Fairmont Chateau Whistler Golf Club
Designed by Robert Trent Jones Jr. in 1993
Noted golf course architect Robert Trent Jones Jr. rose to new challenges when he carved the Chateau Whistler course right into the flank of Blackcomb Mountain. This par 72, 6,635 yard course walked away with Golf Digest's Best New Resort Course in Canada award when it opened and has garnered more than its share of awards since. Rushing streams and tight fairways reward control and finesse players.

Designed by Robert Trent Jones Jr. and opened in 1993, this par 72, 18-hole course offers a golf opportunity unmatched in the region. By allowing nature to dictate the path, the course traverses creeks, ponds, stands of ancient Douglas Firs and granite rock faces, which testify to the fact that this magnificent course follows closely the natural state of the rugged terrain. Carved out of the slopes of the Coast Mountain range, with elevation changes of more than 400 ft. overall, this is one course where you'll be using your camera as much as your clubs.
