Whistler, British Columbia, Canada, NA
Travelogue
Two hours north of Vancouver, along the scenic Sea To Sky Highway, your Chateau awaits. Skiers will know this part of the world for the stunning views and sweet powder of Whistler Mountain.
But there’s something for golfers, too. The Robert Trent Jones Jr.-designed course, which turned 25 in 2018, is carved out of the woods and the side of Blackcomb Mountain. The elevation changes frequently from hole to hole — it’s a 100-foot drop from tee to green on the par-3 10th. The surrounding valley views will fill up your memory card quickly, while your scorecard might fill up with…well, no need to keep score the first time around!
Breathe in the mountain air and enjoy the alpine setting. The
regal Fairmont Chateau, with suites that offer mountain views and an outdoor pool featuring underwater music, is less than a minute’s ride away at the base of Blackcomb — as are the bars, restaurant and shopping at Whistler Village.
