World Mark At Cascade Lodge

I love World Mark at Cascade Lodge and picked it for my stay to participate in Ironman Canada 2016. Now I am injured and trying to rent my timeshare. Please reply if you know the best way to do this or if you would like to rent our week from July 19-​July 26, 2016.

Enjoying our stay at Cascade Lodge! Perfect place as its right by Whistler Village with plenty of places to eat and check out! The only problem I can see is from the room to the Patio, you have to stop over about a 6 inch thing where the sliding door is– so while it doesnt effect me at all, I can see if someone who is disabled or have issues and want to go outside for whatever reason might have issues= so if that describes you I would suggest telling front desk as there may be a more handicap friendly room. The place has everything! Love being Worldmark by Wyndham owners!

Great proximity to the village. Friendly staff greets you immediately! right The rooms are clean with just the right amount of amenities for a quick get away. Free wi-​if and ski check. Board and ski rentals available in the lobby. Rooms have fridge, microwave, dishwasher, and basic kitchen items. Studio rooms are surprisingly spacious. Great hotel near the heart of the village!

Arrived in our room to find ground in stains all over the carpet. Have been given room on ground floor with no view and right next to highway. My wife could not sleep because of traffic noise during the night. Have asked staff to see if it is possible to get moved to another room… it is 4 hours later and we are still waiting to see if that is a possibility! We were told that even if we did move rooms, it is an $ 80.00 fee to move (in order to pay cleaning staff). Staff have said that the best they could do is to reduce the fee to $ 40.00.
Not the worst hotel by any stretch, but has been disappointing. However, location is good and pool is nice. Now, let’s see if we get a call back about moving to a new room!
Update: We have moved to a new room… smaller, but cleaner, brighter, and located on the opposite side from the highway. They also waived the entire $ 80.00 fee as we had to wait so long. I do appreciate this type of customer service. Also, we are actually in the ResortQuest portion of Cascade Lodge, not the World Mark.

Cascade lounge has it’s good and bad traits…
So, let’s start with the GOOD!
Price: if you have a timeshare– GREAT price, if you don’t, it can be pricey!
Room: large, sleeps 6
Cleanliness: from what I saw, it was fine, but one can never tell
Kitchenware: useful and plenty
Pool: Fantastic
Sauna: Great!
Gym: Minimal, but totally functional and clean!
Guest Services: in the pool area, great
Now, the BAD!
Décor: Dated
Kitchenware: Dated and some were not clean
Guest Services: at the front, not so great! Not very helpful
I’ll just leave it at that. Would go back again if the price was right and I got another room.

We stayed here over spring break 2012 and 2010 and found the hotel and staff to be very good. The World Mark staff are extremely accommodating and courteous.
They have a very large pool and two hot tubs which is great since most hotels in Whistler only have one hot tub and a pool that’s the size of your one car garage.
The location is perfect since Marketplace IGA is 1.5 blocks away and to get to the lifts, you just cross the street and jump on the free bus. Also, if you rent equipment, Affinity rentals is in the lobby.
We didn’t pay for parking so not sure why the other Unilocaler was paying $ 15/​day. Which is about par for hotels in Whistler that do charge for parking.
Fortunately, no black mold in our rooms and the dishes were clean.
There was a bit of heating problem with one of the rooms we had… the BR didn’t seem to heat up at all. Pretty cold at night but that was okay since you’re under the covers anyway.
Overall, very good value since we paid $ 450 per week for each room in the middle of March, peak spring break.

This place sucks.
Our room had black mold, the dishes supplied were dirty, and they charge $ 15 for parking.
The staff are snotty, and it’s farther away from the lifts than anywhere else in Whistler.
After complaining about our room, we were informed that there were no other rooms. When we told them my partner was a building inspector, there were suddenly many rooms available. It took three hours to get us moved, with us first being placed in a much smaller room, and then being moved from a mountain view to a room right beside the highway. Our plans for the day were ruined, and the management offered no cmpensation.
Screw this joint.
It sucks.

Cascade Lodge awesome, right from the start that staff were super friendly and helpful.
The room itself it really nice, lots of windows and there is a heavy line of trees between the hotel and the highway so it was a really nice view to sit inside for a bit in front of the fireplace and watch the snow fall.
There is everything you need for a longer stay, in suite laundry, dishwasher, and fully stocked kitchen.
The only downfall is we were not warned of the construction that would be going on in the morning and waking up with a hangover to someone in the hall setting of a nail gun every 15 seconds was pretty frustrating, but I guess that’s why it was only like $ 30 a night!

We stayed here for the week leading up to, and for the first few days of the Olympics, and I have to say it was amazing. I’ve stayed at many other Worldmark locations, and this one ranks near the top.
They only have 1 bedroom units at the Cascade Lodge, so it was a little small, but they were nicely furnished, and made use of the space very well.
There are 2 things that stood out the most to me about this location:
The first is its proximity to everything in Whistler, You’re literally a 2 minute walk from everything, the market, Whistler Village, and about a 5 minute walk to Whistler-​Blackcomb mountain itself. Aside from sitting on top of the mountain, you can’t ask for a better location.
The second thing was the service. We came in on an early flight, so were there around 11am. Our hotel room wasn’t ready yet, so the lady at the counter told us that she would personally go up and take care of the room for us. She didn’t call the cleaning crew, she herself cleaned up the room so we could check in.
When we left, we got stuck at an event until at least an hour past our check-​out time, and when I called the front desk, they were more than understanding, and told us whenever we got back, that would be fine.
I highly recommend all Worldmark owners check out this resort. You won’t be disappointed.

Stayed at the Cascade Lodge last week for 4 nights. We got a 1 BR w/​no view. It was clean, well maintained and warm. The gas fireplace in our room was a little unpredictable. When we turned the dial to X amount of time, the flame would die out sometimes and come back on whenever it felt like it. Weird, but not that big of a deal. Both mattresses (sofabed and in the bedroom) were a bit aged and uncomfortable and some of the pillows were lumpy.
The (outdoor) hot tubs were nice to unwind in after a long day of snowboarding. On Thursday night though, one of the hottubs was closed. Rumor has it– some «uni kids» thought it’d be funny to put laundry soap in it.
Convenient location though. Right across the street from the Main St plaza and the Whistler Village.
