Neighbourhood

Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area

We live a block from beautiful Okanagan Lake in Kelowna, BC. Swimming and kayaking are steps away, but our city has great green spaces, parks for families, a superb Parks Alive program throughout the summer, and many outdoor festivals. Our city offers outdoor activity in all seasons with skiing in winter months and skating on outdoor rinks, and camping, hiking, boating and biking in all other seasons. E-bike rentals are popular. A great system of bike lanes within the city makes biking downtown easy and safe, as well as a flat, accessible Rail Trail that connects several Okanagan cities/communities. Motorhome/caravan rentals are also fun ways to explore all that "super, natural British Columbia" has to offer.

All within walking distance of our home there are tennis courts (5 min), beach (3 min), a grocery store (20 min), local craft brewery, restaurants and cafe (20 min). In addition, less than a ten minute drive there is a sports complex with gym and large indoor pool with water slides, a public library, golf courses, fruit stands and several wineries.

Kelowna is a city of about 150,000 in the interior of the province, a great base to explore the West Coast of Canada or the US (Oregon, Washington, California) as we have done with our family!

Attractions

Our home exchange - places to go and things to do while staying in our home

The Okanagan Valley is known for its wineries (tours available) and excellent climate for fruit-growing in addition to grapes including cherries (June), peaches (July), and apples (August). The valley's warm dry weather makes it popular with golfers who have choice of over thirty golf courses, and over one-hundred kilometres (sixty-two miles) of beautiful lakes make this region BC's summer playground.
There is a growing arts and cultural community that includes great local dinner theatre (Actor's Studio), outdoor festivals, concerts, local symphony, small art galleries, and an arts centre. Experience an outdoor movie in the summer on the biggest drive-in movie screen in North America at the Starlight Theatre (50 min away) or a unique outdoor summer or winter theatrical production at Caravan Farm Theatre (1 hr drive). There are lots of free activities to do around Kelowna—pick up a brochure and take a self-guided tour of public artworks downtown, take a picnic to a beach or neighborhood park, walk the Mission Creek trail or Myra Canyon tressles.
In the winter, Kelowna is a popular destination for skiers. We have two world-class ski hills within an hour’s drive.
The city of Vancouver is a five hour drive over the Coquihalla Highway and Vancouver Island, voted one of the most beautiful places in the world, is a short 1.5 hour ferry ride beyond that. There are direct flights also between Kelowna and Vancouver/Victoria if you prefer not to drive and Kelowna has an international airport with direct flights to the US, Mexico and other cities in Canada.

A bit further afield (not day trips* but great weekend get-aways):
- 5 hour drive to Vancouver, BC.
- 5 1/2 hour to city of Seattle, Washington.
- 6-7 hours to world-famous Banff & Lake Louise in the Canadian Rockies.

(*That said, we have driven to Vancouver & back in a day to fetch someone from the airport, pick up something at IKEA, or catch a Whitecaps soccer game! But to really explore these great cities I would plan a weekend!)
