Ideally located on the shores of Osoyoos Lake, Osoyoos is a small geographic area that provides our visitors with big value. Certainly the traditional summer vacation by the lake is still sought after, after all we have the warmest fresh water lake in BC right here but now our consumers want so much more. This region accounts for 56% of all vineyards in all of BC so our guests can spend time sampling some of the best wine in the world or be challenged by our championship golf courses. For the hiking and biking enthusiasts you are never far from enticing walking trails with stunning view scapes.
We look forward to welcoming you to our community – Come play our greens and spend a little quality time with our reds – it’s a holiday that will give you special memories. When you are ready say the mystical words…Oh Osoyoos! Then drive in with your top down.
