The golf course…read morewas designed by Robert Trent Jones Jr who is one of the better and more prolific designers out there. The course starts off pretty tough with some serious elevation changes and sharp drop offs (don't go long on hole1...you ball falls into an abyss). Near the end of the front nine the course gets a little more tame and manageable as long as you can avoid the hazards and trees. The greens are good sized and rolled fast and true. I made a few birdies which always makes the round more fun. After the round we enjoyed lunch on the patio just past the 18th green. It was a perfect way to end the round! While this course is one of the nicest I've played in BC, their rates also reflect their pride for the course. Peak season you'll be looking at $250+ and I believe there's better value for my money, thus making this place and one and done for golf. I checked that box and will unlikely play here again. Thanks Fairmont Chateau Whistler Golf Club for the fun and unique experience of playing your course!

I didn't play well here but still I consider this to be an easy course. The fairways are wide and forgiving. If you can (and that's a big IF for me!) keep your drive relatively straight, you can pretty much pin back your ears and wale away! I like Whistler golf course. Right in the heart of the Whistler area this course stands as a testament to man's desire to be perfect! Easy as it is we still can't play the perfect game! In golf the goal is to minimize and mitigate your errors... even on an easy course like Whistler golfer have to manage their mistakes. The course was in excellent shape. The fairways were green and flowing. The greens were a bit on the hard side (or maybe it's that I don't have a high trajectory on my balls), I couldn't keep too many approach shots on the putting surface. The bunkers were excellent. As my friend said... 'it's nice to know when you pay over $100 for the green fee there is sand in the bunkers!' Haha! Whistler golf course is very flat and walkable. I was lazy and carted but on a nice day it's a perfect walk in the park. I recommend Whistler Golf Course to all golf lovers. It's a beauty and a joy to play!

Not to mention the views at the golf course are so beautiful!!

September is a great month to golf here. Cooler temperatures make for an enjoyable game and prices are reasonable for such a highly rated course. Big Sky is a course for more experienced golfers. The course has a 454, 14th hole named "Hang Time", if you enjoy driving. The greens are lush, firm and fast. Great amenities on site including a driving range, practise bunker and putting greens. The beautiful restaurant has a patio with stunning views. I really enjoyed playing here this fall.

I've had small issues with items and they will not assist with warranty. Even with a Life time warranty on a $500 jacket two years later she said, well you've worn it a lot.... And handed me a brochure and recommended that I look for a seamstress. Same story today with the sales lady cutting me off, not listening, and telling me to go home and check the website about a product. I'd not go back, but I love the product line. It's smart and wears well and is high performance. Don't expect discounts.

I recently joined a tour with Whistler eBikes and had a great time overall. The highlight was…read moredefinitely our guide -- friendly, engaging, and clearly knowledgeable about the area, which made the ride more enjoyable. The tour itself was well-paced, offering a long, smooth journey through Whistler with plenty of scenic views. It was much more relaxing than I expected, and a really fun way to spend a day outdoors. That said, the bikes themselves could use some updates. They felt old, fairly heavy, and a couple had worn-down tires, which took away from the otherwise smooth ride. Some sections of the trail looped back on themselves, which made the route feel a bit repetitive at times. Overall, though, it was a good experience: beautiful landscapes, a laid-back atmosphere, and a guide who made the tour engaging. With some bike upgrades, this could easily become a five-star experience. Works out to be 150$/person for 2.5 hours. Maybe pricey for most but it is competitive pricing.

Our fragile little Southern Californian bodies braved the cold to try out snowshoeing, and Whistler…read moreOlympic Park was the perfect place to do so. We rented our snowshoes from the main lodge, which also had cross country ski rentals (apparently 90km of cross country trails, whatever that is in miles), snowboards, tobogganing, and so many more wintery things that are completely separate from my understanding of normal outdoor activities. I mean, where else can you find biathlon lessons? Obviously the surrounding area is gorgeous in winter, a wonderland of quiet white stillness, forests and forests of evergreens, and creek beds lined with powdery snow and ice. There are frequent signs and maps to keep you oriented along the snowshoeing trails, which was great for us noobs. You can do anything from short out-and-back trips to several miles of strenuous trails. One star docked because I thought the snowshoes were pretty pricey for a rental - a flat rate of $16 regardless of the time you spend with them. They definitely did not seem to be in high demand either as there were dozens of pairs behind the register. Maybe instead do an hourly rate instead? This is in addition to a per-person entry fee to the park. Also, some of the cross county skiers were surprisingly rude when we stepped on their track - I get we were in the wrong, but have a little grace and chill out just a bit.

