I have taken my family here twice and as soon as I can afford it, I will buy a condo at Big White. The snow is phenomenal, Copper Kettle condos fantastic, friendly staff (mostly Aussies), terrific family atmosphere etc etc. The supermarket prices are ok, but if you have a car, stock up on supplies in Kelowna. more

This is truely the best Family Resort I have ever been to. There is free organised activities for the Kids and the Adults most nights in the Big White Resort Centre and a fireworks display twice a week! The atmosphere is relaxed and freindly and the skiing is second to none. If you are looking for a great family skiing... more

We just returned from spending a week at Big White during the Ontario March break (Mar 13th to the 20th, 2009). On our 2nd day there we were already planning to return next year.

The problem with skiing here is, in common with Silver Star, its served by Kelowna Airport and that in turn is served by Air Canada Jazz. This airline has a capacity problem and when our original flight was cancelled due to snow it was a day and a half until we could get a seat on another, but then this... more

My family along with two others just came back from a 4 day ski holiday to Big White. It is a perfect family resort for all ages. The mountain is great with lots of terrain and variety although not necessarily geared to extreme, expert skiers. The snow is usually great (not especially this year so far) and everything is so... more

Had a fantastic time here last year and thinking of going again. We (8 of us!) stayed at the new Raven condo in Happy Valley in a really luxurious Penthouse for a reasonable price. Great skiing, friendly people and good service! more
