About the home This traditional Whistler split-level townhome offers all you need to maximize your getaway in the mountains. The home backs onto pine trees giving a secluded cabin feel but the front door is just steps from the pedestrian walking path providing quick access to the ski slopes, Lost Lake park trails, and Whistler Village. The home offers great separation for families and features a small garage and bonus playroom where the kids have their own separate zone on the bottom level. Walk upstairs to find the main living space with a fully equipped kitchen and cozy fireplace as well as a bathroom with a walk-in shower. On the top floor, you will find the master bedroom as well as the bunk room and the second bathroom with a tub shower combo. You will enjoy the convenience of the private garage for securely storing mountain bikes/ski equipment - no snow shovelling required! Added conveniences include heated floors in the kitchen and bathrooms.
Please reference the floor plan photo at the end of the listing photos for a better understanding of the home layout.
Location Located at the base of Blackcomb Mountain, and only a short walk or free shuttle ride from the lifts and the Village, the Forest Trails is a hidden gem.

This is our second stay at this property. Some plumbing and electrical issues, but a good place.
Check-in was easy. Kitchen is well stocked. WiFi had outages every 2-3 days (a bit annoying when working remotely or wanting to watch TV). The lights failed in the downstairs bathroom and it took 4 or 5 days to get an electrician (July 1st weekend). Also, the hot water booster downstairs had a failure and resulted in a small flood that we had to manage and clean up. That was a bit stressful! Fortunately for the property owner we were there when it happened and shut off the water source to the hot water tank within 15 min, then mopped it all up. This likely avoided thousands in water damage. The property manager could have been a bit more communicative on the plumberâs schedule as we wanted reassurance that weâd have hot water restored. In the end it was taken care of within 24 hrs, but initially we werenât sure if we needed to be onsite, so we waited all morning for him to arrive, then were later told we didnât need to wait. Better communication around this would have been ideal. This is our second time staying a month here. It meets our needs with bikes in the garage, and access to Blackcomb trails and Whistler lifts.
This property was very clean, cozy but spacious and comfortable. It had everything we needed and enough supplies to last us our entire 1 week stay. The pictures don't it justice and I would suggest updating the living room pictures as the furniture has been updated and should be displayed in the gallery. The location was just steps to the shuttle bus (5) but also a short walk into the village/Blackcomb Gondola. The property manager was great to communicate with and were very responsive. I highly recommend this property and would definitely choose to stay here again.
We stayed for several weeks in June 2024, and this became our home away from home for our little family (with our baby)! Very flexible and communicative hosts, and we appreciated feeling so comfortable in this space!
The location of this place is fantastic. Being right on the trail we were able to walk and bike to blackcomb and whistler village. The house was cozy and was well stocked.
Nice place. relatively short walk to Blackcomb Gondola. I was there for a meeting at the fairmont Chateau hotel so didn't take advantage of all the amenities as much as I would have had I been there for vacation (it is also a short walk to the hotel). I would definitely recommend it.
Easy check in and check out. Great location steps from bus. Home was exactly as described, clean and well maintained and stocked with plenty of cookware, silverware and dishes. Nice garage to keep wet skis. Thanks and see you again!
Overall great experience here. 11 minute walk to the main Blackcomb lift, house was clean, plenty of closet space, and storage for ski equipment in the garage. Had two minor issues pop up that did not interfere with our stay and the team was super responsive,
!
Everything was great. Excellent location, everything was clean, good neighborhood. The only problem was that the AC was lost for two days, but the host's response was good and fixed.
The place is better than described in the pictures and very comfortable for four people. Very well cleaned. My only complaint is that they should warn you that you might run out of hot water if you take a bath. There is not enough hot water to run a bath and then shower.
we really enjoyed staying here for our week in whistler. the garage was great for storing paddle boards and bikes without any worry of theft. kitchen was great with lots of items. tons of lines and great bathrooms. place was very nice and accommodating. nice welcoming basket upon arrival. only thing I would recommend when its hot is to bring a portable a/c machine as upstairs gets really warm when it was 30 degrees plus outside. the supplied fans did help a bit. thanks for your hospitality.
