Cozy MW Alpine Village 1br. Close to the alpine lodge and hikes in the meadows!

Mount Washington Alpine Resort, Courtenay.
A quieter chalet, that is central, in the winter Walk-In, Alpine Village. We are full time residents on the upper floors and you may even get to enjoy a random outdoor apres ski! After a short walk from the Upper Henry parking lot you reach the Mogul Mansion’s Marten Nest it is rustic and tidy with recycled and new finishes, it has high ceilings but is still cozy.
The bedroom has a queen lower bunk and upper twin.
As a true ski-in/ski out to Alpine or Nordic areas (minimal skating back from the Alpine runs) you can put all of your energy into adventure!
You will enjoy the safe and friendly atmosphere of the Alpine Village. We have some snowshoes available for wanders but the groomed routes are easy to walk on as well. Bring your camera for taking photos of the stunning views.
The Alpine Village boasts safer play areas due to few motorized vehicles as the Alpine Village is a walk-in village. Park in the Upper Henry lot and it’s a short meander to Mogul Mansion. We have a toboggan to help tow in your gear
Amenities:
Double hot plate, air fryer -toaster oven, toaster, kettle, coffee Bodum, bar fridge, outdoor snow fridge for beverages in the winter. Smart TV and WiFi as well. In the summer we are close to the hiking and access to the MWAR activities of ziplines, biking and hiking!
Please be aware that fireworks are also banned, and strictly enforced.

Cozy practical retreat for hiking and winter sports enthusiasts

This is a perfect base if you want access Mt Washington and the Park meadows area. We were there in the summer and went hiking on the trails at Park Meadows among the lakes and alpine vistas. Very easy to get to from this location. The cabin is a cozy, well organized and fully equipped place. The shower is amazing and the bunk beds could easily fit 3 people or 4 if you have smaller kids. Wifi worked well. Best of all the host was very accessible and responded quickly to questions and issues that arose for us. A wonderful stay!

A Homey Winter Wonderland At The Marten’s Nest!

My husband and I enjoyed the homey and well thought out decor of the Marten’s Nest.This location was very accessible for those who are wary of icy stairs and within 5 min walking distance to the Alpine Lodge.The owners were very sweet and responsive. Overall a lovely winter wonderland experience!

Winter Stay

I had a great time with my family. Our host communicated well. I didn't quite understand the "walk in" part of the listing, so that was the only thing that I might have adjusted (I packed too much!), so bags are better than suitcases. Bed was comfortable, but I did bonk my head a few times. Everything was clean and the place felt cosy.

Great host and probably the best deal on the mountain

Text interactions with our host Janine were really helpful, cheery, and right away too. The suite is about an 8 minute walk from the main lodge and a five minute walk (uphill) from Parking Lot 3. The price is awesome compared to the other current offerings. Some things to note. The unusual bunk bed is a 53" double on the bottom, not a queen and the mattress has soft edges! You can slide the unit out from the wall so the back person can stand up and walk around. Until you find the light switch over the counter, you won't be able to read the controls on the induction two-burner stove. The mountain water from the taps is deliciously cold and the hot turns hot almost instantly. There's a good supply of pots and utensils but if you plan to cook, bring everything except salt & pepper. There's some cute decoration and Christmas lighting but you may find the two colour-changing night lights a bit much. You can unplug both and still have enough night vision. Don't wait for the last day to find the USB plug-in that's built into the wall plug behind the bed. Cell service is quite good at the cabin (Bell) despite what you may read on-line about Mt Washington.
