OK to STAYcation in the Okanagan

We live in one of the most beautiful places in the world and many of us discovered it by first vacationing in the Okanagan Valley. Here are three reasons to staycation right here at home:

  1. Enjoy what vacations are supposed to be…relaxing
  2. Rediscover the local art, entertainment and history
  3. Reduce our carbon footprint


Need some STAYcation suggestions?  Here are four great ideas:

  1. Go camping: the choices are endless. Okanagan Lake, Kalamalka Lake (try Kekuli Bay Campground), Sugar Lake, Beaver Lake, Woods Lake, Kettle River and more. Bear Creek Park on Westside Road is a family favourite for many locals.
  2. Go to a car show: Peachland on May long weekend, Boyd’s Father’s Day Show at City Park in Kelowna and many smaller shows in Lumby, Vernon, Summerland, and Rutland.  Every Wednesday night at the Grand 10 and Thursdays at A&W westside are hosted by some of the friendliest people you will ever meet. If you don’t have a hot rod or old car, come visit as this valley has some of the finest restorations in the world.
  3. Cycle the Kettle Valley Railway, entering at the Myra Canyon. The bridge trestles are amazing engineering feats. It is quiet and the views are spectacular!
  4. If you love music, go downtown and enjoy Parks Alive for free or take in the music of the Grateful Fed, the Blue Gator, or numerous other venues. Walk through downtown on almost any day of summer and you will experience a festival, art show or street performance.


We locals often forget how lucky we are to live here.  It’s time to rediscover the most beautiful place on earth.
