Nestled in the breathtaking Okanagan Valley, Kelowna’s unparalleled natural beauty paired with its connection to some of Canada’s oldest and most-awarded vineyards, make it the ultimate cottage country destination in Western Canada.
The city itself has plenty to offer—Kelowna is home to a vibrant downtown, plenty of farm-to-table restaurants, and some of Canada’s freshest markets. You can even take on Kelowna’s wine trail to sort out for yourself what’s truly the best of the best when it comes to Canadian wine.
Just steps from the downtown core you’ll find Okanagan Lake. Is there a better way to finish off a hot summer hike than relaxing by the lake with a cool glass of white wine from the valley? With access to over 40 wineries and stunning views of Okanagan Lake, these five cottage rentals offer the best of Kelowna living.
