“Dozens of golf courses surround the city… and the standards of the clubhouses surpasses anything seen at golf clubs in the UK. Most of them are more impressive than our top hotels.” --Peter Smith, Bunkered Magazine (Scotland), Fall, 2004.

Whistler
Rated by Golf Digest as Canada’s number one golf destination, Whistler is home to four of Canada’s top 100 courses. Trent Jones Jr., Palmer, Nicklaus, and Robert Cupp have each created masterpieces in this magnificent setting. Add the breathtaking mountain
scenery of British Columbia’s Coast Range to the endless choices in accommodation, dining, shopping, spas and outdoor activities for the entire family, and you truly have a golf resort like no other. In addition to hosting the 2010 Winter Olympics, this year, Whistler will host the 2005 Telus Skins Game featuring, among others, Vijay Singh and John Daly.

“This is true mountain golf, with towering snow-capped peaks overlooking every tee-shot year round” -- David de Smith, New England Journal of Golf, Spring 2003

Vancouver Island
A climate so mild, you can golf year-round. The Vancouver Island Golf Trail boasts 10 championship golf courses within a 25 mile stretch of spectacularly scenic coastline. Victoria, with its old-towne charm and gardens is the gateway to the Trail with 2 championship golf courses including Nicklaus golf course mastery at Bear Mountain. The scenic drive north from Victoria unveils a pacific paradise including an additional 8 courses, with some of Canada’s top 100.

“Victoria is a delightful walk about. Outside of town, a drive north will certainly provide some everlasting memories of beautiful countryside and quaint seaside towns. Oh and there is excellent golf to be had as well.” -- Wil Barnes, Affluent Golfer

The Okanagan Valley
Set in the heart of the province, the Okanagan offers one of the warmest and sunniest climates in Canada. Its lush orchards and award-winning vineyards, warm-water lakes and great beaches have made it one of the top vacation destinations in the Pacific Northwest. The Okanagan’s diverse landscape, ranging from rolling desert and rugged canyons to lush orchards has inspired golf architects to craft some of Canada’s finest courses.

“It’s as close to paradise as it gets. Relaxed, relaxing and with good food and beautifully crafted wines, this is class.”  -- David Rochford, Going for Golf (UK)

Kootenay Rockies
The western slopes of the Rockies offer an unparalleled golf experience. Azure peaks capped with snow provide a panoramic sight from almost every golf hole in the region. This is moutain golf at its finest – crisp, clean, pine-scented air, rivers tumbling down rocky mountainsides and miles of forests. First-class resorts provide a degree of luxury and comfort that will allow you to relax after a round on some of the most beautiful and challenging courses you will find anywhere.

“With every shot, your ball soars against a picture perfect backdrop of the Rocky and Purcell Mountain Ranges – a sun-soaked golf mecca.”  -- Phil Tressider, Australian Golf Digest, Sept 2003.
