Ski Vacation Rentals in Beautiful Whistler Canada
Whistler Blackcomb Ski Resort Canada
Whistler, British Columbia
Whistler, British Columbia has two of the best North American ski mountains, Whistler and Blackcomb. It’s located about two hours north of Vancouver on the west coast.

The fun doesn’t stop when the snow begins to melt away. Some of the best mountain bike trails reveal themselves beneath all the snow. Lifts run all year long for both skiing and mountain biking. For the best of both worlds, continue to ski from June to August. Glacier skiing is available in the summertime at the top of Blackcomb Mountain. Take a break for a game of golf or two. Whistler has four award-winning courses. Boutiques, shops, restaurants and cafes abound in Whistler Village. It’s a pedestrian only area, which adds to the charm.
