Whistler Golf, Western Canada

Posted by Lori Henry Jun 18, 2008

Golf fans travelling to Whistler are in for a treat. The Chateau Whistler Golf Course is usually lauded as the spot to tee up, but the Adara Hotel is proving they have other ideas. The inventive accommodation in BC has announced it’s newest package: heli-golf off of Mount Currie (Pemberton) and the Big Sky Golf and Country Club.

I’m not a golf enthusiast, but the thought of being escorted by a private helicopter over beautiful BC and plopped down on the peak of Mount Curry to drive balls, doesn’t sound too shabby. Then, play a round at the Big Sky Golf and Country Club and be guided back to Adara Hotel in Whistler. Nice.

The deal has started and will be available until October 1, 2008. Packages include:

• A night’s stay in a Superior Queen Guestroom

• Breakfast at The Mix by Ric’s (to the value of $50)

• Transportation to and from Whistler Village to the heli-port

• A scenic helicopter flight to the glacier on Mount Currie in Pemberton

• Individual drivers for Eco balls and 5 Eco golf balls per person

• Flight from the Mount Currie glacier to Big Sky Golf and Country Club

• Green fees and golf cart at Big Sky Golf and Country Club

• Return flight from Big Sky Golf and Country Club to Whistler

• Dinner at Araxi restaurant (to the value of $250)

Prices are $2,778 CDN for four people ($694.50 CDN per person).
