About the host

Hosted by Marnie van der Vliet

This is the place that we call home for 8 months of the year and we would like to share what we love with you.

Why they chose this property

The Jacky Winter sits in the heart of the Alpine Village. You can ski to the lifts and Nordic Trails or just soak up the views of Strathcona Park. There is no vehicle access in the village during the winter so the kids can play freely outside in the snow while you enjoy Apres Ski with your friends and loved ones. Or just take advantage of the down time and the break from busy schedules.

What makes this property unique

The Jacky Winter is a beautiful, cozy space for young families or couples to make unforgettable memories at Mount Washington. It is not a space that can accommodate more than four adults.

There are only 2 bedrooms in The Jacky Winter, both with queen size beds, so in order to accommodate young children we have added a of bunk bed in one of the bedrooms and day bed with trundle in the hallway next to the main bedroom. There is not a lot of room in the bedroom with the bunk bed but we have set it up this way in order to accommodate young families.

There is only 1 and a half bathrooms in the unit so this is another reason why more than four adults would not work.

The Jacky Winter is in the Birdhouse which is a ski out Chalet on Jutland Terrace, you can ski from the Birdhouse and through the Village down to the Hawk Chair Lift or you can walk to the Alpine Lodge. At the end of the day you can ski most of the way back to the Birdhouse but you will need to take off the skis to walk up the last hill on Jutland Terrace - the magic at the top is worth it all!

Since we are in a walk in Village we provide a complementary one way shuttle service to deliver your bags and gear to your holiday home. You will need to tell the shuttle driver that you are staying in The Jacky Winter when your bags are ready to be taken up to the Unit.

The Jacky Winter is PET FREE: No exceptions!
