Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2004
Jinny Lee and John Glavina met in 1984 while developing software. They started their own software company in 1992. In 2004, after having spent 5 years in the wine growing Willamette Valley in Oregon, Jinny and John purchased land in the Okanagan. The land that they purchased is situated below Giant’s Head Mountain in Summerland , BC. Oddly enough, Glavina is a Croation name meaning “Giant Head”. Jinny and John have immersed themselves in viticulture and oenology and hope to make small quantities of excellent wine.

We stayed here for a week in August, 2011 and will be booking for longer for the summer of 2012. Absolutely loved everything about it, John and Ginny included. The views are spectacular and the tranquility immeasurable. We have been recommending it to other people we have met along the way since we left. Highly recommended. Good wine too, John

Another couple, my wife and I had an excellent stay in the Panorma suite. The suite is very private, roomy, well appointed, and you get the feeling you are alone overlooking your own vineyard. The views from the suite itself and from the deck are magnificent. The location is an easy drive to town, to the beach and the perfect spot for taking tours of local vineyards. John and Jinny are the perfect hosts making sure that you are comfortable and have everything you need without ever imposing on your privacy. All four of us are anxious to return for a longer stay.

Thank you John and Jinny! This place was absolutely divine. The view of the lake from the deck was phenomenal. The pictures on the VRBO and their personal website do not do it justice. The deck is a peaceful sanctuary in which one can enjoy the sights and sounds of the beautiful Okanagan countryside. From the comfortable and spacious bedrooms/bathrooms to the deck, kitchen and living room amenities, this place had all the comforts of a fancy hotel, without the price tag. The house was very close to beaches, and to Kelowna and Penticton. To top everything off, John and Jinny were incredibly friendly owners who were kind enough to give us information about unique/locally known places to visit. The only real surprise of our trip was just how truly amazing John and Jinny’s place was!! All of us felt rejuvenated, more vibrant and joyful through out our stay. We intend on returning again, hopefully as soon as August this year. Nina, Nassim, Mohamed and Sterling.

We stayed in the Panorama suite for a week and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The hosts were more than gracious and very considerate of their guests needs. The massage chair was a real winner and the view from the main deck was stunning, the lake one way and the winery the other way. Thanks for a great stay
