About this property

A PIECE OF PARADISE

Wake up each morning in paradise and enjoy a luxurious stay in our beautiful property in the sunny, south Okanagan. Located in the middle of wine country this lovely, large condo is fully equipped for all your vacation needs. A sandy beach for swimming or relaxing, a grassy sitting area, playground and spray park are a one-minute walk away from your door. You will be steps away from hiking and biking trails, fishing, boating, bird watching, restaurants, coffee shops, liquor stores, antique stores, a library, post office or pharmacy ... and only minutes away from wineries, flea markets and of course, the famous Tickleberry's Ice Cream Store.

Okanagan Falls is a quaint, little town located on scenic Skaha Lake ten minutes south of Penticton. It's far enough away from everything, yet in the middle of anything you want to do. It has one of the mildest climates in Canada and is known for warm dry weather and high annual hours of sunshine. Come to relax, play or ski ... it is a sun worshipper, beach bum, and golfer’s paradise and has great winter weather.

With the largest square footage in the complex and two outdoor patios, there's plenty of room to spread out and relax. Our condo is a bright and spacious end unit overlooking the park with Skaha Lake in the background. Being on the main floor is much cooler in summer and when it's chillier outside, there's a gas fireplace and fireplace fan to circulate the air and keep you warm. As well, the park is our backyard. We have been told we have the best location on the property ... and we agree! We love our little piece of paradise and hope you will too.

Enjoy the Okanagan winter, spring, summer or fall! You only need to bring your suitcases and settle into this modern, well-appointed three-bedroom condo.

Amazing Stay
We had an amazing stay at this beautiful property in Okanagan Falls. The building location was fantastic with easy access to the beach, trails and other local sites. The condo is perfect, well stocked, comfortable and well maintained. The hosts were incredible - Nola and Murray have thought of everything needed for an easy stay, and communication was great from start to finish. We hope to return next summer!

About the host

Hosted by Nola and Murray Gowers

Host profile image
We are retired and try to spend a bit of time each season at our little piece of paradise. Since we bought this, we have been slowing upgrading things to provide an enjoyable and relaxing spot for your vacation. We are proud of our home and are very happy to share it with you.

Why they chose this property

We love our Okanagan Oasis! Even though we are Albertans, this area holds a warm spot in our hearts and we feel blessed to own a place here. We camped with our parents through the Okanagan and this is where we chose to bring our children camping. Our home is close enough to many activities, but far enough away to feel relaxing and calm.

What makes this property unique

There are so many wonderful activities close by and the weather is impeccable. The lakes are clean and refreshing, you can pick fruit off the trees, go wine tasting, ride your bike along the Kettle Valley Rail Trail into Penticton, or relax in the sun at the beach or by the complex pool. Enjoy the park view from either patio or take a stroll through there.

But why just come in the summer? If you like to spend time on the slopes, bring your family and enjoy skiing, snowboarding or toboganning in our milder winter climate.
