Find the perfect place to stay in Whistler
Some vacation rentals are simply a place to sleep. The Outpost Design Collection is something else entirely. These are Whistler's most beautifully appointed privately owned homes, properties where the interior design, the architectural details, and the overall aesthetic have been elevated well beyond the standard mountain rental experience. Thoughtfully curated furnishings, statement fireplaces, designer kitchens, bespoke lighting, and carefully considered spaces that feel as good to be in as the mountains outside. If the place you stay matters as much as the destination itself, the Outpost Design Collection was built for you.
Every property in the Design Collection has been hand-selected by the Outpost team for its exceptional design quality, attention to detail, and ability to deliver a stay that feels genuinely luxurious without being pretentious. These are homes with character, warmth, and a distinct sense of place, properties that feel unmistakably Whistler while reflecting the vision and personality of the people who own and love them.

A History and Overview of Whistler
Whistler and the surrounding areas hold thousands of years of history as these lands were the home of the Coast Salish First Nations before Europeans arrived, with Whistler serving as a valuable trading post between the Squamish and Lil'wat nations. Many of the hiking tracks around Whistler are actually the traditional routes of the Coast Salish peoples, and you can follow their paths to view nature and the landscape similarly to how they once did. You can also visit the Squamish-Lil'wat Cultural Centre to get a complete grasp of the region's history and identity.
Named "Whistler" thanks to the shrill sound that the local hoary marmot populations make, the early 1900s saw European settlement, first as a small hunting and fishing village, then as a successful mining town until the 1950s turned it into a popular summer vacation spot. The 1960s saw the first ski resort on the mountain open, and then in 2010, Whistler hosted the Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games.
