About this property

Family friendly 2 bedroom + 1 bath (sleeps 5) townhouse at Kicking Horse Mtn

Our home away from home is a 2 bedroom, 1 bath townhouse condo at Kicking Horse Mountain, Golden. You are only steps away from ski out and ski in, in a community nestled into this amazing ski resort, with valley and ski hill views. Our home features a fully equipped kitchen, bathroom with a tub, regularly serviced hot tub on the deck and two cozy bedrooms. Bedroom one has a queen sized bed while the second bedroom features a bunk bed (single over full, please note that the max. weight limit for the top bunk is 175 lb).

There is covered parking in the garage (for one vehicle) and a ski/board rack to lock up your skis and/or snowboards in the garage.

In summer you are close to a lot of mountain biking trails of varying difficulty levels (including the downhill trails at Kicking Horse mountain resort) and hiking trails, rivers, Cedar lakes and about a 13km drive down to the town of Golden.
We have a bbq on the deck (all year round) along with table and seating for meals and lounge furniture on the deck (in summer).

Winter boasts world class downhill skiing and easy access to side country touring. The Dawn Nordic centre is a 5 min drive away where you can enjoy well maintained cross country skiing trails as well as snow shoeing trails.

We welcome families and couples. No animals please and sorry (due to allergies).

Since we are a 'weekend warrior' family we leave some of our private belonging such as clothing (in the second bedroom primarily) and some food in cupboards and the fridge. We make sure the closet and drawers are empty in the queen bedroom and that there is plenty of space in kitchen cupboards, fridge and freezer for our guests. However, if you are considering booking and this is a problem, please let us know!

Winter Break in Kicking Horse

The property was great. It was clean, cozy and well equipped. Great location - could walk easily to the base of the hill/village. Kids could also easily access the ski-in route so they didn't have to walk or carry their gear to the hill. Would try to rent the same place again if we return.

Family Vacation to Golden

The unit was clean, kitchen was well stocked, the furnishings were comfortable, and we definitely enjoyed using the hot tub and brand new grill on the deck. As for the area, while KHMR was beautiful and had things to do onsite, the drive into town was just long enough to be inconvenient and required a little planning and commitment. Maybe that is the point and I am sure the resort is an ideal location during the skiing season with no need to leave during such a stay. We did venture into town for dinner and groceries, whitewater rafted with Hydra few miles out of town, hiked to the Wapta Falls (again a few miles out of town) and took some other trips with this place as our base of operations. The owners were very responsive before and even during our stay when when an issue came up that needed attention, despite them traveling themselves. We enjoyed our french press coffee in the morning, but do advocate for a coffee maker that can support another 4 adult group staying at the house. All in all it was a great stay and we appreciate the McFayden's sharing their home with us.

Good times at Aspens

Our return trip, after 5 years, to Kicking Horse. More snow on the mountain would have been nice but we enjoyed the skiing and found the chalet very comfortable and conveniently located.

Great place, big hot tub!

Loved the location on the ski hill and near the Kicking Horse base. Great big hot tub. Wifi worked well. Kitchen was stocked with helpful tools and pans. Beds were comfortable. The thermostats in the bedrooms were a bit off (made it 85F when set to 70F) but that was easily fixed. The underground parking was nice to keep the car out of the snow and the cold. Would definitely stay again.

Great spot

Family of four with two significant teenage kids LOVED the condo; perfect spot for family time; great kitchen; well stocked for the chef to cook anything ; even had basic condiments and spices/herbs to use; short walk to ski down to get ski passes and very short drive to cross country ski - though snow wasn’t great while we were there (true spring conditions), we enjoyed our stay; very comfy couch with great views in all directions to read books in the “off snow times” - hot tub eased sore muscles at the end of each day - you want to stay here!!!!

