Clean cottage equipped with all the essentials including bbq & gas fire pit on patio. 10 min walk to lake that was not too busy & 2 min walk to pool. Highly recommend and would stay here again.
Couldn’t have asked for a better summer getaway! Cottage was clean and well appointed. Beach was sandy and the lake was wonderful. Kids and parents all enjoyed!
We had a really wonderful time in our Osoyoos Cottage rental. It is extremely well appointed, including games, bikes, a wagon to help haul items to the beach, a fire table, beach towels, comfortable beds and kitchen with every gadget or utensil you might need! The sun room was perfect for group breakfasts. The outdoor seating hosted many chats and the whole cottage is very thoughtfully decorated. Thank-you for a truly lovely vacation experience!
The cottage was beautiful. Bedrooms were nice and large and the cottage had everything we needed. Loved spending time out in the outdoor seating area and the screened in sun room. Great proximity to clubhouse/pool and the lake. The hosts really made sure our stay was great. Thanks!
Our group of three couples absolutely loved staying at Russell's cottage. Unfortunately, the weather didn't allow us to fully enjoy all of the amenities (beach, pool etc.), but the extensive outdoor space and cathedral-ceilinged great room were perfect for full evenings of conversation with old friends. We'll definitely come again.
The cottage was spacious, well appointed, well maintained and the kitchen was well equipped. Overall, we enjoyed all of the comforts of home. The owner was very responsive to our communication. We plan to return.

Beverly & Ken were awesome guest and are welcomed back at anytime.
We had a fantastic three-day stay in this pristine and comfortable house, enjoying wine tastings at nearby Burrowing Owl and La Stella and the fantastic water sports (seadoos and a pontoon boat) at Wake Pilot. The home was clean and comfortable - couldn't have asked for more. Thank you!
We just got back from our stay at this house and wow, we were blown away how clean and well appointed the house was. We could not have asked for better. We felt right at home. Russel was very organized and communicated all important details before, during, and after our stay. I would definitely not hesitate to stay here again. Thanks, Russel!

Devin,
Thanks for staying at our cottage, we endeavor to make our guest feel in their own home, but your review was more than generous.
Wish to see you back soon.
Cheers.
We had a great time at Russell and Lorraine's cottage in The Cottages on Lake Osoyoos. The cottage is very comfortable and has every amenity you need for a short or long stay. The screened and glassed porch was wonderful, since the sun warmed it most days.
Russell was great to deal with, and very quick to respond to questions. All in all, a great vacation, and we will definitely return!!

Chuck, thanks for the positive review. Huge thanks too for the help with maintenance around the cottage. We would love to be your host again.
The cottage was beautiful and comfortable with all the necessities and extras too. We loved the window seats and the wide open entertaining spaces. Everything was clean and in good working order. Beach is a little far for elderly or mobility challenged people but otherwise, great location. The hosts made themselves available but we didn’t find it necessary to contact them for anything during our stay. Everything was in order and the stay went smoothly. Really enjoyed our vacation here.
My family had a great stay at this well equipped and homey “cottage”. Presents as pictured, but main floor is even more impressive when you walk in because of an extremely high vaulted ceiling. On site was a nice pool area and beach - overall a very charming complex that was family friendly and close to Osoyoos and many wineries. My girls (10 and 12) asked to come back before we had left, and we have booked a week for next summer. As others have mentioned, the owner Russel is responsive and a pleasure to deal with. Thanks for a nice visit.

Steve,
Thank you for the review & compliments. It was a pleasure to host you and your family, and thanks for the booking next summer. We look forward to your next visit.
Cheers.
We just returned from the most delightful stay at this cottage. Everything was top notch. Very clean, beautifully decorated, everything that we needed plus more. Russell was great to deal with. We had no issues at all. The gated community itself was very nice, quiet and safe and was wonderful for walking outside enjoying the fresh air. Would definitely recommend.
We had a perfect time at this location; the owner was on top of everything. I would stay here again!
