We really loved this property. From what we saw there are many beautiful properties in BC. Some are ski in and some are ski out, but it seemed that very few were both. Highlands Slopeside is both, which was exactly what we wanted.
Our unit spanned the width of the building so we had both courtyard views and views of the slopes. One night we were even treated to a view of the fireworks right from our sofa. The unit had everything we needed and was beautifully appointed (a subzero fridge/ two large jetted bath tubs, woodburning fireplace). The ski access was so convienent, that we often returned to the condo for lunch. The kitchen was set up nicely and we ate dinner in several nights.
The property has a wonderful ski room, with lockers for skis, a huge air pumped boot drying rack and direct access to the slopes. It also shares a heated outdoor pool and several outdoor hot tubs with the nearby Highlands Lodge (you have to walk about 100 feet to get there, so wear your arctic boots and change in the nicely appointed Highlands Lodge locker room).
Almost all properties in BC offer shuttle service around the resort and are beautifully maintained. So work with the BC reservationist to pick a property based on what's most important to you.
We got exactly what we requested.
