This fabulous location can't be beat! Sit on the best beach in Kelowna and easily stroll to downtown. And now that the home has been newly renovated there isn't a finer home in Kelowna to spend your vacation.
Enjoy the large, private sand beach on Okanagan Lake just north of the marina and Wildlife Sanctuary. You and your family will love this! The level lot is safe for kids and seniors. It's rock-free and has shallow water which warms up nicely in our bay.
Calling all nature lovers! We are right next to a wildlife sanctuary, so you can sit on the deck and watch the ospreys, ducks, otters and even deer meander by. This also begins the lovely waterfront boardwalk to downtown. Walk, roller blade or bike to free outdoor concerts, shops and restaurants.
It cannot be stressed enough how special this location is. We are the first house on the first private beach just north of downtown in the Cultural District. We border the wildlife sanctuary and have our own private beach and lake access. Our outdoor toy chest has sand toys, beach balls, bubble makers, beach balls and badminton.
Relax in our tastefully decorated vacation home with expansive windows to take in the view. BBQ and play on our spacious deck and lawn. Our modern kitchen has all the conveniences you need to cook, entertain or revel. The dining table seats eight and the breakfast bar seats four. Outdoor dining is our specialty. Eat in shade or sunlight as you watch the yacht races, then the sunset.
We are thrilled about our new whole home air purifier system. Relax and be reassured the air you breath is clean.
All four bedrooms have queen beds and one has an extra single mattress if needed.
The expansive sundeck wraps around the entire width of the property with 2 sets of patio doors to the great room and another patio door to the master bedroom. However, you may want to end the day at the water's edge watching the sun go down.

About the host
Hosted by Judy Schnarr
I am an optometrist, who lives and works in the Lower Mainland of BC. My daughter and I enjoy exploring places and savouring our time at the Beach House.
Why they chose this property
After moving from Waterloo, Ontario, to BC, in 1985, our family fell in love with Kelowna. And who wouldn't? A beautiful clean lake, wine country, awesome hiking/biking, great ski resorts and a vibrant cultural district lured us.
In 1997, when we came to buy, our realtor let us in on a secret. The beach he lived on was the best in the area...sure, we said...But he was right. After visiting numerous, rocky, pebbly, marshy waterfront areas, we fell in love with Manhattan Point beach. When the first house on the beach, right next to the green space came available, our dreams were answered.
Since then we have been enjoying The Beach House ourselves, a little bit, and sharing it with select visitors from around the world a lot!
The indoor renovation of 2016 opened up the great room, expanded the view of the wildlife sanctuary, and gave us a gorgeous chef's kitchen. With the addition of new beds the house is ready for the most discriminating guests.
What makes this property unique
When I'm lucky enough to be staying at the beach house, I love to have breakfast on the deck while watching the wildlife in the green space next door. Then a power walk along the boardwalk takes me to my favourite tea bar where I people watch for a short time.
The day may include boating, wine tasting, and definitely swimming. After pursuing our various individual activities for the day, we all come together for dinner. We may eat in the sun or put the table under the shade tree. My favourite night is Wednesday because that is Regatta night and we watch the spinnakers fly as we dine.
I prefer to be at the water's edge when the sun goes down. If I stay there until it darkens a bit I can make out the beaver swim by on his way to the creek.
