What campers are saying about their experiences
My 15 year old son attended a Core Camps session during Spring Break 2023 and loved it! His snowboarding skills/technique improved significantly and he was very excited about the new tricks he learned. He loved the independence of staying in the Core Camps house with other teens. The house is very clean and safe and there are adults there too. Everyone was friendly and responsible. The camp is extremely well-organized. Turner, the camp owner, has thought through every detail. He provided excellent communication on logistics and he responded quickly to my questions. I highly recommend Core Camps!
If you have ever for a moment considered getting some lessons to improve your riding or wanted to meet some other people just as in to snowboarding as you, I’d highly recommend signing up to core camps. My friend and I booked pretty late so we weren’t able to go for the premium option, however, that didn’t mean we didn’t still have the best time ever. We got some of the coolest instructors, got to explore both mountains and learn everything we wanted to in 1 week. We also got extremely lucky that it was pretty much only ever 2...

Turner and the team at Core Camps were simply amazing. Everything from initial inquiry, to booking, to pre trip preparation, to the trip itself, was extremely well organized. Turner was very communicative and helpful in getting me ready for camp. During my stay, he was very involved in the day to day activities and was super fun to hang out with. The atmosphere and culture he has created in the house is one that is warm and welcoming - these are lifelong friends that I have made. I also watched my skill improve drastically - going from Level 3 skier...

Step out of your comfort zone and sign up for a week or two or three! Then look forward to coming back as soon as possible. It takes a lot to say hey, I am heading to Whistler by myself, to take snowboarding (or skiing) lessons, live with a group of people I do not know, have a roommate or two! Just do it! You will be very proud of yourself and your skiing or boarding will improve like never before! It’s your turn to learn! Turner knows how to look after you whether you are 15 or 59! The...

10/10 two weeks at Core Camps! My skiing drastically improve in two weeks and the accommodation was beautiful, clean and perfectly located. It was so fun to be around like minded people who enjoyed the skiing/snowboarding lifestyle and brought a fun and social vibe to the experience. Turner was attentive, quick to respond to any questions or concerns, and genuinely cared about everyone having a positive experience. Highly recommend!!🤘⛷️🏂
Stayed for a week at the Core Camp log house, for the beginner camp. I went into it never having done any snow sports, and came out being able to do turns. Turner and Jordan were great hosts, and the mix of campers from all over the world, with different levels of skill, was an integral part of the experience. It was the coldest week on the mountain for decades and the beginner hills were still super packed. Fortunately the Whistler coaches were great, especially Steveo and Rowan. Looking forward to revisiting every year.
I took 2 weeks of classes this past winter, and couldn't recommend them more! Haven taking classes at both this and the other Whistler camp, I felt I received more personalized coaching and attention from Core Camps coaches and staff. This, I think, is mostly due to having 1 coach throughout who really got to know me and understand my level and goals vs 5 coaches over the course of a week. Jordan was an incredible coach. I had wanted to learn rails for years but never had the courage to go beyond wide boxes. But within a few days...

I joined the Core Camps gang for 4 weeks in total last season and cannot recommend their awesomeness enough. Turner and the coaches are great tutors, have incredible knowledge of the mountains, can tailor your experience to the snow conditions that you're dealt, are passionate about snowboarding and helping people improve and are all round awesome people and really fun to hang out with. I'll be joining them again as soon as I can!
I would recommend Core Camps to anyone who loves snowboarding and looking to build their skills no matter what level you are! I progressed so much in the 2 weeks I was there than I ever had in the 5 years of riding I had under my belt. Everyone on the camp cheers you on & pushes your limits giving you the confidence to try things you would never attempt when riding on your own. On top of that I got to meet an amazing group of like-minded snowboarders! Turner is an absolutely wonderful host - and the personal touches...

I booked a 5 week camp with Core Camps through February and had an unbelievable and unforgettable experience. The coaching staff were amazing. I was able to spend time with 3 different snowboard coaches Jordan, Ollie, and Josh, and not only did they all help me progress more than I ever thought I would, but were top blokes. Every day was a guaranteed laugh. It was a perfect balance between the technical, and pure enjoyment. Turner does an amazing job at facilitating this and was so involved through the camp. He personally helped me get my snowboard instructing certificate and...

Turner runs a fantastic cam with the help of his highly experienced coaches. You won't find a better camp in Whistler! If you want to improve and be pushed out of your comfort zone in a safe manner then Core Camps is the best option. I have done two camps and their service and experience is always top shelf and most important consistent.
I spent 2 weeks with core camps and had the best time. Turner and all involved took care of everything which was all organised perfectly and the house was lovely and in a brilliant location. I cannot recommend a stay with Core Camps enough and would love to visit again!
We had a great week with Core Camps this March - the house setting was chilled out, location convenient, and organization first class. No hitches all week. I think my skiing even improved a bit.
I joined 2-week snowboard camp. It's one of the best moment of my 10-year riding. Tuner, the owner, is super nice, kind, and very supportive. All instructors are great in teaching, guiding, and also photo shooting. LOL!! Whistler Blackcomb mt. is huge w/ many different cool terrains & awesome view. Most importantly, I got to ride w/ a group of people who are in a similar level of riding & same level of snowboard loving!! Join Core camp, You will not only get to learn w/ great instructors, ride in an awesome resort, but also get to know wonderful people...

If you are a solo frother and Whistler is on your hit list, or you are looking to come back and you can only arrange a trip on your Pat Malone. This is the place, also a great place if you have a group of mates with mixed abilities. No more waiting at the lift line for your mate to finally make their way down. Turner is great in matching up abilities and make sure you be honest on where you are at, because some weeks there maybe more beginners or advanced, so be sure to ask. Sometimes there are...

I honestly never expected to have this much fun, Core Camps is legitimately the best week I ever had. It seemed like a hoax because of all the five star reviews, but now I understand them. This camp really does live up to its reviews, if you are looking for a great ski or snowboard trip this is the way to go. 👍
I had an amazing week with core camps! Even though I signed in very late, Turner was very helpful from the first moment on and everything was perfectly organised and set up. I didn’t have to worry about anything and every day I experienced new and great things there. The ski lessons were very good and it was amazing to ski in Whistler! I loved the premium accommodation, I spent the week in, too. It was very close to the village and very comfortable, cozy and nice there. Every time after the full day, I was excited to return to...
