Pemberton is a village north of Whistler in the Pemberton Valley and has a population of 2,204. Until the 1960s the village could be accessed only by train but that changed when Highway 99 was built through Whistler (then named Alta Lake) and Pemberton.

The climate of Pemberton is very warm and dry in the summertime and mild and wet in the winter. The regulated temperatures are created by the surrounding Coast Mountains

The village is growing quickly and its growth is actually outpacing that of nearby Whistler. Since 2003, the population has grown at a rate of 7.3% (while Whistler has grown at just 0.5%) and the average price for a townhouse in Pemberton in 2006 was more than $40,000 higher than it was in 2003 .

Pemberton also has a small airport, with a runway long enough to handle commuter-sized planes and private jets. Pemberton airport serves as the airstrip for Whistler, which does not have room enough in its valley for an airport, although there are no scheduled flights into Pemberton at present.
