Four Seasons Golf Resort Whistler British Columbia

Whistler - Rockies - British Columbia - Canada

North America's premier ski resort and host to the 2010 Winter Olympics, Whistler turns into a choice golf destination in summer, with four championship courses designed by such legendary names as Arnold Palmer, Jack Nicklaus, Robert Trent Jones II and Robert Cupp. Located in British Columbia's Coast Mountains, Whistler is a two-hour scenic drive up the Sea-to-Sky Highway from Vancouver, on the Pacific Coast.

Nestled at the base of Blackcomb Mountain, Four Seasons Resort Whistler offers superior accommodation and services. Guestrooms and suites are generously sized and capture the spirit of a luxurious mountain residence, with cosy wood interiors and gas-burning fireplaces. All accommodations offer superb views of the mountains and valley from their balconies, while well defined work areas allow guests to remain productive, backed by the latest communication and entertainment technology. The generously spacious two, three and four-bedroom Residences are ideal for family vacations or longer stays and boast fireplaces, gourmet kitchens and a private, furnished terrace.

Named after the number of feet that Blackcomb Mountain towers above the village, Fifty Two 80 Bistro & Bar celebrate their alpine location with glorious views of the mountains from a cosy fire-lit setting. Fifty Two 80 Bistro welcomes guests in a casual and lively atmosphere, offering specialties such as fresh seafood from the Pacific coast and Canadian prime beef off the grill. The carefully selected wine list features a boutique collection of British Columbia wines. Summertime brings wonderful outdoor dining on the spacious patio with an outdoor wood-burning fireplace. Fifty Two 80 Bar is a welcoming lounge where tempting bar plates, cocktails and wine by the glass are served through the day, as well as menus from the Bistro.

Whistler's scenic location is reflected in the lavish treatments provided at the Spa, which use only the most natural products from the sea and mountain. The spa provides luxurious facilities for treatments and therapies in 14 treatment rooms, including a Vichy shower, hydrotherapy, massage, couple's, manicure and pedicure room. Off site, Whistler offers a host of outdoor activities ranging from hiking and fishing to more radical sports such as river rafting or summer glacier skiing and snowboarding.

Whistler is arguably the best mountain golf resort in the world. Playing conditions in summer are near perfect, with temperatures ranging between 20-25 Celsius and the golfing season extending from May to October. The annual winter break when the course is snowbound provides for lush greens and fairways in summer. Four Seasons Resort offers golf packages at three of Whistler's four courses..
