The property was absolutely gorgeous. It looked nice on the listing but was even bigger and better than expected. The hosts were incredibly friendly and helpful. The attention to detail and little extras such as bath robes and snacks were great. Would definitely come back again

Fabulous Accommodation

This accommodation lacks for nothing. Comfortable, extremely well equipped, nothing has been left to want. So much attention to detail all with the renter in mind. The owners are caring and so easy to deal with. Located a short 5 minute drive to the public parking at the ski slope. Also a ski shuttle bus stop almost immediately in front of accommodation should you decide to not drive to hill yourself. The private hot tub is certainly an added bonus, This was our second stay at Creekside Oasis and we look forward to our next visit!

Very cozy VRBO with hot tub.

Very nicely decorated and comfortable place. Loved sitting in the hot tub and watching the falling snow. Hope to come back again in the summer to see the stream flowing. The owners were very informative about the area. We had a great relaxing time. Thank you!

Quaint place to stay

My husband and I had an anniversary get away for a few days in Aug 2023. This was a cute and quaint place to stay. We enjoyed the hot tub both in the morning and in the evening. The creek was pleasant to sit and drink coffee by. The check in/check out, was simple. The owner thought of everything you might want while there. Will definitely stay again.

Perfect relaxing escape

We loved the clean cozy atmosphere they created. From the personal touches to how they let us know of events happening while we were there so we didn't miss out. It was the perfect weekend away. My favorite was how peaceful it was having my morning coffee on the patio looking out at the forest with the sounds of the creek.

Lovely Suite

The suite exceeded our expectations in every way! So quiet, spacious & clean. Hosts have provided absolutely everything you could think of to have on hand..books, games, fully kitted kitchen etc Best of all was the hot tub backing onto the creek. Wish we would have booked longer! Leo and Melanie came out to greet us upon arrival which was really nice :)

Perfect stay in Sun Peaks

Creekside Oasis is a must-visit apartment. We had a great time staying in Mel and Leo's ground floor apartment. They had thought of every last detail, with everything you need for a relaxing trip. We particularly loved the hot tub and its views. Mel and Leo were both really friendly and wanted to help us out in any way possible. We hope to return in the future!

A Perfect Holiday

We loved our stay at the Creekside Oasis. Melanie and Leo have created a beautifully designed suite. It had charming touches, board games, and media options. We were amazed by how well-stocked the kitchen was with all the cooking essentials and a coffee bar. The private hot tub was a perfect way to end a day of skiing. Additionally, we appreciated check-ins from our host, stopping by to chat and provide ski run suggestions and restaurant recommendations. A truly wonderful stay - we are looking forward to booking the Creekside Oasis for our next winter holiday.

Felt just like home as soon as we walked in

Melanie and Joe have the most welcoming unit, just perfect for the two of us. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, especially the private hot tub to soak in after a day on the slopes. The acommodation provided us with everything we could want in a vacation rental. Wonderfully comfortable bed, great TV, very well equiped kitchen and a great room to store all our travelling gear. It was just fantastic! We have found our "forever rental" at Sun Peaks! So great that we already have already booked our next trip to 'Creekside Oasis" for 2024. You will not be disappointed with this rental. Everything in the unit has been well thought out and Melanie and Joe are just the greatest people to deal with. We were comfortable from the moment we arrived. And we certainly enjoyed staying away from the hustle and bustle of the Village. It was only a short drive of 5 minutes away when we wanted to hit the slopes or go shopping in the Village. So looking forward to our next visit!

Wonderful apartment. Beautiful setting. Spacious.

We enjoyed our stay in this spacious and well-prepared apartment. Great skiing. Very pleasant and responsive hosts live upstairs. Hot tub, tv room, everything about flat was great. For skiers to note: although you can walk over to Burfield Chair, this is an extremely long slow chair (@22-23 minutes), so we didn't do this. It's a very short drive to parking lot, or you can take shuttle bus to village + main lift area. Also note it is a basement apartment and there are two sets of stairs.

We loved everything about this property that is truly an Oasis. Mel has thought of everything and lots of extra little touches. The suite is very homey and cozy and weather you stay in our go out you will not need anything. The outdoor hot tub was perfect after a long day hiking. Mel , gave us lots of info on the area and things to do. I felt that she was also available at all times if we needed anything. We will stay here again on our next trip to Sun Peaks.

About the host

Hosted by Melanie

Melanie and Leo Pouliot are the owner/operator/hosts of Creekside Oasis. They made Sun Peaks their full time residence in 2012. It has always been their dream to live full time at Sun Peaks Resort after skiing here for over 40 years as a family. They are absolutely thrilled to have created the newly renovated Creekside Oasis to share with guests from near and far.
Melanie lives for skiing and everything outdoors. Full time mountain living has provided her the opportunity to complete CSIA & CADS ski instructor certifications to teach and guide those with visual impairment. She is a holistic health practitioner, energy psychologist, yoga instructor, nutritionist and published author. She is passionate about helping others and is thrilled to add being a host of Creekside Oasis in her mountain home retreat as an exciting addition to her robust lifestyle.
Leo is the ultimate outdoors enthusiast. A retired fishing guide, butcher and landscape company owner to now a ‘Piston Bully’ snow cat operator/supervisor in the winter and golf course maintenance supervisor in the summer. You will find Leo in the ‘shoulder seasons’ casting a fly rod on one of the many lakes in the area.

Why they chose this property

Mel and Leo chose this property for the peaceful environment, the surrounding beauty of the forest and mountains and the gentle sound of McGillvary Creek that continuously flows alongside their home. The kicker was the view of Tod Mountain and the Burfield chair lift along with the clear view of Expo and Challenger meadows, a few of their long time favourite ski runs. They love that they can ski back directly to their home and the ease of either a 5 minute walk to the Burfield lift or a quick 2 min free bus shuttle to the village center that picks up directly in front of their home.

What makes this property unique

They are confident guests will love Creekside Oasis. Situated in the forested creekside of Burfield Drive, the first residential neighbourhood in Sun Peaks. The guest suite has a private, separate access from the main house, private hot tub and peaceful nature surroundings. Sitting on the patio deck chairs or lounging on the couch in the great room offer a picturesque view of wildlife. Stellar Blue Jays reside at Sun Peaks year round and typically fly by daily. There are resident squirrels, a red tailed fox has been spotted on occasion and in the fall it's common to view a black bear or two meandering along the creek foraging for winter. The continuous flow of McGillvary Creek running alongside the home provides the relaxing feeling of peace and serenity.
