See the best of Whistler from your vacation rental
Whether the snow is falling, or the sun is shining, you'll find plenty of fun on tap in the quaint mountain village of Whistler. In the winter, thrill seekers flock to the region for its bustling ski resort, where you can ski, snowboard, snowshoe, toboggan, and ski jump. There's no shortage of fun once the snow melts, either – warm weather brings excellent opportunities for hiking, mountain biking, golfing, and ziplining, as well as thawed lakes for swimming, boating, and fishing. You'll find scores of vacation rentals, lodges, cabins, and resort hotels sprinkled throughout the area, catering to everyone from solo travellers and large groups, to couples and families.
History
Trade in your ski lesson for a history lesson with a visit to the Squamish Lil'wat Cultural Centre, which honours the region's First Nations tribe. Exhibits celebrate tribal ancestors as they showcase traditional clothing, artwork, and tools used by previous generations. Nearby, the Audain Art Museum also explores the past by highlighting works by local artists, including 19th-century paintings, sculptures, and masks. If you're looking for a general overview of the village's history and culture, the Whistler Museum is the place to be. The museum takes visitors through a timeline of Whistler by using historic photos, multimedia presentations, and interactive displays.

Food & drink
It's fresh – winding through Whistler's culinary landscape
Fresh food is the name of the game throughout British Columbia and Whistler is no exception. For instance, the region is ripe with salmon and oysters, and it's not unheard of to dine on seafood just hours after the delicacy is caught. Side dishes often highlight local fare grown throughout the area, such as wild mushrooms, blueberries, asparagus, and peaches. Whistler also gives you the chance to sample more unusual dishes, including elk burgers and bison strip loins. Bannock is a staple in the First Nations' community, as the tasty fry bread can be served as part of a sweet or savoury dish.
