About this property

Peaceful Peachland Retreat, guest suite

Our spacious, self-contained guest suite is located on the lower level of our home, where we live, and has its own private entrance, patio, and secluded garden terrace. Relax beneath the handcrafted timber pergola on the charming swing seat, surrounded by colourful hanging baskets, climbing plants, and grapevines—a peaceful place to unwind with your morning coffee or a glass of local wine.

In summer, enjoy outdoor living on your private patio with a barbecue, while in winter you can curl up beside the cozy gas fireplace with a movie or one of our board games.

One of the things that makes our property unique is the variety of outdoor activities available. Guests have access to a large shared lawn featuring a badminton/volleyball net and a selection of outdoor games that most vacation rentals simply don't offer. Adults travelling without accompanying children are also welcome to enjoy our pool table.

Our property borders peaceful farmland, making it ideal for relaxing country walks, yet we're just minutes from downtown Peachland and its beautiful waterfront. Spend the day at the popular Swim Bay with its zip line, diving board, and seasonal lifeguards, then stroll along the lakeshore and enjoy the many vibrant restaurants, cafés, and waterfront patios overlooking spectacular Okanagan Lake.

The kitchenette is well equipped with a microwave, premium air fryer, two-burner cooktop, under-counter refrigerator, chest freezer, coffee maker, kettle, cookware, crockery, and a breakfast bar—everything you need to prepare simple meals.

The price is based on the number of guests.

1–2 guests: Queen bedroom plus a comfortable day bed in a separate sleeping area.
3–4 guests: A second bedroom with two twin beds is opened.

If two guests prefer separate bedrooms, the second bedroom can be made available for a small additional charge.

We welcome children of all ages. However, for longer stays, larger families, or those travelling with several young children, our separate two-bedroom Carriage House, also listed on VRBO, may be a better fit. It features a full kitchen, dishwasher, washer/dryer, and private gardens.

For the comfort, security, and enjoyment of all our guests, only those included on the reservation may use the property. This ensures there is always plenty of room to enjoy the games area and outdoor amenities.

Whether you're exploring local wineries, hiking nearby trails, relaxing on the beach, or simply unwinding in the peaceful countryside, Peachland Retreat offers the perfect balance of privacy, comfort, and fun.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

From the welcome snack and sparkling beverage, to the spacious suite, to the pool table, to the incredible outdoor pool, it was an oasis of peace that we were both looking for!

A Little Slice of Heaven!

We spent a wonderful week in the Carriage House! We enjoyed the spacious accommodations that included everything we needed. Absolutely loved having the beautiful pool so close and all to ourselves, we swam in it everyday! The location of this rental property is perfect, close to both Kelowna and Penticton and there were lots of fun things to do in Peachland as well. We would definitely stay here again and recommend it to all of our friends!

Great accomodation for families with small kids

We, a family of four ( kids 3 and 4 yrs old) had a great time at the poolside retreat. The cottage is very family friendly equipped w/ booster seat, pack n play, kids room w toys and books, outdoor badminton net and obviously the pool. If you are going, make sure to buy some homemade jam from Casper's Corner next door. Many thanks to Gill and Ray for their great hospitality. We hope to be back soon :)

Thank you so much for your kind review! We're delighted you enjoyed the swing seat, pool, and patio area — they’re some of our favourite features too. While the suite is indeed spacious, we do maintain a maximum of four guests to ensure everyone's comfort. Sorry you missed our new handheld magnetic shower, just recently installed — perhaps next time! Thanks again for your thoughtful feedback.

Simply Amazing

My family had such an amazing time at this lovely place. The suite is very cozy, clean and had everything we needed for our stay and more. The swimming pool was the highlight in this lovely home. After a tiring day roaming around Peachland and Kelowna we would finish up our day with a swim at the pool. Anyway Gill was an awesome host have us so much privacy and when we needed battery for the tv remote and extra towels it was instantly delivered at our doorstep. Very nice indeed and we would love to comeback again.

Fantastic Stay

4 of us stayed for 2 nights at the end of a two week road trip. My grandson summed up our stay by saying: "I wish we had spent our whole vacation here." Gillian met us as we arrived and seemed genuinely happy to see us. The pictures, while accurate, do not do the place justice. Little knick-knacks and decorations abound, the beds and furniture are very comfortable and we had all the space we could desire. The kitchen was well stocked with more than enough flatware, cutlery, coffee, tea and spices. The pool area was perfect for a lazy afternoon in the sun. The only potential downside is that it is at the top of a hill and you will need to drive to the waterfront and downtown area. My only regret is that we could not stay longer and I can only give it 5 stars.

