The Okanagan Valley has a bevy of lakeside cabins for year-round getaways.
Spectacular views, farmers’ markets, wineries, and firepit singalongs await on your Okanagan Valley lakefront getaway. Running along Lake Okanagan from Vernon to the tiny town of Osoyoos, just north of the Canada-U.S. border, British Columbia’s “Lake Country”' is a 4.5-hour drive east of Vancouver. Hot, sunny summers are filled with canoeing expeditions and mountain biking, while snowy winters are all about the world-class ski resorts and backcountry trails. Vacation homes and vacation rentals range from lakeside log-cabin resorts to birdwatchers’ hideaways with stunning mountain views—all offering varied amenities including hot tubs, wood stoves, saunas, and wifi. Many lakeshore cabin rentals offer boat and paddle board use or rentals, plus access to a slew of recreational equipment such as bikes, kayaks or cross-country skis. With its rolling hills, clear skies and sparkling lakes, Canada’s Okanagan Valley is a special place to visit for a cabin stay, whatever the season.
