Stonebridge Lodge
One of the best parts about staying directly on the mountain at Big White Ski Resort is being able to enjoy a true ski-in, ski-out experience, and that’s exactly what you’ll find at Stonebridge Lodge.
When you take the gondola up to the main village, one of the first major chairlifts you’ll come across is the Bullet Express. Stonebridge Lodge is located right next to the Bullet Express, giving guests easy access to the slopes from its three buildings.
This is a huge perk for skiers and snowboarders. You can wake up, strap on your gear, and get right onto the mountain, making it that much easier to chase first tracks and some of that famous Okanagan Champagne Powder.
Stonebridge offers a variety of accommodation options, including one, two, and three-bedroom suites. Depending on your accommodation, you can also find amenities that make winding down after skiing almost as good as the skiing itself.
If you’re looking for a little more luxury during your Big White getaway, some suites feature gourmet kitchens, large fireplaces, beautiful views of the Monashee Mountains, and even private hot tubs. There’s something pretty special about soaking in a hot tub surrounded by snowy mountain views after spending the day on the slopes.
You’ll also be close to dining options and everything happening around the village, so once you arrive, you can settle in and enjoy the mountain without constantly worrying about getting around.
For anyone looking for a more luxurious ski-in, ski-out experience with easy access to the Bullet Express, Stonebridge Lodge is one of our top picks.
Prices vary depending on the time of year, suite type, and length of stay, so we recommend checking current rates for your travel dates before booking.
Sundance Resort
Those who frequent Big White will probably recognize Sundance Resort as one of the more iconic accommodation options on the mountain.
Located near the village and the Bullet Express, Sundance offers ski-in, ski-out access while also putting you close to many of Big White’s restaurants, shops, and activities.
When it comes to family-friendly accommodations, this is where Sundance really stands out. The resort is known for its pool and waterslide, which makes for some pretty great entertainment for the kids while the adults get a chance to decompress after a long ski or snowboard day.
There are also hot tubs and a steam room for those much-needed après-ski relaxation sessions.
Families will find plenty to keep everyone entertained off the slopes too, including a theatre and games area. When the ski boots come off for the evening, there are still lots of ways to hang out and enjoy the resort.
Depending on your suite, you may even have access to your own private hot tub, which is always a nice little luxury after spending hours on the mountain.
Sundance is also conveniently located for exploring the rest of Big White, so heading into the village for dinner, drinks, or some après-ski fun is easy.
Rates can vary significantly depending on your accommodation, travel dates, holidays, and peak winter periods, so checking availability early is always a good idea.
Overall, if you’re looking for a family-friendly place to stay at Big White with plenty to keep everyone entertained, Sundance Resort is a hard one to beat.
Copper Kettle Lodge
If peak luxury cabin and lodge vibes wrapped into a mountainside condo sound like your kind of ski getaway, Copper Kettle Lodge will probably tickle your fancy.
Located a little outside the hustle and bustle of the central village, Copper Kettle has more of a quiet mountain retreat feel. You can soak up the surrounding nature, take in views of the Monashee Mountains, and catch some seriously beautiful sunsets.
The accommodations feature plenty of natural wood throughout, giving the condos that classic mountain lodge feeling. It really does feel like you’re tucked into your own little piece of the forest while still being part of the Big White Ski Resort experience.
Depending on your accommodation, you can soak in your own private hot tub while watching the sun go down over the mountains. Pair that with a full day of skiing and you have some pretty peak après-ski vibes.
Copper Kettle Lodge is located toward the Black Forest side of the resort, giving you convenient access to the Black Forest Express and another great starting point for a day on the slopes.
If you’re looking for a natural cabin escape wrapped into a mountainside condo, Copper Kettle Lodge is hard to beat.
Inn at Big White
If you’re looking for a more laid-back stay right in the middle of the action, the Inn at Big White is another great option.
Situated right in the heart of Big White Village, you’ll be close to local restaurants, drinks, coffee shops, treats, and, of course, the ski hill. Being this central makes it easy to head out in the morning and equally easy to wander over for dinner or après-ski once the lifts close.
The Inn at Big White also features an outdoor heated pool and hot tub, giving you somewhere to relax and unwind those sore muscles after a long day of skiing or snowboarding.
While it might not have the same luxury lodge feel as some of the other accommodations on this list, it has a warm, homey atmosphere and beautiful views of the surrounding Monashee Mountains.
There’s also dedicated ski storage, making it easy to keep your gear organized throughout your stay. Access to the slopes is nearby, so it won’t take long before you’re clicking into your skis or strapping into your snowboard for another day on the mountain.
With its central location and relaxed atmosphere, the Inn at Big White works well for everything from a couples' ski getaway to a mountain weekend with your crew.
Like most accommodations at Big White, pricing varies depending on your dates, room type, day of the week, and whether you’re visiting during peak ski season. Check current rates before planning your stay to find the option that works best for your trip.
