Kelowna

Kelowna is the Okanagan's largest and liveliest population centre and one of Canada's most popular vacation destinations; and this is your opportunity to call Kelowna home. With such a perfect lakeshore and mountain community, it is easy to believe that Kelowna is known to some as the Summer City. Beaches, mountain trails, ski hills, vineyards and beautiful golf courses. If you enjoy outdoor adventures – mountain biking, road biking, wake surfing, skiing, golfing, hiking, - you may never want to leave Kelowna. Downtown Kelowna offers a spectacular landscape of lake, mountains and parks, with all the amenities of a major centre including a wide range of cafés, restaurants and patios to choose from as well as unique shops and boutiques, heritage buildings and modern architecture, art galleries and museums, big name music performers, live theatre, and a dynamite WHL hockey team. Come and experience our four seasons playground and see why life is better here.
