What our guests have to say:

"Okanagan Mountain Retreat is very nice, spacious and very pet friendly! We had an awesome stay, it is very peaceful and our doggy was very happy running around the garden." - September 2024

"Great place to spend a few days with some friends after long days of biking, hanging out and exploring the Vernon area. All the guests complimented how cute and cozy was! Thanks again!" - August 2024

“Silver Star Stays was very responsive and helpful with all of our questions and concerns. The home was very clean and cozy, and had a “middle of the forest” feel while still only being 10 minutes from most anything you need in Vernon. Lake country was about a 35-40 minute drive to a few different wineries and nice lakes. Would definitely stay here again!”- August 2024

"Our stay at Okanagan Mountain Retreat was so lovely. We were meeting up with old friends whom we hadn't seen in a while and wanted somewhere private with great indoor and outdoor space just to hang-out and visit. We also wanted a place that was close to restaurants and grocery stores so we could stock up or go out to eat as we pleased. And, we wanted a place that would accommodate our 100 lb. dog. Okanagan Mountain Retreat checked all these boxes and then some. We ended up not going out much at all because the house and grounds were so beautiful, relaxing and peaceful. We enjoyed walking our dog on the trails and were grateful for the air conditioning, as he has a full fur coat. The beds are comfortable, and the kitchen well stocked. Thanks again for a great stay - we will return!" - July 2024

"I highly recommend this quaint and beautiful log house. Six family members and two poodles stayed in this pet-friendly home. It was warm, comfortable and cozy. The home lacked for nothing and we were able to make a real fire in the fireplace in the evenings and enjoy the hot tub after skiing. We explored the trails in the woods with the dogs. It was close to Silver Star Ski Resort and to the town of Vernon. The home had all of the technology we are used to, such as wifi and a big screen TV, for movie watching in the evenings. The beds were comfortable. The kitchen was well-equipped and we were able to prepare some memorable meals. The host was very responsive. This is a great place to stay." - January 2024

"We booked the Mountain retreat property for the month of February 2023. First impressions are that the property is well maintained and care and thought have been put into making sure that guests have all the amenities they need to have a wonderful stay. Having space to have our dogs with us was a big plus, whether they were out on the trails up the hill behind the house, or on the porch they were happy with having a place to roam. We have very responsive dogs that stick pretty close to the house. When we did occasionally leave the property without them we opted to put them in the oversized fenced area so they could be safe outside but also comfortable. Honestly the owners have put a LOT of thought into making things accessible for those traveling with pets. We did not give our dogs free rein in the house but rather chose to keep them contained- less mess for us to clean up! The log home is cozy and it is SO quiet, we rarely heard road noise, occasionally there was a dog barking in the distance but nothing that interrupted us. We loved the 2 person hot tub - it was the perfect size for our group and it was easy to run. Its location at the back of the house is perfect for a midnight soak and look at the stars! Having access to laundry facilities onsite was huge for us and if you were traveling with children that would be a huge bonus. There are three large bedrooms and floor space for more if need be. The kitchen has everything you would need. The furnace keeps everything warm. We were in the area to ski and hike and the location of the house is perfect for both. 12 minutes up the hill to Silver Star and 5-7 minutes down the hill to Vernon. We loved the location. We felt very safe here. There is ample parking available, a fire pit with lots of wood if you want to have an outside fire. We will be back!" - March 2023

Great location for a mini friend's getaway

We had a great stay at the house. Check in was seamless, the house was spotless and there was lots of room for 2 couples. The location was great for exploring Vernon, we biked around Kalamaka and Woods Lake and had a lovely hike, both were only 20 minutes from the accommodation. The house had everything we needed to eat dinner in and there is a grocery store just a few minutes away for any supplies you may need. Highly recommend.

incredible get away!

This property has it all! Quiet chalet on a wooded property, incredibly spacious, all our needs were completely met. We brought along our Lab and we were blown away by the TWO outdoor very large enclosures and all the trails across the large property. The two person hot tub was fantastic, the house was clean and very user friendly. 15 minutes up the hill and 10 minutes to groceries/ gas back into Vernon made it the perfect proximity for us. Overall everything was great and we'll be looking to book again. Can't say enough about the place. Wonderful winter vacation for our family!

A perfect 5-star retreat!

We had an incredible stay at this beautiful mountain log house! It was impeccably clean and impressively well stocked, making us feel right at home. The open concept layout, well-equipped kitchen, outdoor hot tub, and spacious deck were all fantastic. It’s also dog friendly, which was fabulous for our furry family members. Tucked away in the serene woods, it truly was the perfect relaxing getaway. 5 stars all the way! We hope to come stay again.

Great cabin in the woods

We loved this cabin the minute we arrived. Very inviting and so many places to sit outside. Lots of happy surprises like fitness equipment, hammock, secret porch off fitness room and 200 meters to a fabulous hike at BX trail. Excellent place for a family. Dog friendly with dog towels. The only issue we had was there is no screen on thr primary bedroom deck so could not sleep with doors open.

Very cozy and comfortable cabin!

We enjoyed our stay at the cabin. The wood fire and comfortable furniture made for a relaxing weekend. The large kitchen made it easy for the gang to cook in. The deck does require some repairs - the two large holes in the deck surface was a concern especially after dark. Besides this, we truly enjoyed our stay.

Nice and Cozy Cabin

We loved this place! Very clean, cozy and private. The only thing that would hold us back from visiting again is the cancellation policy. The trip was non-refundable. I found it stressful leading up to the trip knowing that we couldn’t get our money back if we needed to cancel. Otherwise, I would recommend it.

Nice pet and kid friendly stay close to everything

The reasons it did not get 5 star: 1. owner occupied. To their credit all their stuff was removed, but their pictures were everywhere. We took them down carefully as that was a bit awkward. The bathroom had hair on the counter. Not a huge deal, but didn’t feel professionally cleaned on arrival with dirty dishes in the dishwasher too. 2. Lack of matching dishes: at the rate we paid I expected full nice sets to host the family. 3. Insufficient directions on how to run the quirky dishwasher, flu on the fire place and hot tub. Thankfully Silverstar was able to get in touch with the owner and sort it out. Reasons we loved it: 1. Space: lots of space as stated on the website. This made it very dog friendly.. 2. Away in nature: we saw a beautiful dawn and another day a full family of deer. 3. Fire place: nice to roast marshmallows inside on a cool day when there’s a fire ban. 4. Quiet: So quiet with crickets or frogs singing outside at night. 5. Close to Vernon: so close to everything 6. Check in and check out: so easy, no extra cleaning required.
