About this property

4 BR Skaha-Lakefront House-Sand Beach-Dock - 4 Sat-Sat weeks open summer 2023

Booking notes: For Summer dates we only do 7 night rentals - only enter Saturday to Saturday in and out dates otherwise it the property show as unavailable. From Mid September to Mid June, the minimum days are either 3 or 4. The rates quoted by VRBO include up to 8 people and a maximum of 6 adults. VRBO pricing methods don't properly capture extra adult charges if you have more than 6 adults.

Also, I may be able to reduce the rate for lower season stays (Mid October to Mid May) for groups with less than 6 guests - If you have a small group during this period, email for a quote. The rate quoted via VRBO will likely be a maximum.

SUMMARY:
We have a beautiful and convenient lakefront location mere steps from the water on Skaha Lake with a well equipped 4 Bedroom, 3.5 bathroom modern 'upscale' house with a level sand and gravel beach (for the kids), 80 foot dock (for everyone), mooring buoy (for your boat or PWC) and close to all the wineries in the south Okanagan. The water is clear clean and weed free.

The house faces west over the water so you can watch the sunset with a spectacular mountain view and late day sunsets. It is an awesome location and waterfront venue.

Relax on one of the two front decks overlooking the lake or dive off the dock for a swim. Enjoy the breathtaking view and soak up the Okanagan SUN! Modern clean décor and furnishing with comfortable beds will make your stay enjoyable.

There is a propane firepit located on the large waterfront deck in the lakeside yard making it a fantastic family or groups gathering spot.

The house is located a few feet from the lake so it is easy to dive in and cool off or to climb onto your favorite floating mattress or chair. The house is located in the city limits of Penticton and most amenities and shopping is a five to seven minute drive away. The Penticton main beach on Skaha lake is minutes away.

It is a great set-up for 2 families with 2 living areas on separate floors and is an amazing location for 3 (or maybe 4) mature couples.

Book early to avoid disappointment...the house has been fully booked in June through August each of the last sixteen years ! See our calendar which is kept updated with firm bookings.

To all potential clients - FROM MID-JUNE, INCLUDING JULY AND AUGUST TO MID-SEPTEMBER WE ONLY DO 7 NIGHT BOOKINGS FROM SATURDAY TO SATURDAY - sorry no exceptions ! The rest of the year we can do shorter stays with flexible check-in and check-out days.

Please note, for book requests between Mid October and May, please email me for an accurate custom quote - the VRBO pricing model does not allow me to have accurate pricing allowing for lower pricing for smaller groups - best to email me to get a custom quote for this timeframe.

PROPERTY OVERVIEW:
Modern contemporary and luxurious three level, LAKEFRONT HOUSE in the Okanagan. Private sandy beach, large deck and private aluminum dock with a level yard and large boathouse roof deck to hang out on.

Large windows to provide a spectacular view of the lake and mountains. The house is equipped with all the modern conveniences including high quality furnishings, leather sofas, and both central and ductless air conditioning.

Lake and yard access is from the lower level of the house. There is a short flight of stairs down from the level yard to the gradually sloping sandy beach which is ideal for children.

There is a new 80 foot aluminum dock with an L shape at the end and boat bumper rails and lots of cleats for DAYTIME tie up while people are in attendance at the property. There is a mooring buoy for overnight boat mooring or for when leaving the property.

The house has four bedrooms, three and a half bathrooms, with two separate living room areas - over approximately 2,500 square feet. With one King bed and three queen beds, this three level lakefront vacation home can sleep eight people very comfortably. There is a nice foamy available to sleep kids separately in a bedroom if you wish.

The main flooor is level walkin from the garage and is a greatroom concept with a well equiped kitchen, living room and dining room and a powder room bath. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances and gas range.

The upper floor hosts the master bedroom with King Bed and large ensuite bathroom as well as two betweeoms wiht queen beds that share an enuite bathroom.

Now for both summer and winter rentals we do provide full bedding linens and bathtowels for the number of guests specified.

The lower level is walk-out to the lakeside yard and has a large living room with leather couches, 55 inch TV and high quality stereo and the 4th bedroom with full 4 piece bathroom located just outside the door to the bedroom. On this level there is an additional efficiency kitchen including a full size second fridge and countertop - ideal for making your lakeside cocktails. The second fridge is ideal for extra food and beverage storage for our groups.

We generally allow a maximum of six adults (older than 18) or four adults and up to four children (younger that 18). We can make some exceptions for the appropriate type of mature groups. It is great spot for three couples (or with permission for appropriate groups four couples) or two small families. The home could accommodate more, but we do not generally allow groups larger than eight and prefer a maximum of six adults. We do not allow any type of events nor large numbers of additional visitors.

The house as two 55 inch TV's, although we don't know why anyone would watch TV in Penticton in the summer. A high quality stereo iwith JBL tower speakers is located in the lower living room and there is a compact stere in the main-foor great room. Both Stereos have Ipod/Iphone connection capability.

In the summer of 2019, we added a propane fire-pit on the boathouse roof deck for guests enjoyment. This is an amazing feature to have in the lakeside; however, I note that due to extreme fire conditions in the okanagan in the summer, this feature is only available as long as guest do not misuse it and follow the rules of use. We were able to leave it in place all of the 2019, 2020, 2021 and 2022, so as long as guests use it respectfully and within the rules it will be available through 2023.

IMPORTANT: Avoid quote confusion - Your "instant quote" on VRBO may be in US$. If ther is a US$ flag in the upper corner, you are gettin the USD rates. Click on the Rate tab and then select Rental Rates quoted in and change it to Canadian $ to receive the correct quote. You can also log into Homeaway.ca to see the rates in Canadian and you will see C$.

Penticton tourist attractions such as the canal between Lake Okanagan and Skaha Lake, the Kettle Valley biking/hiking trail, water slides, golf, horse-back riding, tennis, beach volleyball courts are all a very short drive away and close by..

Award winning Penticton and Naramata wineries and great golf are in the neighborhood. The house is extremely close to the Wineries in Naramata, Oliver, Summerland, Penticton and the Okanagan Falls. Centrally located to all the best South Okanagan wineries such as Painted Rock, Pentage, Blasted Church, Jackson Triggs, Noble Ridge, Blue Mountain, Liquidity, La Frenz, Hillside, Popular Grove, Dirty Laundry, Desert Hills, Burrowing Owl, Lakebreeze, Kettle Valley, See Ya Later, Etc.

Osoyoos and West Kelowna and their wineries are both less than 1/2 hour drives.

As mentioned earlier, we do not allow events or more than a small number of "occasional" additional visitors above the number of registered guests on the property during the day or evening. So, I'm sorry but no you can't have an additional 6-8 additional people staying elsewhere come hang out on the property during the day. This is just not appropriate for the venue and neighbors.

We do not allow pets of any kind on the property. There are nearby boarding facilities including the PENTICTON PET RESORT for dogs. If a pet (even a visiting pet) is discovered at our home you will be asked to leave immediately, and a forfeiture of your $1000 deposit and the remaining rent will apply.

There is no smoking allowed anywhere on the property!

Note: the dock is removed and stored along with the beachfront chairs and umbrellas in the second half of September and installed again by the middle of June.
