Local Tips
Just for Kids!
| Best rainy day kids activities | The Alpen Rock has a great arcade setup. |
| Cool playgrounds | The coolest jungle gym set you"ll ever see is located just outside our window!! We are about 2 blocks away from one of the best skateboard parks in North America. |
My Money Saving Tips
| Cheapest times to come to Whistler | Spring and Fall. Some of the best skiing we"ve had has been in May. Autumn is the most beautiful time for colors, and is our favorite season. |
| Less expensive places to eat | McDonalds, and KFC are located very convieniently to our Condo. Gaitors Restaurant located next to the Shoestring Lodge is a favorite place for the locals. |
| My biggest money saving tips | Buy groceries at the IGA store just steps from our Condo and do some creative home cooking. Also make use of our complimentary Allura Resort Card which will give you savings throughout the Village. |
On a Personal Note
| Our favourite season in Whistler and why. | Our favorite season is Autumn. The colors are georgous, there are no crowds, the air is brisk, and the skiing is about to return. |
| What makes Whistler so special and unique? | Whistler is rated the #1 ski area for multiple reasons. The skiing is such that experts and intermediate skiers can ski together, skiing different runs down and meeting up at a lower level. The Village is noted for it"s archetecture and "pedestrian-only" design. It abounds with shopping, great restaurants, and superb night-life. Whether it"s skiing, golfing, hiking, shopping, or just relaxing; you will find it at Whistler. |
The Drive to Whistler
| Best places to eat | Grab a bite to eate in Squamish. It"s good break in the drive from Vancouver to Whistler. |
| My safety tips for drivers new to Hwy 99 | Try to arrive in daylight & plan for bad weather/accidents!If you are arriving late at night (YOUR TIME), either stay in Vancouver, or opt for the 24 hour airport shuttle via Whistler Star Express. The drive is challenging in the dark. <br> Check out Guest Services for info about the shuttle (you get a discount!) Please note that this is not a great place to teach your son/daughter to drive..skilled drivers only!! |
| What I like about the drive | If the weather is nice, the drive from Vancouver to Whistler is one of the most scenic highways in North America. Take your time and allow yourself several stops to see the sights. |
