Apex Grande

Overview

Together these two residences comfortably accommodate up to 32 guests in 12 bedrooms. Expansive living areas, both inside and out, provide plenty of space for everyone to gather or find a quiet spot for privacy. The floorplans of the residences are similar, yet each residence boasts its own unique character.

The main levels in each home feature open floor plans with great rooms that are perfect for entertaining. Guests can gather around the fireplaces in each of the living areas and enthrall each other with the stories from their day’s adventures.

Meanwhile, the chefs are indulging their culinary creativity in the gourmet kitchens. Apex Lodge North’s stunning and fully equipped gourmet kitchen features luxury appliances, a separate beverage center and two dishwashers. The oversized island provides plenty of space to cook and barstool seating for 8 guests. The South side has a 6-burner island gas cooktop, two dishwashers, plenty of workspace, and an impressive wrap-around bar with seating for 8 onlookers.

Each dining area has tables that seat 10 guests, and French doors that lead out to the wraparound decks and impressive back patios. Each residence backs up to a hillside for ultimate privacy. In the summer, guests will enjoy outdoor living at its finest. Each back patio features a covered kitchen and grilling area, patio seating, and a private hot tub. A gate connects the back decks and can be opened to allow guests to flow between the two spaces.

The fun begins on the lower levels of these residences. Each has a large comfortable family room with a fireplace, big screen TV, and pool table. Apex Lodge North also has an arcade game, while Apex Lodge South features a theater room on the lower level. Movie night doesn’t get much better than this with three rows of plush recliner seating for 14 people and excellent acoustics. Recessed lighting, classic theater carpet, red walls, and a snack bar create a classic theater feel. The South residence also has a dedicated exercise room. 

Once everyone is ready to call it a night, there are 12 bedrooms between the two homes.

In Apex Lodge North the kids will delight in the bunk room on the lower level. It sleeps eight in four sets of twin/twin bunks and has an ensuite bathroom with a walk-in shower. There is also a bedroom with a queen bed and a separate bathroom with a walk-in shower.

On the main level, are three king bedrooms, all ensuite (one with a separate tub), and each has private deck access. The upper level of the home is dedicated to the primary suite with a custom log bed, a big stone fireplace, and spectacular views. This private escape is topped off with a spacious ensuite bathroom with a separate tub, walk-in dual-head shower and separate vanities for the ultimate spa-like experience.

Apex Lodge South features two bunkrooms on the lower level, one with two twin bunks and a queen bed with a private bath, and the other with a twin-over-full bunk and a hall bath.

Another 3 bedrooms (one king, two queens) are on the main level, all of them ensuite. The king suite has a soaking tub and steam shower, and access to the back patio and hot tub. As in the North residence, the upper level is dedicated to the primary king suite with the same fabulous views, fireplace and TV. Indulge in the soaking tub and walk-in steam shower.

For guests' convenience, both residences have closed door offices, air conditioning, laundry rooms and large mud rooms as you come in from the garages. The homes share the same driveway. Each garage has parking for two cars. Apex Lodge North has a Tesla home charging station.

For smaller groups of up to 16 guests, we can offer the option of the North or South lodges individually. Please note these homes are not connected internally and access to each side is through the entry level door, garage, or up a set of stairs to the main front door.

Four-wheel drive is required in winter months. However, this home does feature a heated driveway.

SKI ACCESS
The residences share a private, heated stairway to ski access for advanced skiers and is dependent on snow conditions. Lower Valley View is a 5–7-minute walk. From the top of the trail, skiing/riding down the slopes is an intermediate-level run down to the base. The return to Apex Lodge North is via Lower Valley View, a BLACK Diamond run, recommended only for advanced skiers. Please note that Lower Valley View is a south-facing, lower-mountain ski trail. Opening and closing dates are seasonal and snow-dependent. This private ski access is out of the ski area boundary and guests ski in/out at their own risk.
