“Not fantastic, but quite adequate.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 February 2012 via mobile

We stayed in Unit E7 with our family of two adults and three adult children.

There were lots of good features about this unit but several remedial drawbacks that detracted from our experience.

The good features included reasonable proximity to the ski field and good parking, but the car was pretty essential for most things. The ski shuttle was not convenient enough during the week, and there was insufficient snow to ski home.

The three bedrooms were good sizes, but there were no single beds, and our adult kids did not want to share a bed, so one slept on a sofa all week (his choice). Although the beds were comfortable enough, the quality of the pillows and bedding was lacking, and there were no extras.

The kitchen was well-equipped with good-quality appliances and there were adequate cooking utensils, but insufficient glassware, crockery and cutlery for the number of people in the unit. There were no recycling facilities, which resulted in a lot of trips to the dumpster in the parking lot.

The washer and dryer were in another building, which was slightly inconvenient in bad weather, but at least they were free.

The TV was an older model and should be upgraded. The wi-fi was adequate, but not accessible in the main bedroom.

The unit was well-heated, with individual room controls, and there was a very effective artificial gas log fireplace.

There was a lack of cleaning supplies, including dustpan and broom, and the white ceramic cooktop on the stove was difficult to keep clean.

In all, this was a reasonably pleasant unit, but it could be improved with some minor investments. We would look elsewhere if we came back to Killington, but this was reasonable value for money.

“Nothing to write home about”

Stayed at Whiffletree with a group. The location of the unit is fantastic. Very close to everything and the shuttle pick up extremely convenient. We had a three bedroom two bath condo, not fancy but served its purpose for our group. Was nice having a unit with tv's in all rooms and a computer for our use.

“Great value - great location - great time”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 February 2011

It was very difficult to find good information about Whiffletree when I was looking for a place.
Allow me to help future travelers with some quick pointers:
Location:
-- Everything worth seeing in Killington is right on Killington road. Whiffletree is about a 5 min shuttle ride down the base lodge - and about the same distance to the Wobbly Barn and the Pickle Barrel (must sees for night life). The shuttle picks you up right outside the place for free. There's a ski home trail that leaves you about 300 ft from the resort. The bars pick you up for free at night, and a ride back home in a cab is $4 per person.
With all this in mind - there's no reason to spend 25-50% just for location. The shuttle was very convenient and if you really wanted to you could just drive the 5 mins.

Cleanliness:
I was VERY concerned about this reading other reviews - but I have to say the other reviews were off base here. My unit was tidy and functional. The rugs outside the unit are exactly what you'd expect for a ski resort with people walking on them with Ski boots, but seriously nothing to get worked up over.

Size:
We had a 3 bedroom condo in building D. The bedrooms and kitchen were more than large enough. The living room was on the smaller side (could only fit 2 people on each couch, the other 2 people would have to pull up chairs). The unit could accomodate 6 people comfortably, 8 if you squeezed a bit.

Amenities:
The fireplace is gas (a bit of a bummer as I was looking for a wood fireplace) but it gives off plenty of heat. The unit had a TV in the living room and master bedroom. Stove and oven worked fine. You're not paying for a SPA here and you're not getting one either.

Other notes about Killington:
Baja Burritto is right down the road and has ridiculous deals from 3-6. Half prices burrittos and appetizers. The Pickle Barrell night club is a great time and there was a great crowd there on a Friday night.

(thank you Kent!).They even Worked out a later check out time for us when one of us got sick and couldn't Snowboard on our last Day Sunday! (props to Carroll).Very Satisfied overall.Not a 5 star resort,but worth every penny!

“LOOK ELSEWHERE!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 January 2010

Just returned from staying at the Whiffletree Condos over MLK weekend, and I would not recommend this place. Yes, the location was great. We could ski down to the condo for lunch, then grab the bus back to the lodge after, but location is all this place has going for it. I would compare it to a cheap hotel. The beds weren't comfortable, the bed frame was broken, I didn't get one good nights sleep the three nights we were there. The biggest issue was cleanliness! Upon our arrival we discovered broken glass on the floor of one of the bedrooms, there were ping pong ball strewn about the place (beer pong I'm sure from the previous renters), gum stuck to one of the mirror frames, old toothpaste, deodorant, and bar soap in the bathrooms, cigarette butts and trash on the balcony; whoever is responsible for housecleaning should be fired! If locations is all you're concerned with, then yes, stay here, but if you're looking for an all around great weekend, look elsewhere.
