If you find ownership in Whistler to be cost prohibitive or you don’t need the amount of time that full ownership Phase I, Phase II or standard residential homes, apartments and townhomes offer, shared ownership is a cost effective way to guarantee time at the resort at a fraction of the cost of full ownership.  Examples of shared ownership are Horstman House on Blackcomb’s Upper Village, Legends in Whistler Creekside and it’s pet friendly sister property Evolution, also in Whistler Creekside.  These are ‘Quarter-share’ models which give 1 week every 4 weeks of personal use on a rotating 4 year calendar. This guarantees owners a Christmas week or Easter week every 4 years. If you are unable to come to the resort to use your week, the on-site hotel management company will manage nightly rentals for you. Another shared ownership option, for larger families and groups that are looking for only a few weeks each season, is Fairmont’s Heritage Place At Natures Door.  This exclusive ski in ski out development above Whistler Creekside offers large multi-story 3 & 4 bedroom homes, featuring gourmet kitchens, open plan living space, private hot tubs and large double car garages.  On-site, owners enjoy a swimming pool, common area hot tubs, a front desk with concierge service, shuttle service and an exception travel benefits program from Accor. Owners receive 5 weeks each year; 2 winter weeks, 2 summer weeks and a 5th float week.
