Whistler, BC in Summer – Great Golf, Fishing and Hiking

WHISTLER, BC, Canada – British Columbia’s Whistler, with the surrounding Blackcomb Mountains, offers some of the best golf packages in not only Canada, but all of North America. But your golf vacation doesn’t have to start and end on one of BC’s top courses here – pack a fishing pole and some boots to partake in world-class fishing and hiking too!

The Fairmont Chateau Whistler Golf Club – BC, Canada

The Fairmont Chateau Whistler Golf Club is one of the top golf courses to include in golf packages on any golf vacation to British Columbia, Canada.

“It’s more like golfing at a Canadian Rockies golf course”, according to Mike Byner of Vancouver, BC. “The elevation gain you make right out of the shute, from #1 to #3 really reminded us of Silvertip Golf Resort in Canmore, Alberta”. Being less than a 90 minute drive from Vancouver makes Whistler golf packages very accessible, particularly for a weekend golf getaway.
