Living in Kelowna is Like Living in a Four Season Playground
In Kelowna, you’ll enjoy the best each season has to offer.
Location, Location, Location!
As the largest city in British Columbia’s Okanagan Valley, Kelowna truly has Location, Location, Location!
Located on the eastern shores of Okanagan Lake, Kelowna is situated midway between Penticton to the south and Vernon to the North. (Map Below)
Kelowna offers all the amenities of a major city – fine dining, unique shops and a vibrant cultural life – yet within a 10-minute drive of the downtown core, orchards and vineyards thrive.
Sample the award-winning wines of the numerous internationally-acclaimed wineries, or visit one of several championship golf courses in the area.
Whether you enjoy golfing, skiing, cross-country skiing, boating, swimming, shopping, hiking, water skiing, museums, historical sites or just plain relaxing, Kelowna offers something for everyone.
