About this property

Penthouse view, elevator, steam room, hot tub, den, 2-min walk to groomed trails

Check availability using the "Rates and Availability" tab.

This chalet is set up for one family or two couples. Northern Lights is one of the more luxurious properties on the mountain.

Groomed access trails are roughly a 2-minute walk (wearing your boots and carrying your snowboard or skies and poles.)

After your day on the slopes, ride an elevator to this penthouse where the single-floor layout appeases end-of-the-day muscles. Revel at your view from 19' ceiling with floor-to-ceiling windows. Heated floors add to your comfort. Relax in the steam shower, lounge in your private hot tub, cozy up fireside with your book. WiFi, Bluetooth speakers, flat screen TVs in the great room and den. PlayStation in the den - the 'kid-favorite' space. Of course, mattresses have been upgraded and beds have duvets.

We have put in much planning to make the chalet comfortable and the same fabulous housekeeper. Come and make your family memories.

Across the street, catch the complimentary mountain shuttle to Village restaurants and pubs - or use the well organized kitchen for your special meal.

We are located in the Snowpines II residential development. Walking to/from Village Centre via the groomed, lighted pedestrian pathway takes 15-20 minutes, determined by your walking speed.

Ski-out requires a 2-minute walk to a groomed trail (access to the Snow Ghost, Ridge Rocket, and Plaza chairlifts).
Ski-in requires 2-minute walk from a groomed access trail (exit from Serwa's green run at the red and white "Snowpine Estates" sign.)

Our minimum stay is typically 3 nights. Longer stays required during holidays.

For guests with flexibility, the lowest rates are prior-to-Christmas and April.

Thank you for looking.

We recommend purchasing travel insurance. Copied from Consumer Reports: "Your credit card carrier may provide free travel insurance coverage, so check first; if not, obtain price checks from InsureMyTrip or SquareMouth."

Great Family Trip
This was the perfect place for me and my three brothers. The host is proactive with communication and the property manager checked to ensure everything was going well. It’s a short walk in and out of skiing, and the hot tub and living room were great to come home to. Everything was clean and cozy. Remember to grab gas and groceries before doing the final part of the drive.

Wonderful. Property manager was very attentive.
Beautiful property and the property manager was very attentive. The property was exactly as described, clean, and comfortable. The property owner surprised us with a box of "The Big White Tradition" which were "custard filled donut like dessert" on our second day there which was much appreciated. We would stay there again.

Spa bath with an amazing sunset view over the mountains
How wonderful to sit in a spa and watch the sun set over distant mountains after a day of skiing. Lovely comfortable 3 bedroom condo with everything we needed. Great to be able to leave ski gear downstairs in heated garage. Not quite ski in ski out but a short walk to/from the run.

Wonderful stay!
We had a wonderful time! Julie is such a thoughtful host. The property is well cared for, very well stocked with anything you need, and very tidy. The beds are comfortable too! Julie was so easy to communicate with and the property manager, Debra, is as well. Deb met us at arrival and showed us how everything works. She also very kindly let me know of an item I left behind and helped return it to me. Lastly, the building is so quiet! Great concrete construction. There appeared to be a guys trip staying below us and we didn’t hear anything from them. Julie and Deb - thanks so much! We’d love to stay here again.

Perfection
Our family of 4 had a wonderful stay at Northern Lights Unit C. There was nothing missing - the kitchen had everything (and much more!) than we needed, the hot tub was beautiful, the beds were comfy, the den with the PS2 was brilliant, the view was amazing and the ambiance was perfect. Debbie the caretaker was even kind enough to pick up an order from the grocery & liquor stores in Kelowna so it was in the unit ready to go when we got there (highly recommend doing this rather than relying on the little market on the mountain). Communication with the owners and Debbie was easy and quick. It was easily one of the best places we've stayed, in Canada or NZ.