Relaxing family time

Very clean and comfortable stay. Location and views excellent. The family enjoyed many soaks in the private hot tub and lunch at the resort . We also enjoyed many hours at the dock At cedar lake, 10 min drive away. Bring your paddle board or floaties and kids will be entertained for hours. Great day use area for a hot dog roast.

Long weekend getaway

A last minute find for a much needed family getaway. With all the covid stuff happening, we truly got lucky finding this cute little home for our family and friends to stay at. Home was cozy with all that was needed, quite location with beautiful scenery. Was nice having the ground unit and large patio with our babies. Weather was extremely hot but with the fans we brought we managed the house temperature. The hot tub at the end of each night was truly a blessing. Very short walk to the ski hill for delicious breakfast and coffee. Thank you for the wonderful stay!

Everything one wished for!

Stayed at this property for our 20th wedding anniversary, and it was perfect! We wanted somewhere to spend some romantic time yet close enough to town to explore during the day. The property owner bent over backwards to make sure everything was perfect. Highly recommended!

Perfect family getaway

This was a fantastic spot to park our family for a week in Golden. We walked to the resort for some play time most days, and made easy trips to so many local spots, from Cedar Lake to downtown and the farmers market. This house was wonderfully set up for little kids, and there was plenty of space for our family of 5. We had everything we needed. Mia and Jim were great hosts - responding immediately when we called with a quick questions. We would come back here in a heartbeat!

Perfect mountain condo, 2 mnutes from the kicking horse resort

We very much enjoyed our stay at Mia's place. The building is very nice, the condo was spotless, the view was superb, and the area super quiet. The condo is tastefully decorated and stocked with quality cookware, plates and utensils. There is a mtb trail just a few steps from the condo, and we enjoyed the spa after our ride. Mia was very quick to reply whenever we contacted her. This was the perfect place for our stay in Golden. 5 stars!

Comfortable and Relaxing Retreat

We were looking to stay somewhere that we could easily drive into Banff and Lake Louise, without the touristy chaos of those areas. This townhouse was a perfect fit for our family of five. It is six miles up a mountain, in a ski resort. It is very close to the lifts, which is brilliant for the winter months. The townhouse is up one flight of stairs, so there was minimal stair climbing. Everything in the home is warm and welcoming, from the art to the layout. We utilized the outdoor grill, the patio and the jacuzzi every evening. The appliances (including washer/dryer) were user friendly. The cookware was high end and was a dream to cook with. The location was approximately an hour to Lake Louise / Moraine Lake, and an hour and half to Banff. The drive is probably the most stunning drive I have ever been on. There are multiple places to pull off for a picnic / hike / retreat from the busyness of summer crowds in Banff. The owner was responsive and instructions were clear and easy to follow. There was a deposit held at time of booking, in case of any damage to property, and it was refunded promptly after our stay. All in all, I would highly recommend this place, and would love to stay there again, but longer than we stayed!

About the host

Hosted by Mia McFadyen

Host profile image
We are a Canadian-Swedish family of 4 who love to ski, mountain bike, travel and adventure together. We have been spending our winter weekends and most other available weekends year round in Golden since 2012.

We finally bought our 'home away from home' here, our Happy Place, in the fall of 2018.

Why they chose this property

This area is really hard to beat when it comes to skiing, if you are a hard core ski lover! Before having children we would travel wherever the snow fell. We got to know many mountains in interior BC and Kicking Horse was one of the few where we could see ourselves go all the time once we had a family and those spontaneous, one day (sometimes long) trips, became more difficult. This hill offers so much exciting terrain and ability to do a lot of fun activities and sports. To us it offers the life style we were looking for.

And of course, at any time of the year, these mountains and the valley offer simply amazing views and the spectacular terrain for adventures.

In the summer there are multiple levels of mountain biking trails around, easily accessible from this property.

For any outdoor enthusiast this is simply an amazing place to be!

What makes this property unique

Large outdoor deck. Private hot tub. Quiet setting. Easy access to skiing, mountain biking etc. Neighborly area. Amazing views.
