I'm so sorry that the Tube Park wasn't quite open for your stay. Looks like it should be open soon, but always based on conditions. I'm happy to hear that your stay was enjoyable and that you enjoyed the spacious accommodation. We look forward to hosting you again!

The place has good amenities but no air conditioning and during hot days makes it uncomfortable. They also have an earlier check out and ask guest to take out garbage and recycling as well as start the dishwasher. Our door in the second bedroom wouldn’t close and although we submitted the info, it was never addressed. Overall for the cost, I would book somewhere else next time.

Was not very clean. No AC, had to keep the windows opened which caused both nights we were there lots of noise from people who did not care about others at the main entrance. Not the quality we expected for the price we paid.

Woodrun is an easy walk down to the upper village. The unit was large enough for 2 families and kitchen was spacious enough for us to use. The bike storage was good but full. They did put out an extra bike rack in the parkade next to the bike storage room for the overflow.

Disappointing.
Very disappointing. Construction going on in hotel so constant noises throughout the day starting at 8 in the morning. Tough when you have napping toddlers. Unit is tired and dated. Pool was closed for maintenance one day which was disappointing as it was nicest day we were there. Front door staff was excellent.

Love this hotel
Rooms and location were amazing. A bit of a smell to sofa furniture. Worst part about the stay was the two twin beds in the one room were very uncomfortable and noisy. Both people had a terrible sleep on this bed. The kind bedroom was awesome. Bathrooms are old fashioned and need a bit of updating.

The condo was very spacious, the kitchen well equipped and the hot tub and outdoor pool were great to take advantage of after a long day of skiing. There is an exit out the back of the condo in the ski lockers that give you direct access to the hill. It was a short walk to the village after skiing to take advantage of the amenities. Blackcomb gondola is much less busy than the Whistler gondola so that was a plus in the morning to get up the mountain.

Cant beat the ski in ski out location for Blackcomb. The building is in bad shape and needs , in my opinion good renovation. The room was ok but do not expect luxury, You will enter into a unit which is 30 years old. analogue beige thermostat, very old shower and green carpet. however the room was clean. Would i stay there again ???? dont think so, not for the price i paid. I could have stayed at the hilton (2 rooms with full Kitchen) for the same price

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review of your recent stay. The photos listed reflect the unit as it currently is, so you know what to expect prior to arrival. For future stays, there is a free shuttle bus that stops directly in front of the Woodrun Lodge that will take you to the Village in 5 minutes. It passes every 15 minutes.

Family Getaway
The units we stayed in were clean and comfortable. There was an unexpected mechanical maintenance issue that required the pool to be closed for the duration of our stay. I spoke to an agent who gave us another upgraded unit on our last day, as they were unaware of the pool being closed for an extra two days. We were told we could move over to the unit at our leisure that day, but when we got there I ran into trouble as the next agent was reluctant to give me necessary access codes to the unit, beyond the first one time access code. The first agent had told me there would be no problem getting another code if needed, as the assigned access codes for the unit would come into affect at 4:00 p.m. Had to do some strong negotiating with this agent. The first agent was now on lunch. Agent number 2 did come back to me giving me another code and changing my access code assigned to the unit to start at 2:00 p.m. after speaking with management. I had to call in again as the access code I got only worked for the parking garage. Agent 3 “Ray” was very kind to help us out and also arranged to have a resort employee retrieve our pizza from the previous unit that we forgot. We enjoyed our stay at the Woodrun, the deck was nice overlooking tree tops. Our stay at the Ironwood was very nice too, we enjoyed a nice swim in the pool. Communication was a bit of a problem though, stressed me out a little on our last day there, as I was wanting to just unpack into the replacement unit.

The condo was spacious and in a good location. During COVID 19 we were concerned about the cleanliness however the condo was clean but there was only one sign to say one person per elevator. During our time there we never saw anyone cleaning door handles although this might be getting done. This is our second time in this building and we will go again.

Two bedroom condo was spacious and had everything needed for a great vacation. Kitchen was fully equipped. Ski lockers were spacious although the combination locks were a bit finicky. Hot tub was huge and not crowded when we were there. Staff was friendly. Covered underground parking a real plus in the winter.

Spacious ski in/out unit
The unit 319 is very spacious with 2 x pull-out sofas actually, a good sized room w bench, shelf and hanging space for all skiwear plus closet good for suitcases and big things. There are free ski lockers on ground floor to store skis as you come in/out from slopes. It is only a few meters walk to get to the ski run. Pools are only outside but nice and heated/hot. Parking is free and in undercover garage. We booked well in advance (and thus a discount even) which made this a very good value, esp for a ski in/out place. NB: I would not say it is easily walkable to the main village from here (looks that way on maps) but the shuttle stop is near and convenient enough. We had a car all week and with the easy in/out parking we mostly used that. Parking near village is about $5 for the day and free after hours.

So so. Prior to booking I phoned to inquire about the hot tub and was failed to be told it was empty. I also asked about a bbq and was told there should be - there wasn’t and had pre purchased steaks. I asked about additional parking passes at check in and whiski jack didn’t have them, it was too late to get them from woodruff. The dishes were 50% caked with food and greasy and not cleaned. Luckily it was a group of guys spending little time in the condo, it was disappointing to be mislead. It was nice to have a clean bed at the end of the long days.

Hi Aaron, Thank you for taking the time to review your stay at the Woodrun Lodge with Whiski Jack Resorts. I am sorry to hear you feel as you were misled for your stay and were provided incorrect information regarding BBQ’s prior to arrival. We are in the process of fully training our new staff and sincerely apologize for the miscommunication. The Woodrun Lodge Strata rules currently do not allow for any BBQ’s on the property. I am afraid because Whiski Jack Resorts was not informed regarding the hot tub closure, we were unable to provide you with this information until it had been brought to our attention by yourself. Whiski Jack Resorts guarantees one parking pass per booking. I am sorry to hear the Woodrun Lodge front desk was unable to assist after they had closed, although I hope they were able to assist you the next morning. As for dishes, we are just a phone call away at any time during your stay if you are having any issues including levels of cleanliness. We strive to provide a welcoming fresh arrival to all our units, but clearly failed on this occasion. I can assure you that this is not a standard of Whiski Jack Resorts. We appreciate your feedback and comments as they are used to improve our guest's experience. We hope you will consider staying with us in the future.

Our first stay in Whistler was made extra special by this spacious, comfortable condo. Check in is unique and offsite which several minutes away. The process was fast and pleasant however. Checkout was easier, simply dropping the keys off at the concierge onsite. Underground secured parking was appreciated. Ice machine ground floor, always full. Outdoor pool and hot tub were enjoyed after long days exploring. Traffic is always heavy and parking is terrible in this resort town but we found nearby restaurants and a grocery store with everything we needed. The kitchen is large and spacious. Furniture and appliances are all new or in very good condition. Wifi, check. TV & BluRay, check. Bedrooms were great and there was lots of room for our family. This was one of our accommodation highlights in a multi-destination family holiday and made our time in the Whistler-Pemberton area even more enjoyable. Would definitely recommend to others.

Ski in/out is great but property is old and everything makes noise from heater, dishwasher, etc.
Check in is in a different location — creekside. Check out time super stringent at 10am and no way to leave the car in the lot longer either.
