Sophie's Stopover - Cozy Renovated Condo Perfect for a Couple, Easy Walk to Groceries, Free Bus

Sophie's Stopover, brought to you by Mountain Vacation Lodging, is an affordable, renovated condo perched just above the Fraser River. It is the perfect place for couples or singles who are looking for something better than a hotel room. This private 1-Bedroom condo includes a kitchen, living room, and full bathroom, and a very convenient location. During the recent renovations (which took place the winter of 2023), the homeowners took what was a studio condo down to the studs, then rebuilt it into the cozy, modern 1 bedroom condo that you see here. They removed the outdated baseboard heating and added radiant electric heat in addition to the electric fireplace. There is a small yet well equipped kitchen with a fridge, small 4 burner electric stove, microwave, toaster, crockpot, etc. There is no dishwasher, so if that's a necessity for your group, this probably isn't the place for you. A great breakfast bar provides one option for dining, but there are also fold out tv tables, if you prefer to dine in front of the tv. Speaking of which, the TV is a high definintion SmartTV, so you can easily stream your favorite content. The bedroom features a Queen size bed and has a nook that is perfect for luggage and clothing storage, as well as getting dressed for your day of adventure. A pocket door separates the bedroom from the living room, for additional privacy. This condo has everything you need, but to top it off, the condo building also has a nice communal area with a large gas fireplace and a laundry room (coin-operated).

Guests who visit in Spring, Summer, or Fall can walk, jog, or stroll along the Fraser River Trail. Bring your fishing rod and try your luck! The free bus picks up and drops off right by this condo as well. This bus stop is served by 4 different bus routes including the black "express" route, with services from the Winter Park Resort base to and from this property, and in the other direction, all the way to Granby. Review routes by google searching for "The Lift Winter Park". This bus stop is called "Safeway @ CR 804". The Fraser Amtrak train station is only 0.7 miles (1.1 kilometers) from the condo, so if you're coming in by train, it is walkable to the condo, but a bus ride or Uber will get you to this condo very quickly.

There may be other requirements. For example, Guests may be required to provide additional information about the group that will occupy the property and or identification documents. Background checks may be performed, and in some areas are required by local law. Guests may be required to provide a credit card and or a refundable security/damage deposit.

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact us before booking.
** Amenities - Some private or shared amenities may not be available for guest use during certain periods. Some amenities, when part of a property, may close daily, seasonally, or for maintenance. As such, all amenities can not be guaranteed to be available at all times. Please advise us when or before booking if you have questions about a specific property amenity so that we can give you the most accurate information possible for your dates.
** Air Conditioning - Most mountain resort properties were not built with air conditioning. During most hours of the day and weeks of the year, AC is not needed. Summer nights are cool and fans are provided at most properties. Check the average high and low temperatures and weather forecast for your dates of travel, and look at the list of amenities to see if AC or fans are part of the rental property and look for ceiling fans in photos.
** Group Sizes, High Occupancy Fees, & Maximum Occupancy - Some properties use a “High Occupancy Fee” to “raise the rate” for larger groups, and are thus able to list a lower nightly rate for smaller groups. Each rental agreement and associated rates are for a specific group size. Guests must enter the correct and maximum group size at the time of booking. The agreement requires a guest to confirm the group size and subsequently, to disclose any changes to the planned group size, which may result in an increase, or decrease, to the total cost, and may result in a security deposit becoming required.
** Video & Noise Monitoring - Please note that noise monitoring devices, and security cameras, do exist on the exterior of the property. Cameras are positioned to cover all entrances and exits of the home. Cameras are present to ensure the property remains secure and safe, as well as to ensure that guests are honest and upfront about their planned use of the property. If you plan to bring more people than you've indicated, more dogs than indicated, to host a party or event, or do not intend to respect neighbors or the value and quality of the property, then this is not the place for you, and you should not book the property. For normal, respectful groups, we are sorry that these statements and measures are necessary. Security cameras and noise monitoring devices are an example and demonstration that the property's owners are taking steps to ensure the home remains available for rental, and in good condition, for your benefit. Please let us know if you have any concerns.
** Cleaning Fees & Lengthy Rental Periods - The standard cleaning fee quoted as part of any booking is for the final cleaning, which is to be performed after the rental period has ended. For guests who are booking a lengthy stay of more than one week, a mid stay-cleaning fee equal to the final cleaning fee may apply for the second week, third week, and so on. If you are booking for a lengthy stay, please contact us before booking online to discuss your group, your dates, the rates, the cleaning schedule, etc.
