* 1 Blacksmith Lodge is a Private house with NO common areas
* There will be a thorough clean/disinfect between guests

#1 Blacksmith Lodge is a very comfortable and luxurious (2200 square foot) end unit with stunning views over the Monashee Mountains. It has won awards for Best Development, Best Layout and Best Interior Finishing.

It has features such as hot water radiant heated floors, large private outdoor hot-tub with massaging jets (very nice after a long day skiing), a fully-equipped luxury kitchen and a great room with gas fire.

All beds have comfortable fluffy duvets. There are two Master bedrooms with King-size beds and en-suite bathrooms (one has a jetted tub plus shower, the other a rain shower/steam cabinet). The third bedroom has a comfortable pull-out queen sofa bed and the fourth bedroom has a single/twin bunkbed. These bedrooms share a bathroom with bath/shower.

Location, location, location!
The lodge has easy access to three main lifts (ski run goes right past back door!) and located only a few minutes from both the Village centre and Happy Valley. For mountain bikers, we are very close to the Plaza Climb trail and Beginner skills area and an easy cycle on to the Bullet lift.
Blacksmith Lodge is one of a small number of properties on the mountain with its own private, integral, heated garage with internal door to the house. Perfect for storing your ski gear or mountain bikes securely.

To keep up with your e-mails, we have provided free high-speed wireless internet access for our guests. Access to the lodge is via a Keypad code, which will be sent to you shortly prior to your arrival.

Big White ski resort is Canada’s largest ski-in/ski-out resort with an average snowfall of 25 feet of 'champagne powder' snow. It has 118 designated trails, 27 unnamed trails, and lots of off piste skiing in the powder bowls and tree glades; 18% of the runs are beginner, 56% intermediate, and 26% expert.

Bike Big White was built for riders by riders and features some of North America's newest, and best lift access mountain biking. Featuring 19 world class gravity fed trails that range from rolling greens, bermed blues, and big air blacks, Bike Big White has something for every level of rider. The Bike School and full rental program are open all summer to ensure that your skills are sharp and you’re fully protected while out on the trails.

We've been visiting Big White for many years and we still love the place. Not only for the great snow and varied terrain, but also because of the friendly atmosphere and last but not least: no long lift queues :-)

We've put a lot of thought in making the lodge as comfortable as possible, to ensure our guests will have a wonderful, fun and worry free holiday.

Please e-mail us if you need any further information about Blacksmith Lodge or Big White ski resort. We look forward to hearing from you soon!

True ski in ski out
My friends and stayed in Blacksmith Lodge 1# for a week and found it to be an excellent ski in /out location. The condo was comfortable and well equipped and we have no hesitation in recommending it to fellow travellers.

Great spot for family ski vacation
We had a great stay in Big White for spring break. The condo was perfect for ski in/ski out and enough space for our two families. Owner was quick to respond and we felt very much at home. Hot tub was perfect after a full day on the slopes. Had amazing views of the Fireworks show on Saturday night. We will definitely be back

Would stay here again!
The owner was friendly and responsive. The property is excellent for two to three couples. The ski-in- ski-out is excellent. The walk to the village is easy enough if you're fit. If you're less fit, you will be fitter by the end of your trip. We would definitely stay here again.
Stayed 20 nights in Jan 2023

About the host

Hosted by Nick Trowsdale

Host profile image
We first visited Big White in 2000 and immediately fell in love with it. We've skied and boarded many resorts in France, Austria, Italy, USA and Canada. Big White certainly isn't the biggest resort, but it's definitely the most fun.
Since having kids, it's even more fun coming here and there's no doubt about its claim to be in the top 5 kids' centers in the world.
We live in Europe, our kids both love travelling and they're already better skiers and snowboarders than us!

Why they chose this property

Location, Location, Location!

Ski-in and ski-out doesn't get much better than this. Just a step outside the back door, and it's an easy run down to the main lifts, or a short cycle to the Bullet or PLaza CLimb bike trail.
An easy 10 minute walk to either the Main Village Center or Happy Valley.
Beautiful views of the Mountains....

What makes this property unique

Looking out the window at a foot of fresh powder and knowing we can be on the lift before most people have finished breakfast....

Sitting in the hot tub with a cold beer, watching the last of the skiers making their way down to Happy Valley....
