After two years of COVID, we were looking for a getaway from it all! We found it at Timbers 103.

We were greeted with a beautiful bottle of BC VQA wine and a spectacular view from the floor to ceiling front windows! A fantastic start to our vacation!
The unit was spacious, spotless and a great layout for a family or two couples.
The open concept kitchen had everything you need for a family or entertaining. All very clean and in excellent working condition. The little bar was was well stocked with bar tools and glassware.
The entertainment system provided lots of options with channels, streaming, gaming, and music. The hot tub was absolutely perfect to relax and take in the view.
Communication with Luxury Mountain Vacation Rentals and the Owner was great. Directions and instructions were concise and the guidebook detailed everything you might need to know about the unit and Big White.
This is one of the absolute best locations we have been, we highly recommend!

2020-Feb-29 : Fantastic Property in Ideal Location
This is our 4th stay at the Timbers and we love this unit! There are beautiful big windows overlooking Happy Valley and it is a perfect spot to sip your morning coffee.

It is a true ski-in/ski-out property and is just steps from the gondola, the skating rink and the tubing park. The kids loved to play ping-pong and pool in the games room. I appreciated the little things like Kleenex and lotion in the bathrooms. This is an ideal place for a family of four. We will definitely be back!

2019-Mar-03 : Unbeatable Property near Happy Valley
This was our second time staying at this property and we were not disappointed. The view from the suite was amazing and the owners were wonderful to deal with. They didn't only supply the basics, but provided extra touches like board games, condiments in the fridge, lotion in the bathrooms, etc. The property is true ski-in/ ski-out and both the Village and Happy Valle...

We had a great time. We were able to check in a few hours early which was a nice surprise. The condo had everything we needed and was clean and comfortable. We enjoyed the hot tub and games room especially. The ski in/out couldn't be better. We would definitely stay here again. Thanks so much for having us....

2018-Feb-12 : Great stay in Big White
5 of us stayed at Joyceâ??s home in early February for 4 nights. The space was perfect for us. There was a master bedroom with a large bed, second bedroom with a double and single bed plus a pullout sofa. The living room was nice and spacious with lots of natural light.

And the location was amazing! Strap in and glide down the 300 feet to the gondola which takes you to the village centre. From here you can get down to 2 of the main chairs. Great place and great mountain!
2018-Jan-03 : Perfect spot to stay.
We just love this place. We have two kids who love skating and the spot of your complex is just perfect for that. So close to the hockey rink and gondola. The Condo is nice and spacious and we like to spend our holiday here. The owners are the friendliest people to rent from. They will go above and beyond to help you have an awesome stay.

We had an absolutely delightful time at Big White staying in the Brinkerhoff family's place. When we arrived at Big White, the power was out because of a forest fire in the area. We could not get into the building so the Brinkerhoff's when well beyond the call of duty and invited us into their home in Kelowna until the power was restored which it was the next day. We...

We had a wonderful time hiking and biking in the area, wine tasting and enjoying the sun. It was a perfect summer get away. The facilities were well equipped and the view the condo was spectacular.
We will be sure to return in the future.

Read MoreWe stayed in this two bedroom condo on our recent trip to Big White. It was fabulous! The second bedroom had two beds which was ideal for my two boys. The beds were very comfortable. The large living room with beautiful bay windows provided an ideal spot to sip coffee and take in the scenery. The kitchen was well-equipped and was even stocked with a few spices, sugar, pancake mix, etc. The personal touches like homemade cherry jam and board games in the living room made this place feel extra homey. The property is true ski-in, ski-out. We skied right off the run to our door and then skied down to the base of the gondola on our way out. Being next to Happy Valley is great as it is a short walk to the tubing park and skating rink and just a quick gondola ride up to the heart of the Village. We will definitely be back!
2017-Feb-21 : February at Big White as a Family of 5
We truly enjoyed staying at this condo with its lovely view and spacious layout. We found the ski in/out location to be very easy with young children who are just learning to ski, and we also loved looking out all of the tall windows at the happy little yellow gondolas passing by. The only improvements that we could suggest would be to consider updating some of the frying pans...
Read MoreWe truly enjoyed staying at this condo with its lovely view and spacious layout. We found the ski in/out location to be very easy with young children who are just learning to ski, and we also loved looking out all of the tall windows at the happy little yellow gondolas passing by. The only improvements that we could suggest would be to consider updating some of the frying pans which were getting past the point of being “non-stick”, and the toaster which only works well on one side. But these were very very minor details. Overall we found this condo to be fabulous and would stay again in a heartbeat! Joyce was also wonderful to deal with, very responsive and prompt with communication. Thank you Joyce!

