About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Looking for a spectacular stay in the Okanagan at your own 'mini resort'?!

This home has 3 bedrooms, each beautifully appointed with their own full bath (plus a half bath off the main upstairs hall and one in the pool house). Living room, dining room downstairs bar and tv viewing area. There is a tv room off the main hall (could easily be made up into a sleeping area for children). Lots of room for the whole family, two families or a group stay!

During the summer enjoy the extra large pool and gorgeous views of Okanagan Lake. The outdoor kitchen makes entertaining easy and there's always croquet or bocce ball on the lower lawns after you've had enough swimming! If you time it right you might even have a chance to indulge in some cherries right off the tree. Kin Beach is a short walk down the hill, it includes a large playground and shade areas. We are located 10 Minutes from the city centre and there is a full service grocery store and restaurants within a 5 minute drive. A world class golf course up the hill (the Rise Resort) on the right, enjoy viewing acres of vineyards on the drive into town. It has it all!

The 'Scenic Sip' wine route is just down the road along the scenic lake shore - fabulous vineyard tours and world class restaurants. Vineyards and restaurants are open all year round and are a perfect way to enjoy a patio lunch while taking in the views.

We look forward to welcoming you to Vernon and all the very best the Okanagan Valley has to offer!

A group of teammates reunited to play in a soccer tourney over the May long weekend. The place was perfect for us and unfortunately, the weather did not cooperate so we could not enjoy the pool but the area is beautiful. Thank you for the hospitality and we had a great time. Jacquie

Fantastic
The house itself is very comfortable and well-stocked, but the jewel of the property is the outdoor space and amazing pool with a view. There were deer visible nearly every day, tons of birds to watch overhead, the perfect temperature of water in the pool and an impressive outdoor kitchen with all the bells and whistles. Very close driving distance to anything you could ever need. Highly recommend.

Wonderful family vacation spent at this property. Outdoor area with the pool and the amazing view allowed us to spend most of the day outside. Inside is very well stocked with everything you need, and bedrooms all with en-suite bathrooms were great. Highly recommend for a family vacation!

Amazing View/Pool
We stayed at the property for one week and had a blast. The highlights for us was the amazing views and back yard. We used the pool (which was heated and really nice for our little ones) daily and spent most of our time in the back yard. The house was also really well appointed and had bathrooms in each bedroom. We will be back if heading back to Vernon.

Girls get away
The house was perfect for a group of ladies. We loved that each bedroom had their own bathroom. The home is stocked with every kitchen item you would need. This was the best stocked home we have ever rented. This home was chosen for the pool area and it did not disappoint. The pool was heated perfectly and was the highlight of our trip. The owners had multiple floaties for us to use which was wonderful to relax on. The different outdoor sitting areas were perfect to enjoy the sun or the shade. The host was very open to communication, shared information with us and was receptive to ensure our stay was the best it could be. Would definitely book this home again.

It’s All About The Pool and the View
Stayed at “The Pethick House” for a week. First of all Alana and Mike are very friendly people and made us feel welcome right from the start. The view of the lake from the amazing pool area is nothing short of spectacular. The house is exactly fully stocked and leaves you wanting for nothing. We did have a water leak issue on our last night and Alana was super apologetic. We would definitely stay here again. Greg & Kim.

Wonderful stay!
My wife and I have just returned from a 3 week holiday at Alana and Michael's property in Vernon. During our stay we were joined, at different times, by some of our children and grandchildren. Everyone had a fabulous time! The highlight of the property, is it's huge outdoor space. There is an oversized heated pool with a large shallow part for young children and a deep end for adults. Surrounding the pool you will find two large covered areas. One is an outdoor kitchen and the other a sitting area big enough for 7 people. It is equipped with lights, a ceiling fan and a fire table. The view of the lake and surrounding hills is simply breathtaking, one of the best in the Okanagan valley! The house is very well equipped and the three bedrooms have their own ensuite bathroom and very comfortable beds. Alana and Michael, thank you for sharing your beautiful home with our family. You were gracious and accommodating hosts! We hope to be back in the not to distant future! Warm regards, Karen, Pierre and family Calgary, AB

Alana's house is the perfect place for a weekend getaway. Check in was easy and Alana was attentive and made sure we had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable. Her place is truly a hidden gem and don't get me started on the view from the backyard... wow oh wow! No complaints - everything was amazing and as pictured. 100% recommend!

Beautiful house with breathtaking view
This is a spacious 3 bedroom, 3 bath ½ house, located in a beautiful neighborhood that is close to everything you want to do in Vernon . The home is well appointed with linens, towels, paper products, soap, laundry detergent and a well outfitted kitchen. Actually you’ll find everything you need in this house. What we loved the most about this place is the outdoor, there are lots of sitting space, heaters so you can stay outside till very late in the night. There is big pool with amazing view of Okanagan Lake. Too bad we visited Vernon in May so the water in the pool was too cold. Alana was very helpful and tried to make our stay a great experience. We will come back for sure!