northern lights
my family and i had the most memorable vacation at northern lights and big white.. basically all the previous reviews are 100% accurate, especially the layout, user friendly kitchen, comfy beds.. and although the chalet is not exactly board in board out, as you need to walk up a slight incline for 10 mins to get to nearest run.. the ease of the shuttle bus makes up for it, especially for those that have big family.. in fact, i would have to say the shuttle bus stop right in front of chalet is one of the chalets best attributes, as we must have taken the bus at least 2 to 3 times a day... but again, exceptional chalet in terms of cleanliness, communication, and overall experience... would highly recommend

Great After Christmas Stay & Ski
We really enjoyed out stay at Snow Pines! * The pictures do not do the unit justice. It is much nicer than they show, rooms are larger and the size of the main room does not come across. * The location is great. For those skiing being so close to the run was tremendous, but the walk to the village is a bit further (more like 20 minutes, 1 mile and uphill). * The views are tremendous. We got only one morning where we could see the sun rise and the views due to weather, but that one morning was glorious. * The kitchen is really well appointed. We did not miss anything and were happily surprised to see it stocked so well. Our only issue was the furniture in the main room. It appears to be of good quality, but the layout makes no sense... no good sightlines of the view or TV, it just is kind of placed there. We did notice the instructions not to move it, and we can understand why that comment is there. No real impact to our stay, but it was odd enough it was worth mentioning.

Wonderful Property
To start with, we had a few days of cloudy weather, and a few days of blue skies. On the nicer days, we cannot imagine a better view than from this location. The sunrises and sunsets were amazing, especially from the hot tub with a wine or beer. The kitchen was very well stocked (and thank you to those before us who left extra condiments, spices for cooking). The coffee machine is traditional, so bring a few filters (triangle-style) and ground coffee beans. They also had tea filters if you bring loose leaf tea. The unit was also well-stocked with paper products and cleaning supplies. If there is no fresh snow, the property isn't really ski-in/ ski out. But with fresh snow we could walk up to the trail or cross the street and ski down the road to a trail. Ski-in was a bit easier if there's snow on the road (easiest to ski down the road). That said, the bus stop is right across from the unit and provides excellent access to the clocktower building in the Village. Our property manager Deborah was phenomenal - she gave us tips on a bunch of things including dining and the Saturday fireworks (which we could watch from the deck). The overall layout is spacious and comfortable, with touches of elegance but also practicality (for example the TV had plenty to stream, but also local channels and there's a radio in the unit). We really enjoyed our stay and hope others will as well.

Great location! We had a fantastic vacation and this condo was a great choice. It was clean, nicely decorated and felt like a home away from home. We also met the cleaning staff upon our arrival and they were extremely friendly with lots of great suggestions about Big White. We would definitely staff there again!

Stunningly beautiful place. The big windows with breathtaking views were so peaceful. All the amenities of home with lots of space for w teens and 3 adults. The elevator was great for grandma. Not to mention the fabulous hot tub after a long day of skiing! Getting to and from the ski hill was easy and the walk into the village is well groomed and lovely.

Excellent accommodations
The condo was beautiful with plenty of room for our family of five. The view is amazing. The hosts were very accommodating and prompt in replying to enquires. We were there during March break and the COVID outbreak with the ski hill and resort closing after one day so I had limited exposure to the amenities of Big White. We would certainly return to this property in the future.

About the host

Hosted by Julie & Jim

Host profile image
Our MISSION STATEMENT: To provide luxury accommodation at reasonable rates.

Our GOAL: For our guests to make great family memories during their vacation.

Julie is an elementary school teacher. She grew up in Utah, other mountains with extraordinary snow, and is very selective about where she skis. That's one reason we are here.

Jim grew up in the Midwest and New England. Previously the commanding officer of a naval aviation squadron, operational missions have taken him from Hong Kong to Jiddah and Reykjavik to Santiago.

We currently reside near Washington, DC.

Why they chose this property

Friendly people, 'Champagne Powder' snow, and scenery. It takes many days to ski the entire mountain. The snow is drier than Vancouver and the temperatures milder than the Rockies.

This chalet combines superior location, quality, exquisite finishing, den, elevator, and nearly ski-in/ski-out.

What makes this property unique

Steam shower, private hot tub, den, slope-side location, superlative view, cozy radiant floor heating, washer/dryer, garage
