About this property

Whitetail Lodge! 6 Bed, 3 bath Ski In @ Apex Mountain with Sauna. ⛷🎿

Enjoy the Champagne powder and views of the ski hills from this one of a kind Chalet. This SKI IN & almost SKI OUT home will be the ultimate cabin experience. The Chalet has just gone through an extensive renovation with new furniture. 6 bed 3 bath that sits on a half acre lot which provides tons of privacy on a no through road called Whitetail Road. Home Sleeps 15 with pull out couch..Beat the heat and drive 30 min to Penticton or Oliver in the summer to the wineries or Lake. This booking will have you coming back for years.

The lodge is just a short 2 minute walk to the stray horse trail which takes you to the village or lifts. Apex has some of the most vertical runs in in B.C., making it a lovers paradise for the extreme skier. It is also set up for the beginner as it has one of the best green runs called the Grandfather Trail. The Okanagan has some of the lightest snow to ski in and is referred to as Champagne Powder. If you want to beat the heat in the summer, Apex is awesome in the summer with Nickel Plate lake just a 10 minute drive down the street where it's loaded with Rainbow trout and other species. Apex Mountain is also known for the mountain biking trails and hiking trails all outside your doorstep.

Please not that the entire house is for rent if you have more than 10 guests. If there are only 9 people staying than downstairs with two bedrooms will be locked off. Downstairs also has Crate Barrel Sofa bed that folds into a Queen bed. Very Comfy

Feel free to message me questions.

Beautiful house! Beware of noise from tenant and the walk to ski-out
Overall the trip to Apex was great! And for a group of all younger adults this is a beautiful and affordable option. However, there is tenant suite attached (separate entrance). This information was not listed at the time of our booking (I believe this has since been updated). Quite a lot of noise transfers between the the tenant suite and this unit including tv noise. This was especially problematic as the tenant was up quite early (~530 - 630 am) during the week to commute to Keremeos. It disrupted my mother's sleep multiple mornings who was in a downstairs bedroom. Additionally, the access to the ski-in ski-out trail is a substantial and steep walk. This was not a problem for the 30 year old's, but the 60 year old's with us decided to drive to the hill each morning. For a group made of entirely 30 year old's ready to get up for first chair and then relax with a glass of wine in the beautiful main room, this place is great! For our mixed crowd, it was less ideal.

Great for a group of 6
We had 6 adults in our group which I think would be the maximum for your stay as there’s only one bathroom with a shower. We didn’t have a problem with this as we weren’t in a hurry to go anywhere each day. It was a bit tight for time on the last day having to be out by 10am 😂 The cabin was lovely and clean and comfortable. We could’ve done with one more “comfy” seat in the living room so we could all sit to watch a movie. Overall we really enjoyed our short stay there.

perfect family cabin with *wildlife*
Everything about our stay at the cabin was great. Our host took the time to email us before our stay with a detailed guideline on what to expect in the cabin (how things work- for example the wood stove) and many other helpful tips, including the tenant info. It wasn't mentioned in the ad but I don't feel it was needed as there was no issue at all and absolutely more than enough space ! The space was very clean with lots of extras- towels, bedding, all the kitchen supplies you need... even down to the laundry soap which i didn't expect. Kids enjoyed all the extra toys, board games and fooseball table.. and i enjoyed the soaker tub ! Although it was an extremely hot 35+ degrees during our stay, it was cooler on the mountain and the ceiling fan kept it cool. The drive to Penticton was as described only 30 minutes down the mountain. Just be aware that it is a bit of a tedious drive with lots of sharp turns, we didn't arrive until after dark and i felt like it was straight out of a horror movie driving up ! *NOTE.. drive up in daylight LOL and pull off to let traffic pass :) ** lots of wildlife sightings on the drive as well, deer, coyotes and a mama bear and her cubs :) I would definitely recommend the Whitetail Lodge and cant wait to book again in the future.

Great Vacation Home
We had a great time staying in this place. Just be aware that the listing is not very accurately described. You are not renting the entire house. There’s a tenant living downstairs. Although we had no trouble sharing the house with the tenant, I felt a bit nervous before arriving. There are only 1.5 bathrooms. For our group with 6 people, it’s okay.

Our family trip to Apex was fun and memorable! The house was clean, cozy and functional and only a few minutes' drive to/from the Village with a ski in and out a short walk away. Jay was an efficient and helpful host. We hope to return!!!
