Coast/Beach
Lost Lake Beach - 15 min walk. Rainbow Park Beach - 25 min walk. Both areas have sandy beaches/lawns, a jetty, swimming platform and clear waters. But remember, the lakes are glacier fed and best enjoyed on a hot, hot day.
Golf
Whistler and the surrounding area is home to 3 Championship Golf Courses - Chateau Whistler Golf Course, Whistler Golf Course and Nicholas North Golf Course. With a fascinating blend of sprawling fairways, forested borders of ancient cedar & fir, lakes, creeks, waterfalls & wildlife, these 3 courses are favourites amongst the locals and a "must play" on your Whistler golf vacation. All courses offer full service Pro-shop facilities, learning centre, restaurant and much more. And if your game is a little off ... just enjoy the envigorating fresh air and spectacular mountain scenery. There is also a driving range approx 5 mins walk from this property so you can practise your swing before hitting the course. Other excellent courses are nearby at Pemberton - Big Sky Golf & Country Club - and between Vancouver and Whistler at Furry Creek Golf & Cournty Club.

Whistler/Blackcomb Ski Resort - rated #1 in North America - is an easy 10 min walk from Northstar. Providing over 8000 acres of terrain, 200+ trails (with most groomed daily), a 5280' vertical drop (the highest in North America), 38 lifts and 33' average snowfall, numerous terrain parks and half-pipes, and home to the 2010 Winter Olympics! Experience the Olympic Downhill runs and earn yourself a gold medal. But don't be intimidated - Whistler/Blackcomb has skiing and boarding at all levels, short lift lines and just 1 ticket covers both mountains! Improve your ability at the great Whistler Ski School with adult, teen, adaptive and children's programs. (Kids love the enchanted forest and magical castle and their happy friendly instructors). For Nordic/cross-country enthusiasts, Whistler provides miles of trails in the village area (some lit for night skiing) and at the newly opened Olympic Nordic Centre - so why not try out the trails of future Olympic champions?

What a wonderful place to stay – we have so enjoyed our stay here. It was great to meet Mike – and we would love to come again. The condo is superbly equipped and so comfy – certainly the best holiday home we have ever stayed in. All good wishes to Anne and Mike and we look forward to seeing them again in the future. Thank you both again.— Denise, Tim, Matthew H. Cirencester, UK.
The apartment was everything we had hoped for – well equipped, comfortable and ideal position of skiing holiday. Always felt help was at hand if required but also appreciated being left to enjoy our holiday. Would love to come back one day with the family. Thank you so much for everything.— Gilly and Geoff M. Cornwall, UK.
Owner profile
"Hi" from Mike & Anne Murphy
About the owner
Allow us introduce ourselves: One evening in March 1970, Mike, a Canadian, met Anne, an Australian in Barcelona, Spain. After marrying in England we lived in Europe & North America working in international sports providing hospitality and catering. Travelling extensively, we needed a base for our 2 children and chose Vancouver BC. Canada where we developed a passion for skiing & the outdoor life. We discovered 'the ultimate' summer & winter destination at Whistler and purchased a vacation home there. This has been great for keeping our family active & together. Six years ago, we retired to Kelowna, BC on Lake Okanagan. We still love meeting great folks from around the world and do just that at our very busy B&B. Our children & spouses live close-by and we now have 2 lovely granddaughters.
Why the owner chose an apartment in this location
When we had an opportunity to invest in another property in Whistler, it was without hesitation that looked to the same quiet area with easy access to all that happens in the Village, so retaining Valhalla as our main vacation home, we purchased the smaller adjacent Northstar. Although downhill skiing is a passion in our family, our son-in-law introduced us to Nordic (X-country) skiing so we appreciate this location being walking distance to the Lost Lake Trails. Of course Whistler also boasts the Olympic Nordic trails at Callaghan Valley a short drive to the south. In February, 2010 the Winter Olympic Games will be hosted by Vancouver & Whistler and we know that the athletes, visitors and those watching throughout the world on TV will be awed by Whistler as we continue to be.
Unique benefits of the property
Although this was an investment property to begin, as we get older we love this property more & more with its one-level ground floor layout, and because as a growing family, now that we have grandchildren, it gives us access to additional adjacent completely self contained accommodation. Northstar is a cosy and very comfortable townhouse with a cheery atmosphere added by the stunning red furniture and accent walls. With a King/Twin bed and comfortable sofa bed and bathroom with Jacuzzi tub, the accommodation suits all. The year round heated swimming pool and large hot tub are an enjoyable addition. This townhouse is totally equipped for your stay, so just bring your sports equipment and clothes and relax and enjoy.
