Neighbourhood

Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area

Kelowna (pop 150,000) is the largest centre in the Okanagan Valley, the valley features a 120 km long, narrow lake nestled between mountain ranges. It is one of the most popular tourist centres in British Columbia. Attracting some two million visitors annually there are many amenities: parklands, golf courses, wineries, beaches, hiking, cycling and skiing amongst them. Historically tree fruits have been a strong part of the economy with harvests of apples, cherries, apricots, peaches, pears and plums in their seasons, now vineyards are becoming a prime factor for agriculture with the wines achieving worldwide recognition and the related food scene a corresponding success.

The main highway (97) passes through the city, driving times to Vancouver are less than 5 hours, Calgary less than 8 and the US border less than 2. Kelowna is served by an international airport. The city has an extensive bus system (the local stop is 8 minutes walk from our door) but to fully enjoy the region a car is required.
