Beautiful cottage with lake view
The home was cozy and had all the essentials for a getaway with friends. It has amazing views of the lake and a large patio to enjoy the sun for morning coffee or star gaze at night. Darren the host was very easy to communicate with and was patient to answer all questions once checked into the home. The location is close to wineries, golf courses and restaurants and in a gated community of lakeside cottages.

Osoyoos Family Week
We rented this property for us and our 4 adult children and it was just perfect for what we needed for the 5 nights. Darren stays in very good communication and answers texts immediately. Fantastic location just a few minutes from town near vineyards, steps away from the beach. An added bonus was our son was able to bring his dog.

Family Fun
Our cottage was nicely appointed and had all the functional amenities for our family to sleep 12 comfortably, do laundry, cook and play at the beach. There was a paddle board, beach towels, beach lawn chairs, sand toys, a kayak and even golf carts to get down to the beach. We had a wonderful time! Darren, our host was great!

The Cottages are great!
We were not disappointed at all with our stay at The Cottages. The place was above our expectations. The two suites are very nice, clean and well equipped for all our needs. There was my wife & myself along with our three children and their partners as well as 3 grandchildren. We definitely would consider staying again if our plans included a trip to the Okanagan. Nice job Darren.

Another great stay at The Cottages
This was our 2nd stay at the Cottages in Osoyoos but first at this property. This location seemed quieter than the last being further away from the amenities but it was perfect! Super close walk to the private beach, corner lot with lots of green space for the pup and us to play and easy access to front gate. Cottage has 2 separate units that are both fully equipped with everything you need. This was a perfect setup for us because the adults had their own space upstairs and the kids could hangout and cook on their own downstairs while still being able to hangout as an entire group when we wanted. Our host was very responsive and available when needed. One shower door was off it's track and he immediately sent someone to take care of it. Overall an amazing stay and will definitely stay again!

Scenic, well equipped cottage
We chose this cottage for its scenic view and well equipped kitchen and this is exactly what we got. From the front windows we enjoyed the snow covered mountain views and watching the wildlife living on and around the lake. We stayed 32 nights and did a lot of cooking. The condo is simply perfect and we would not hesitate to return.

Beautiful property, amazing location!
My family and I (2 adults, 3 teenage boys) stayed at this cottage for 5 nights and we can't rave about it enough. The cottage itself is beautifully appointed, with quality linens and kitchen tools - including a KitchenAid stand mixer! The layout is nice and open - and the downstairs is actually a separate suite that can be rented but we had the whole house. Its location is super close to the marina and beach which makes it handy for a morning paddle or sail. The owner was extremely responsive and communicative throughout our stay, making sure we were always comfortable. I highly recommend anyone with a larger group to stay at this property. We would certainly return again!

Great Cottage - what an exceptional family vacation!
We just got home from an amazing week at this Cottage in Osoyoos. Darren was an amazing host, with very attentive communication and trouble shooting as required. The home is in great condition with an amply stocked kitchen, comfy beds, and one of the best views in the entire complex. We appreciated the outdoor dining set, sitting area, and umbrella. Excellent BBQ on the deck to compliment the great kitchen appliances! Darren's golf cart came in handy running around the complex, to the gym, the beach, and to the pool. The home comes well stocked with lots of beach chairs, an umbrella, kayak, floaties and more. Saved us from lugging all sorts of things from home. Made for an exceptional beach experience! I could not recommend this Cottage more. We have stayed in 4 different cottages, and this one is a standout! We will be repeat guests for sure!

Wonderful Quiet Retreat
Having had a stressful Spring we were looking for an escape to the country for some peace and quiet, golf and winery visits. Darren's unit at The Cottages filled that need perfectly. The location seemed remote but in real driving terms, very close to both Osoyoos and Oliver, not to mention all the great wineries and golf courses; perfect for us. The unit is VERY quiet and comfortable. The Beds are great as well. And the view from the living room is unsurpassed. We also appreciated being able to park our mini-van in the garage (and open the tailgate with the garage door closed - very spacious). YES, we will want to return and hope the unit is available for our next Osoyoos trip.

Great home with a fabulous view. This was a dream location with top amenities for a family vacation - beach (with an off-leash dog area and beach volleyball), playground, ample green space, fenced dog park and more - all just a short walk away. The pool wasn’t yet open for the season during our stay, but we look forward to a future opportunity to enjoy it. And, of course, many wine options and delicious food to sample within a short drive! Our host was very responsive to questions through both the booking process and the stay. We can’t wait to come back!

Great Cottage, Great Amenities, Great Views and Great Access
Excellent well equipped 2 bedroom house with a great westerly view of the lake, a two minute walk to the beach, located in a gated resort with a fitness center, pool and hot tub. We stayed here for 4 weeks to take a Covid break from Saskatchewan. My wife worked remotely for three of those weeks and would have stayed all winters. Internet connectivity was excellent. Our planned trip got off to a bumpy start and had to be delayed a week due to a death in our family. Darren accommodated the change with a minor cost.that did not cover the revenues in the lost week. Darren promptly responded to email and text enquires (always within -5 to 10 minutes) and checked in with us regularly. The cottage has easy access to Osoyoos, Oliver and 5 minutes to the wineries on Black Sage Road.

Recommended Osoyoos stay
The accommodation was amazing. The place was clean, large enough for our family or 6. The place had everything we needed for the stay ; Coffee, towels, beach floaties, golf cart, cups /plates, tv and was very cool aircon-ed place. The owner had booklet of instructions, manuals, FAQ which answered most of our questions but any other questions we had he communicated/answered back quickly. Very close to downtown Osoyoos, and most well known wineries. You can borrow golf cart from the owner and go out to the lake (walking 2 minutes and golf cart 30 seconds), or amazing pool/playground (walking 5-7 minute and golf cart 60 seconds). The pool was big enough for the kids and had kids pool and deeper pool which both of my kids enjoyed. If going back to Osoyoos will definitely go back to this place.
