About this property

At the Edge of Osoyoos Home

Firethorn Farms is a unique property in the South Okanagan of British Columbia.

Your privacy is assured as you will be the only visitors to this functioning farm of 11 acres with a protected entrance. We use a variety of alternative energy sources such as geothermal, heat pumps and solar power to protect the environment.

The beach has three distinct areas for your benefit as well as a unique beachfront garden. The summer weather is the driest and warmest in Canada as we are situated in the only desert in Canada with an average summer daytime temperature of more than 30 degrees Celsius (90 F).

During the summer months all the local fruits from cherries, plums, peaches, apricots to the fall nectarines and apples can be enjoyed. The local farmer's markets provide an opportunity to discover a wide variety of products.

You will have your choice between a busy active lakefront holiday or the peace and quiet of a private retreat.

Amazing place to stay!
The listing for this property does not do it justice. It is truly a great place to stay. Perfect for family and four legged friends. Everyone that travelled with us really enjoyed their stay. I highly recommend this property. Will definitely plan on returning.

Great spot for a family getaway
The property was everything we expected for a party of 6 adults and 3 dogs. Well stocked kitchen, large screen TV and a great yard that is on the lake. Very confidential as all on its own. Firepit near the waters edge allows for great visiting around the camp fire.

About the host

Hosted by Steven or Anna

Host profile image
My wife and I relocated here to enjoy the warmth of the Okanagan. We were attracted by the paucity of rainfall and the natural beauty of the desert. The nearby water provided summer sports for our children with the proximity for golf and cycling a major attraction. During the winter we are only 30 minutes from skiing and have very little snowfall on the ground. We are thrilled by the opportunity to have our own orchard of cherries and plums with the nearby vineyards and wineries enhanced the agricultural ambience.

Why they chose this property

The weather here is outstanding, for Canada, year round. The nearly limitless recreational opportunities catered to our desire for relaxation. However the orchard gave some respite from the normal day to day work.

What makes this property unique

There is a private beachfront with nearly 2000 feet of freedom from neighbours. The 11 acres of property is landscaped beautifully with the serenity of relative isolation free to enjoy. There are private sunbathing areas, the warmest lake in Canada and a dock for your watercraft. There is access to one of the best golf courses in Canada at Fairview Mountain in nearby Oliver. Hiking and biking paths are readily available.