Another Paradise Getaway in Poolside Retreat.

We just returned from a week stay at Poolside Retreat. This was our 3rd visit and fist stay at Carriage House. This is a little paradise surrounded by green hills and just a minutes of drive from the Peachland's beach avenue. The place has everything you need and beautiful surroundings. The accomodations is 5 star, great pool, the only place I feel like home. Cleanest bed sheets, towels, kitchen utencils. Lot's of space and beatiful gardens. We traveled with 2 years old toddler and she loves the place. Everytime we go the owner brings in bunch of toys for her to play, which is great and I don't need to bring over her toys with me from home. It is a paradise getaway no matter ou travel with kids or alone.Highly recommend and will retun next summer again hopefully!

Pool side retreat underpromises and overdelivers

My sister and I stayed at Gillian's pool-side retreat during Ironman Canada 2011. I somewhat assumed that since it was still available relatively close to the Ironman dates that it would be over-priced and disappionting for the price. Was I surprised! The photos on vrbo.com do not do this unit justice! It is very, very spacious (much more so than the pictures show) and bright and comfortable. And the pool area is so beautifully landscaped, finished, and serene that we had to stay an additional day just to have the chance to enjoy the pool. We will absolutely be returning to either of Gillian's units again. Thanks for everything!
Response from VrboOwner on Apr 1, 2020
We really admire competitors of the Pentiction Ironman and certainly deserve the best accommodation and facilities, which we are pleased to be able to offer. What a pleasure it was having you and your family stay in the Poolside Suite and also be the first to write a message in our special 'Iron Man Book'

Basement suite on a beautiful property

Gil makes every effort to welcome you and make your stay comfortable. We were surprised that the poolside suite was actually in the basement of the owner's home (other options on this property are separate). This created difficulties as the noise (which was definitely not excessive) was disturbing to the very light sleepers in our family. The owner was responsive to suggestions that this be clarified in the advertisement of the unit, as she wants everyone to be happy with their stay. Kitchen facilities are very limited (hot plate, mini fridge) and there are many rules about use of things within the suite. No amenities included (i.e., shampoo, soap, etc) which is uncommon to similarly priced properties we stayed at during our trip. Beautiful pool and outdoor area.
Response from VrboOwner on Apr 1, 2020
Thank you very much for your feedback on the one night you stayed in the suite. However the pictures which include pics of the kitchen showing appliances and a plan of the suite clearly show it on the lower floor of the house and it is unfortunate you apparently did not view them or read the description. Most other guests reviews mention how quiet it is so sorry you did not feel the same There is also a dispenser in the shower which contains shower gel and shampoo/conditioner and a soap dispenser next to the sink and if you had let me know I would have shown you where they were. However am perplexed how you did not see them ? I value guests reviews and act on them whenever possible but on this occasion, In the future i would suggest you view the accommodation you plan to book thoroughly and contact owners before booking with any queries.

About the host

Hosted by Gill EVans

Host profile image
We have three adult children and emigrated to Canada in 2008, after falling in love with Peachland. In the 2 years we have been here we have made many friends and have embraced the Okanagan laid back and outdoor lifestyle. We enjoy meeting people, hiking, fishing, swimming and skiing. In fact our youngest son was in the British Ski Team for many years. Our favorite pastimes is joining our friends for a drink in a cafe along Beach Avenue and watching the world go by. Bliss!

Why they chose this property

One of the many reasons we chose to buy in the the Okanagan Valley is the climate, It is located at the northern most end of the Sonora Desert and hence has a semi-arid climate, boasting long warm summers and relative mild winters compared to elsewhere in Canada. It is also in an ideal location being in the heart of the Okanagan making it easy to take advantage of everything it has to offer. We also loved the fact that we could be at a ski resort within 15mins in the winter and a major ski resort in just over an hour. We were very lucky to find a beautiful house on a flat acre of land, with a suite and also with a legal Carriage Houses and knew it would make ideal holiday accommodation. We really do enjoy sharing our great facilities with our guests and are greatly rewarded when we see our guests enjoying the pool and other amenities.

What makes this property unique

We were attracted to this property as it was the only we one we saw where we could offer
A pool that enjoys a full day of the sun which is shared by a limited amount of guests thereby find they have it to themselves a lot of the time.
Private patios with no immediate neighbors and private paths to the pool area.
Outside Games area with badminton net set up and other outside toys provided.
In fact, as much as is offered in a five-star hotel, but more privacy at half the cost!!
In the winter we have a cozy gas fire plus a pool table to enjoy (for parties that are all adults)
No Highway noise in a quiet flat area yet close to downtown Peachland
