We had a great time staying here. Very family friendly and had just about everything we needed. We were grateful for the air conditioning and lake access on the hot days between wine tastings!
The space was perfect. We felt very comfortable. Great opportunity to relax and enjoy some time with our aging parents. We really enjoyed the ambiance of the house and spectacular views of the lake.
We had 4 couples and 4 singles and there was more than enough room for us all! Sound proofing between floors was very good which was appreciated with us having a baby in our group.
Beautiful beach front property near the climbing walls. If we weren't at the bkuffs qe wanted to just stay at the house since it was so beautiful and fun to hang out by the water.
Trish and Ben were wonderful hosts. We had to rebook last minute due to a problem with the other property. They made everything work seamlessly for our group of ten. The views from the property are amazing across Skaha Lake. A great home for a large group to eat and socialize together while enjoying the great outdoors during the day. Thanks.

Wonderful Place for a Family Vacay!!!
Our family of 4 and our friends family of 4 enjoyed a sweet vacation here!!! The lake house was welcoming clean and had lovely charm to it. We had more than enough room to gather or take time to ourselves. There were lots of bathrooms and the kitchen was mostly well stocked.We loved our cozy bed and morning coffees on the deck.Speaking of the deck it had an amazing view and a mister to cool off.We enjoyed our days lakeside at the dock admiring the big willow tree swimming and boating and loving the sunshine.The owners were always nearby to help with anything we needed and were super friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the local wineries and beaches nearby too!!Great summer memories were made in this great vacation spot!!
We had a wonderful time at this house on the lake. We especially appreciated the beach, dock, and paddleboards.
Also the deck overlooking the water. Most of the rooms had A/C. (two bedrooms did not, but as the weather was not super hot, it was tolerable.
The house is older, but reasonably well maintained. One of the bathrooms had cold water only for sink and shower. In the kitchen there were no staples except salt and pepper. Perhaps that is driven by changes since Coved, but you need to bring sugar, any spices you anticipate using. Also there was no sheet pan or lettuce spinner. Other cookware was plentiful.
Beautiful location and perfect for families that like water sports
Our family of twelve (10 adults and 2 kids) and two dogs had a wonderful week’s stay in Penticton. Beautiful views, great location with amazing water frontage which fit our large family well. The house had all the interior amenities we needed and we thoroughly enjoyed the outdoor amenities such as the upper deck and dock. Paddle boards, life jackets and other water toys were provided. We had 2 younger kids that enjoyed the waterfront as the water wasn’t too deep and they had plenty of room to swim around.
As per other reviews, there are many stairs to navigate inside and outside the house which can be an issue. Some of the stairs leading down to the beach were a bit steep and lacked railings. The spiral staircase on the inside can be a challenge and potential safety concern for smaller kids. Also, the kitchen was a bit on the small side for a larger group and does not have a vent or fan for the stove.
The driveway has plenty of room for a larger group with space to park 5-6 vehicles. A couple of things to note, the parking can be a bit tricky as the house is situated on a somewhat busy street.
Thanks Trishia for the two bottles of wine, it went well with one of our family dinners! (and thanks for providing the two stepping stools as well LOL)
The location is amazing. The kitchen is adequate and the sitting area is a bit on the small side.
The house did smell of fish when we arrived and the host did try to remediate the problem, however the smell did linger.
Time flew by as there is so much to do and enjoy at this beach house. It's well set up for easy usage. Things like recycling on the decks, paddleboards and floaties etc allow for a very functional property. Will definitely be back asap.
Beautiful property right on the water. Excellent hosts available whenever you need them. Very close to town, paddle boards, a boat, two docks to swim or fish from. Amazing place and would love to stay again. Everyone loved it
This property is ideal for a family vacation. There were 10 of us and we had plenty of space. The house is an older home with quirky charm. The grandkids loved it!
Having a private beach was amazing! We brought our own inflatables but 2 paddle boards, a small kayak and life jackets were provided. The beach shore was rocky and water shoes were beneficial. The kids spent hours in the water and jumping off the dock. I enjoyed the views and tranquility. It was much better than the busy public beach. We wouldn’t hesitate staying at this property in the future.
A quirky older home, comfortable except for a couple of bedrooms with no AC (we were there during a heat-wave), and the kitchen is a bit small for a large group. Just know that there are a lot of steps up/down to beach level. Overall experience was positive - lived up to the promise of water toys which was super (Paddle boards, floaties, lifejackets, beach toys etc.)! Lots of shady areas on the beach level made it comfortable all day, even when it was extremely hot. Lots of chair/seating options at beach level. All in all - our family had a wonderful time!
We enjoyed our week here and would recommend it to others looking for a lakeside vacation. The house was as advertised, and actually better because they had done some upgrades since the pictures were taken. We brought a jet ski and tied it to the moorage buoy for the week which worked out well. Thank you to Trishia for your hospitality!
Lots of water toys, books and games for kids. Excellent views. Comfy beds and clean throughout. Tricky stairs in some places for the younger ones. Overall it made for a nice getaway for all ages!
Our family of six adults and five children, ages 3 to 10, tries to find a week by a lake each summer. We love swimming, paddle boarding and kayaking and just plain relaxing in a tranquil setting with clean and comfortable accommodation.
Our Penticton week on Skaha Lake could not have been better. Everyone loved their bedrooms. Even in the heat wave, we were comfortable.
Thank you for such a variety of sand toys, water floats, junior kayaks and two brand new paddle boards! We averaged five hours at day in or by the water. Glorious for all!
Bonus: Marina five minutes away for the morning we rented a speedboat and wakeboard. Excellent coffee and bakery at marina.
Our group of 11 people enjoyed our stay - easy check-in and Trisha even brought us extra glasses and towels for our large group on day 1. Private access to lake, paddleboards, and kayaks was fabulous and the young adults in our group took advantage of the watersport equipment, while the older adults took advantage of the inflatable island that we brought ourselves. Temperatures were high with some smoke/air quality issues while we were there, so we appreciated the shade from trees on the lakefront and the AC in the main living areas. The balcony off of the kitchen is an outstanding feature, plus it has a water misting system that was very useful. Of note, with our large group, we were tight on food storage space in the single fridge available; the 2 queen-sized bedrooms do NOT have AC and sleeping was uncomfortable most nights in the heat for the people in those rooms; price seems high compared to some other properties in the area although few can accommodate large groups such as ours with direct lakefront access. Overall, we enjoyed the property, amenities, and our stay.
We thoroughly enjoyed staying at this house. The house has AC upstairs in the kitchen and living room and one room downstairs.
There are many ways to enjoy beach time, swimming, water sports, sunbathing. The host has left floaties for kids (and adults), paddle boards, and wood for fire.
There’s shade and sun areas by the beach and a large patio adjacent to kitchen was very useful for our group dinners.
Very clean house and welcoming host.
Grocery stores are close by too.
Be mindful of the many stairs between bedrooms and kitchen and beach if you have physical limitations.
We hope to book this place again :)
