Whistler Creekside Is For Families
Don’t let our world-renowned reputation for endless acres of thrilling terrain fool you, Whistler Blackcomb is also one the best places on earth to take a family vacation.
The hugely popular Whistler Kids Ski School (with a dedicated program here in Creekside) takes advantage of children-only teaching and learning areas as well as starter parks and other kid-friendly areas to develop your child's skiing and snowboarding skills in a fun and safe environment. For those too young to hit the slopes, Whistler Kids Childcare, with a facility right here in Creekside, offers fully licensed childcare programs for kids aged 18 to 48 months and 3 to 5yrs.
Finding restaurants with something for everyone in the family can sometimes be challenging but most restaurants in Whistler Creekside offer children's menus and/or items that even the pickiest eaters will enjoy. Dusty’s Bar & BBQ is a big-time family favorite (until 10 PM when the bar turns into a live music venue) with lots of mouthwatering après and dinner treats that will have you coming back for more. From the classic family breakfast at The Southside Diner and easy grab ‘n go choices at Tim Horton’s to finer dining experiences like the Rimrock Café, there’s no shortage of fantastic family dining out options in Whistler Creekside. Of course, the well-equipped kitchens found in Lodging Ovations accommodations offer families the often attractive option of “staying home” to enjoy a private meal together. With its full-service grocery store (Creekside Market), two 24-hour convenience stores, and a BC Liquor Store, Creekside has everything you need for quickie snacks or full at-home meals.
When it comes to entertainment, both on and off the mountain, Whistler Blackcomb has something for everyone. Enjoy some unhurried time across our vast mountain terrain, experience the amazing Coca-Cola tube park and enchanted Tree Fort and Magic Castle, have a blast on our outdoor skating rink at the Olympic Plaza, take in the awesome (and free!) Fire and Ice Show at Whistler Creekside every Sunday evening starting in December. With tons of activities and one-of-a-kind adventures specially designed with families in mind, it all adds up to a vacation experience your family will remember forever.
