ResortQuest Rentals at Stoney Creek Northstar - Whistler

“

This was a really nice find. The pool and hot tub at Northstar are a big size so you should never have to worry that it's overrun with kids. You can... also book through Resortquest or Whistler Superior properties but there's really no difference in price. The difference is check in. Because it's a condo, not a hotel, you can't always check in at the same property you're staying at. This is the case here. The front desk is run by Whistler Superior Properties. But I booked through Hotels.ca so I had to go to The Aspens in Upper Village to check in (after being sent to the Cascade first). Hotels.ca booking confirmation never said that check in was at the Aspens. The parking is free, secure and has bike storage, huge bonus in Whistler. It's all underground so make sure you look at the map at the main building first so you know what building you're in (A-F), then you have a sense of how close your assigned stall was to your suite. Mine was right below the suite, couldn't be closer. I think the layout is 1-bedrm main floor, 2-bdrm 2nd floor ( 2 stories so incl 3rd flr). Even so, my 1 bdrm was super quiet, the bldngs are all really private, but all are close to pool. Had to pay for wifi so I didn't bother. Fireplace didn't work either (maybe they shut it off for summer, but it was cool at night, so would have been nice). If you book privately you might get a BBQ, we didn't have one through the resort booking. The location across from the grocery store and right along the main bike trail was absolutely fantastic. So you are essentially right in the village, but not listening to drunk rowdies after the bars close which is a real problem in the village. The Stoney Creek Lagoons does not have a pool. Sunpath does. Cascades is down the street and another good choice because it's more hotel-like. However it could be more noisy if you book on the highway side.
