Whistler Travel Tips
Hwy 99, also called “The Sea to Sky Highway”, is a beautiful road which connects Vancouver to Whistler and beyond. It is also a route that can receive large amounts of snowfall during the fall, winter and spring months. If you are not familiar with driving in snowy conditions or don’t have good tread winter tires, we strongly recommend leaving the driving to a professional and booking a private transfer or shuttle service from Vancouver Airport. If you are renting a vehicle in Seattle or Vancouver, be sure to insist that the vehicle is equipped with winter tires. During stormy conditions, the police will sometimes close the road to all vehicles except those with winter tires. Weather can change very quickly in the Sea to Sky Corridor so please be prepared.
Parking for one vehicle is available at every property we manage. Most parking is underground with maximum heights ranging from 6’7″ to 7′. Over-height vehicles including those with roof top racks or boxes may have to park in the Whistler over-height underground which costs approx. $30 per day. Some of our rental properties provide visitor parking for secondary vehicles on a first come, first serve basis which may be difficult to secure during busy times. Please Contact our office and speak with one of our staff if you have specific parking questions related to your Vacation Property.
