This place is a great size for multiple families and we enjoyed the stay. The driveway is on a 45 degree angle which made it difficult to get in and out of vehicles with little ones in the slushy snow. It has beautiful views and was a quick drive to the ski hill.
This chalet is great for a magical family stay. Lots of bedrooms, lots of bathrooms and a great room with a gorgeous view. Property manager ironed out the wrinkles and we had a fabulous stay. If you are a large family I highly recommend this property.

This property was perfect for our family vacation! We had 10 people and there was more than enough room. Everyone was very comfortable ! The kitchen had everything we needed and the bbq came in handy too. Location was so peaceful and relaxing. Highly recommend to any large group!
The house was a perfect fit for our family reunion. The Strathcona Provincial Park provided wonderful hiking trails and swimming in the beautiful lakes. We also enjoyed salmon fishing and kayaking in Courtenay.
The house was perfect for our family gathering of nine. Good sleeping spaces and lots of bathrooms. We made full use of the very well stocked kitchen, large barbecue (with very good barbecue tools). Nice living room space with fireplace for gathering and board games. Also family room upstairs used by teens occasionally wanting their own space. This house suited us to a tee!
The chalet was beautiful. Very well used. Some things needed fixing up but nothing too bad. Our check in wasnt as smooth as youd hope. When we got there the key pad on the door was dead so we couldnt get in. I had messaged the host and unfortunately we both had awful service so we had to go back into town and wait for their reply. When i got a hold of the host they were able to assist me with the check in via a different route. The location was perfect for everything we wanted to see in the area and others. Other than that, the place was beautiful and I'd definitely stay there again and 10/10 would recommend.
Chalet was as advertised with a well stocked kitchen, lovely views, comfortable beds, 2 enormous tvs. Our only issue was with the driveway. The pictures online show a perfectly cleared driveway however this was not the case when we arrived. A bobcat came by and removed most of the snow but we were left with a sheet of ice. No salt or sand in the garage. Was kind

The location and the floor plan layout and finishes of this chalet is beautiful.
The condition of the home when we checked in: Food on the Living room floor wasn’t swept. Dirty dishes and utensils, baking sheet covered with oil. Dryer with massive load of smelly towels that we later found out the dryer doesn’t work properly. Garbage from previous guest was left sitting by the washing machine.
I emailed the host but they didn’t respond. It’s a shame to see a great property being mismanaged.

bad driveway
We were up with all our kids (25/-) , so the place had lots off room which was nice, however the heaters in the living room weren't working and the place has insufficient heat as a whole. bedrooms were fine, but the main salon was cold. the fireplace was on the whole time and we still couldn't get it warm, it was a crappy electric one. It was cold and it snowedWe immediately needed to manage the driveway. The welcome book says the driveway is heated, it it NOT. We were actually worried about sliding down the driveway in vehicles and hitting the opposite barrier. Several people fell on the driveway. We immediately ran out of the small amount of salt provided and got more from a neighbour... and managed to get our vehicles sorted. What a nightmare, I have a F150 4-wheel drive, and it was unable to operate on the driveway, its very steep. Both snow shovels were broken.The garages were filthy and stuffed with crap from the owner I assume. The kitchen and space were large and lots of space, but the kitchen is under equipped. in Mount Washington there is nothing, so we had no tin foil or plastic wrap for cooking, and the microwave has days before its doesn't work, the LCD screen is broken, so you have no idea what you are doing with it.... This is great place for bunch of teenagers to drink the weekend away, but I would not stay here again. More of a frat house, that you can't get into if it's snowing. There is no ski in / ski out... so you need the vehicle for everything.
Beautiful place with lots of room for family and friends. A fully stocked kitchen and great room layouts. The sauna is a wonderful addition. Would definitely recommend. Next time we will be booking a longer stay.
Wonderful stay! The place was very convenient, with plenty of bathrooms and showers to accommodate everyone. The host was incredibly friendly and accommodating.

We were seven senior golfers staying at the chalet and it suited us to a “tee”….with all the bedrooms, bathrooms and family areas, along with a fully stocked kitchen, we couldn’t have picked a better place. I highly recommend staying at Sari’s chalet Larry
The property was very well maintained with amenities more than we expected. Staying at such a beautiful, well maintained house became one one of our highlights of the trip. It made it special