It's a trek to get there, even after you park, but so worth it. We started with 9 of the "bottom" 18 so we could stay close to the trail when it started pouring. Heard the upper 9 are incredible, fun to throw downhill a stretch. On those we did it could often be tricky to find the basket behind the course's rolling rock hills and swaths of trees. Inevitably someone would see the next basket or tonal and paths were well laid to follow through to the next launch pad.

I brought my discs to Whistler specifically to try out this course, and I was not disappointed!…read more There are 27 holes, and after two trips I was still not able to complete them all. The holes cover varied terrain, and most of them have a long and short distance to the hole (if you really want more challenge). I didn't find it difficult to move from hole to hole, as there are arrows pointing in the correct direction, and maps of each hole at the start. There's a porta-potty at the halfway point of the course, and some maps scattered throughout. Overall this is a really fun course, and I'm glad I made time to visit while on vacation. I'm taking off a star because the course itself was super difficult to find. We wandered on foot from the Valley Trail for a while, and found one sign that led to a fork with no further direction. We didn't fare much better in a vehicle, and ended up parking in a random lot. I saw a sign in some of the trails that was pointing to "Disc Golf Parking" but there were no signs when driving in by car.

There are a plethora of bike shops around the Whistler area, and when you search online, this is…read moreone of the more recommended shops due to it being one of the few local, independent shops still around. I'm all for supporting local, but this shop has proved why large conglomerates are able to take over areas so easily. Being a small, independent shop doesn't mean you can get away with providing shoddy services and rude attitudes to your customers, as this place does. I rented a V10 here to ride at the bike park earlier in the summer, and I thought I was being pranked with how poorly tuned the bike was for my weight and size. It's as if they tuned it for a 300+ lb bodybuilder. I inputted my weight (140lbs) and height on the registration sheet, and it seemed to be completely ignored. I get that bike parks are extremely rough on the bikes, but practically maxing out the suspension and tire pressure will do nothing but provide an extremely poor rider experience and also risk injury. Maybe that's the strategy: wear out the riders by practically giving them no suspension so they ride less, resulting in less wear and tear on the bike? I consider myself an advanced rider, and as I did my first run down Crank It Up, I couldn't help but wonder if riding down cobblestones in Paris Roubaix on a tireless road bike would've offered a smoother experience as I was getting absolutely beaten to shreds on the bike. My buddy, a former bike shop mechanic, tinkered around with the tire pressure and so on before we brought it back to the shop to get the bike further adjusted. We were introduced to the presumably lead mechanic, the older Australian gentleman. As we explained the situation and what we did, he began to talk down to us for tinkering with the bike because we could have done some irreparable damage. I get that there are people who foolishly think they know more than they do, but I can't even wrap my head around how much damage we could have done taking air out of the tire or adjusting the compression on the fork. We had a four-day rental and brought the bike back four times within the first two days (not including the returns where we voiced our thoughts) with the same exact complaint before the Australian mechanic seemed fed up with us and decided to check out the suspension, only for them to realize that the bike had a completely damaged suspension and that it needed to be replaced. When you're paying more than $200 a day for a rental, you expect some level of service and functionality from the tool that you're using. Unfortunately, that was not the case for me. Despite all of the "adjustments" that were made, I felt like I was cosplaying as a first-day jackhammer operator riding that bike. My forearms and hands were absolutely beat because of the lack of a working suspension system, and I was mentally drained from the dread I endured knowing I would have to go back to the shop each time for adjustments and endure a condescending interaction with the mechanic. I'm sure the bike shop deals with beginners all the time who have a hard time conveying their experiences or blame the bike for their fatigue when, in reality, it is the physical nature of the sport. However, I ride multiple times a week, have no issues riding some of the more technical parts of the mountain, and conveyed this information to the bike shop, expecting them to be a bit more sympathetic and provide even a baseline level of customer service. Unfortunately, that was not the case. There were several other bike shops that my buddy and I stopped by within the Whistler Village that treated us better than Evolution, despite them being conglomerate-owned. I'm all for supporting local, but I can't in good conscience recommend this place, especially to beginners. With the way they set their bikes up, someone can seriously get injured or worse. If you receive even double the service I did, you'd leave disappointed and feel like your money was wasted. This bike shop is sadly an extremely poor steward of the sport and strongly highlights the negative, pompous attitude of biking culture.
