Went ziplining in Whistler 3 years ago for our 10th wedding anniversary. Time to celebrate 13!
Whistler Creekside, home of Creekbread – wonderful.
Whistler is a great place to visit any time…heading up there at the end of August!

Wow, this place looks amazing!
Whistler has so much to offer.

I would *LOVE* to win a stay at Whistler Creekside. I am DYING to do the big zipline there-I did my very first zipline during the Paralympics and fell in love with the thrill. I’d also love to experience the Peak to Peak. We have so many amazing opportunities on our doorstep here in BC, there’s really no need to go anywhere else! *fingers crossed real hard*
whistler in the summer is the best!
ZipTrek would be one thing I’d like to do at least once 🙂 Creekside is also a nice way to escape the business of Whistler sometimes. We typically got to Creekside when we just go up for the day.
We have been wanting to go to Whistler ever since we landed in Canada last year in October. The mountains stand tall and beautiful and my family and I would love to get this opportunity to be up-close and personal with the spectacular coast mountains of B.C. Thanks!
Love a Whistler getaway any time of year!
I would love to check out a whistler festival this summer!
Love Whistler creekside. Has changed so much over the last 20 years when I used to go up! Just the Husky and small chairlift!
https://twitter.com/write2tg/status/233232231617941504
Zip line, peak to peak – wow! I could really use a change like that. I always go for the “safe” holiday, but this would step it up a notch or three.
Itching for a whistler gettaway – in any season!
Perfect get away!!
This place looks gorgeous! I would love to go there.
This place tooks great! I’d love to bring my family there!
Would absolutely love to win this!
Zip zip ziggy zig ahh…

I love Whistler in the summer, so much to see and do in pure nature – all while staying in a cool comfortable bed 🙂 Ahhhhhhh
Would love this getaway! Need a baby moon before our lives are turned upside down 🙂
Fingers crossed!
Great time for some luckey couple!
looks like a nice get away.
Beautiful pictures would be a great get away. Thanks for a chance to win 🙂
This looks awesome!
Another great giveaway. Thanks
Sounds like a great place.
It’d be great to win these, as that would let me experience Whistler Creekside in summer, I’ve only seen it in winter!

I have done the zip lining at Grouse, but I think Whistler’s ziplining looks longer in duration. I did not know there is paddle lessons near by there as well. Versatile Whislter for summer and winter.
It would be great to spend a couple of nights in Whistler!!!
Can’t wait to go back to Whistler!
I’d like to do some hiking in Whistler.

This is quite the dream prize. I consider myself well-travelled but inexperienced like so many others in exploring my own backyard. Happy to see you are encouraging BC residents to discover the outdoors that exist right outside their door.
Anytime, winter, summer, spring or fall, is a great time to visit Whistler

I would love to win this Whistler getaway for three reasons: (1) I have not had a summer getaway yet; (2) I have not had the opportunity to go on the Tree Trek Tour; and, (3) ziplining just sounds like a whole LOT of fun! 🙂
That place looks amazing and it would be great to stay there after our ziplining trip and visit to the vodka ice room!
Was able to take the family once to Whistler in the summer a few years back. They’ve wanted to return ever since. We had a great time.
If I was to stay in Whistler, I would whistle every day.
Oh my wouldn’t this be a treat !!!!!!!
Awesome would love to win
