Underground parking was a nice extra. Great pool and hot tub area.
We have spent many wonderful holidays in Whistler, winters, springs and summers. We are a very athletic family and have enjoyed all of the following at Whistler: downhill skiing, cross-country skiing, cycling, mountain biking, swimming in the fresh water lakes, beach volleyball at Rainbow Beach, hiking with the Peak to Peak experience, canoeing, rollerblading and zip-lining. We live in Burnaby, B.C. and we especially love the proximity of Whistler.
We've spent many seasons enjoying Whistler. When we were looking to purchase a property, we were very impressed with the Ironwood. It is very well maintained, spacious and the unit is beautifully renovated. We enjoy a place that has room to move! It's a very short drive to the village or an easy bike ride on the Valley trail in the summer.
The swimming pool is large with a fabulous panoramic view. Ironwood has all the amenities, just a short drive away. So, it is close to the hussle and bussle of Whistler, but peacefully removed from it.