The location is perfect for a family - our children were able to ski in / out without any trouble (6 & 7 years old).

Read MoreThe location is perfect for a family – our children were able to ski in / out without any trouble (6 & 7 years old). They loved playing outside the condo and as the condo faces Happy Valley, it was easy to keep an eye on them. On bluebird days the view is breathtaking. Access to and from the gondola was an easy walk. Children loved the games room and the gym is handy if you don’t get enough time on the slopes. The condo was a great size for a family of 4 and we were very comfortable throughout our stay. Additionally when we had guests for dinner, it was no drama to accommodate the extra people. We found the condo building to be generally quiet and did not have any noise issues after hours from other guests. The hot tub was hot hot hot and we gave it a thorough workout. The guest pantry was a godsend for all the little things you need when cooking but don’t necessarily want to purchase as you only need ‘a bit’. Our hosts welcomed us with a a basket of homemade snack items and a turkey noodle soup for dinner on our first night – it was perfect and just the antidote for the slightly stressful transit from Australia. Everything we needed was in the condo – we’ll be back in the future.
2016-Dec-26 : Great location and value at Big White
We loved our week-long stay at the Timbers. The location just above the Happy Valley Lodge was so convenient and an easy walk to/from the base of the Gondola. We spent a lot of time at the Happy Valley area for ice skating, horse sleigh ride, and tubing, so the close proximity worked well for us. After time on the slopes, we could ski/board in via Happy Valley Trail or Gondo...

After time on the slopes, we could ski/board in via Happy Valley Trail or Gondola Way.
The unit itself is clean, well-maintained, well-stocked, and comfortable. The Christmas decorations were up, including a tree! Kids loved making the gingerbread house the owners thoughtfully provided for us. As a family of 4, the 2 bedrooms were perfect and the living room was big enough for all of us to relax in. And we could watch the Saturday night fireworks from the hot tub. We liked that we could see the sunrise as well as the sunset from the unit, giving us natural light during the daylight hours.
As the one who does the laundry, I liked having the washer and dryer (and supplies!) available. And my husband loved the hot tub and steam shower. The heated floors, thermostats, and fireplace made the temperatures comfortable and cozy. I honestly donâ??t think there was anything more we could have wanted, well, aside from a heated toilet seat, but who puts that in a rental unit?
All our emails to the owners were promptly returned and they were just so sweet in allowing an early check-in and making us feel like we were staying at a friendâ??s home. We canâ??t wait to go back!

Being able to walk down to the Gondola to go in to the village made the apartment very close to everything. The apartment was clean, tidy and comfortable. We really felt at home as it was so comfortable. We loved being able to come in after a day of skiing and hopping in our private hot tub and being able to watch the fireworks on a Saturday night!
The apartment is well laid out with views to the Gondola and Happy Valley, there was always something to see whilst still having your own privacy. We had an issue with the freezer during our stay and the owners were on to it straight away and very apologetic about the inconvenience. The apartment is well stocked with the more than the basics that you need for cooking etc, the bathrooms had a great supply of shampoo, conditioner, soaps and body moisturisers, something I wasn’t expecting. 🙂
We have stayed in a few different places in Big White and we wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again. Thank You Brinkerhoff Family for providing a wonderful place to stay, your hospitality and the great chocolate chips cookies as we left!
2016-Apr-22 : The Timbers
Such a fantastic experience, the location was the best on the mountain, right beside the gondola, Snow right outside the door.
The owners were very accommodating, even left the Christmas tree up for the new year, the condo was exceptional. Hot tub was very inviting after a day of skiing.
Will be back again one day soon from Australia :)...

It’s just as well that the place is so comfortable, it was foggy every single day we were there with soggy snow, almost not worth going out at times
