Nicklaus North Golf Course
This par 71, 18-hole course winds along a gentle valley floor offering you a spectacular setting as your golfing skills are tested to the fullest. Just minutes from cobblestone walkways and street side cafes of the resort town of Whistler, Nicklaus North stands out as one of the great courses in North America. It's no wonder this is only one of a few rare golf courses in the world bearing Jack Nicklaus' name.
Big Sky Golf & Country Club
Located at the foot of Mt. Currie, just 25 minutes north of the world-class resort community of Whistler Village, Big Sky delivers a truly thrilling golf experience.
Designed by award-winning golf course architect Robert Cupp, who also designed famed Pumpkin Ridge, Big Sky features the finest in golf course conditioning with bent grass from tee to green. The course is a classic links design built on gentle rolling terrain that integrates seven lakes connected by a serpentine creek.
Fairmont Chateau Whistler Golf Club
Distinctly different from the other Golf Whistler properties, the Fairmont Chateau Whistler Golf Club offers classic "mountain golf at its finest". Carved from the side of Blackcomb Mountain, this Robert Trent Jones Jr. design features an elevation change of over 400 feet and dramatic elevated views of the Whistler valley. Incredible natural features such as exposed rock faces, mountain ledges, wildlife, ravines and waterfalls are the highlights of this Classic mountain gem.
Whistler Golf Club
Arnold Palmer’s first Canadian design, and home to a truly “Whistler” brand of golf. You’ll sense it the minute you approach the Clubhouse — classic rock and roll is piped out from the entrance, a guest host sporting a wide grin and a friendly attitude greets you, introduces herself, takes your clubs and acquaints you with the Club. For the rest of your day–from the high-five you got from the starter on the first tee, to the Player’s Assistant who tended your flag, to the bartender who commiserated with you at the patio bar after your round — you’ll notice that a round of golf at the Whistler Golf Club is truly something different.
