Absolutely adorable little property and the owner is lovely. We loved the outdoor area for eating meals, even undercover in the rain. Great 3-night stay!
The cottage is really cute and cozy. It’s really clean and comfortable and we really enjoyed hanging out in it after skiing. It’s really quiet with no street noise.
The property is awesome.Alot of nice little touches. Super clean and comfortable. Having the AC on for my arrival was a nice touch. Highly recommend for anyone visiting the Vernon area.
The cottage was so warm and welcoming! From the moment we arrived we felt right at home. It was perfect for our little ski get away. Only 20 minutes to get to Sovereign Lake Nordic Trails and Silver Star resort, close to groceries, and safe and friendly area. We had everything we needed to cook our own meals, and it was very thoughtfully stocked with coffee and tea already and a few more items which really helped! The cottage was super clean, very well stocked with blankets/towels, and the beds were perfect to collapse into after full days of adventure. There is so much in the area to explore. We can not wait to come back!
Our stay at the Creekside Cottage was amazing, as always! As soon as we arrived, we felt so at home, and the fairy lights lit up really felt inviting. This place is magical, the setting is beautiful by the creek, and the feeling I get while staying there is so serene. The beds are super comfortable, the kitchen and living room are great - everything is so nicely designed. Leah and Bobby are such kind and delightful hosts.

Cozy place, clean, silent, well equipped with everything what could be needed. Hosting family was very friendly.
Definitely worth staying, and worth its price.
Can recommend to everyone looking for some calm and nice place to stay!
The hosts are lovely. The cottage is cozy, and comfortable. It was the perfect place to stay for a week of sleep ins, and mellow evenings listening to the chorus of frogs, with some mountain biking, afternoons at the lake, and touring wineries in between.

We had a very relaxing time staying at the cottage which is very comfortable, peaceful and has all the amenities that we needed.
Leah and Bobby (the owners) welcomed us to the property and were very accomodating and helpful throughout our stay. They responded to requests promptly and provided us with information about restaurants and activities available locally for us to explore.
Our faily had a wonderful 5 night stay here. The cottage was beautiful, clean and very comfortable. Well stocked and well equipped -- we had everything we needed! The cottage was a perfect hub as we spend our days exploring the Okanagan.
Bobby, Leah & family were tremendous hosts and great communicators. They made everything incredibly easy.
We can't wait to come back!
Leah and Bobby did everything they could to make our visit so perfect. The cottage is fully equipped, and you could actually live there full-time. The garden and covered patio were a welcome retreat, and being tucked away in the countryside made it very quiet. You can fall in love with this charming cottage!
We loved our stay in Leah & Bobbys beautiful house in Vernon. A quite place just out of town and close to hiking, beach and very good food shopping. The most fantastic host we have ever had. We were spoiled with the best eggs and lots of goodies. Thanks for everything ♥️
We had the most lovely stay at Leah and Bobby’s cottage. Everything surpassed our expectations and needs. Leah and Bobby put lots of work, care and intentionality into making the property clean, cozy and beautiful. The private garden was our favourite surprise, and we hope to visit again someday! Thank you for sharing your property with us Hupps family!
We really enjoyed our stay at Bobby and Leah's cottage. Tucked away in the trees, and with the sound of the creek, we felt so cozy and comfortable there. The rooms are so spacious, the bedroom is super comfortable, and the living room very inviting. We were teleworking from the kitchen table, a perfect set up. The kitchen is also well supplied and spacious.The cottage felt like such a sanctuary, and with the lilacs all in bloom - so magical. Leah and Bobby were very kind and gracious hosts, and we appreciated the eggs and organic apples! We really loved our stay here.
This property was so amazing and the family who owned it, so lovely.
The cottage was immaculately clean and well supplied with linens as well as some basic spices, teas and keurig pods. We were only there for two nights but now wish we had been able to stay longer.
Very private and countryish setting yet only 5 min. from downtown.
Biking mecca for sure and close to Ski Hill!
Great place to stay and kudos to the owners who take care of the cottage as well as raise 4 young boys.!!!
Who, by the way, we only saw as they jumped on the trampoline a good distance from the cottage.
Loved it and hope to be back!
Me and my partner stayed here in July. Leah and Bobby have created an incredible place to stay. While we were there, we never saw any of them unless we happened to pull up at the exact same time. If we needed help, they were able to assist us as soon as possible. The house was stocked with basic supplies, and the air conditioning was a huuuge plus during the hot weather we endured. We enjoyed our stay in Vernon, and hope to be back. It was lovely to stay at the cozy cottage. Thank you!
We absolutely had a great time staying in Vernon at this beautiful cottage. We loved the area! We brought our bikes and had a great time cycling the OK Rail Trail (we parked at Kal Lake and cycled to Oyama for burgers at OKF). We also cycled to the BX Ranch Park for a walk and then up the hill to be rewarded by lovely ciders at BX Cidery.
The Cottage itself was full of thoughtful touches and had a well equipped kitchen. We found the bed very comfy. My favorite part was when Cheeto the garden cat came to visit during breakfast in the back garden. Thank you Leah and Bobby for being great hosts!

We were spoiled having you guys as our first guests!! So glad you had a great time here. Come back again, I think Cheeto was over there looking for you after you left :)
Our recent stay at this charming property was nothing short of wonderful. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed by incredibly accommodating tenants who went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. Their warm, helpful nature made settling in easy and comfortable.
The area surrounding the house is absolutely stunning, with beautiful scenery and a peaceful atmosphere that adds to the overall experience. The house itself is elegantly and tastefully decorated, offering a perfect blend of style and comfort. Every detail has been thought of, and not a single amenity was lacking.
In just a few days, we felt like this place was home. It was a stay that left us feeling relaxed, refreshed, and genuinely cared for. We look forward to returning and would highly recommend this property to anyone seeking a cozy, welcoming retreat.

We are so grateful to have met Matthijs and Alma. Guests like them make operating a short term rental both exciting and fulfilling! They were truly our ideal guests- respectful, warm, and kind. The type of guests that we are a bit sad to see go! Please come back and visit us the next time you are abroad!! Warmly, The Hupps
About the host
Hosted by Bobby & Leah Hupp
We’re a local family who feels incredibly lucky to call the beautiful Okanagan home. We love hiking, gardening, enjoying a good cup of coffee by the creek, and sharing this peaceful slice of nature with others. Hosting gives us the chance to meet amazing people from all over while offering a cozy, welcoming space to relax, recharge, and explore. We’ve put a lot of heart into the cottage and hope you feel it the moment you arrive.
Why they chose this property
We spent over a year searching for the perfect place—and when we found this property, we knew it was the one. It’s one of the closest full-acre lots to town, giving us the best of both worlds: the space, privacy, and natural beauty we dreamed of, with all the convenience of nearby amenities.
What makes this property unique
We love the quirky charm, the towering pines that give it a forest feel, and the peaceful sound of the creek running by. It’s a truly special pocket of paradise. What makes it even more unique is our location—just 500 m from the sncəcmałqtn Agricultural Park and BX Ranch Trail. This ecologically rich area spans over 160 acres and connects to nearby parks and walking trails, offering guests a rare blend of natural beauty, history, and easy access to outdoor adventure—all right outside the door.
