Luxurious Lakeside 2-Storey Oasis with Resort Amenities

This is the top floor at Barona Beach Resort, and it goes up from there. Four bedrooms and three bathrooms sit across two storeys, Okanagan Lake fills the windows on the main living level, and ten people fit without anyone sleeping on a couch by default. It is the largest layout Sierra Vacation Rentals runs here, built for the trip where two families travel together.

Sleep in Comfort

Four bedrooms give a group of ten real separation. The primary has a king bed, bedside tables, lake views and patio doors that open onto the private balcony. The second bedroom holds a queen bed and a dresser. The third is the family room, with a queen-over-double bunk bed plus a futon, which is where the extra sleeping capacity comes from. The fourth sits on the main floor with a single bed, a desk and a chair, a quiet office or the room for whoever wants their own door. Three full bathrooms serve them, one fitted with a jacuzzi tub and another with a standard tub and shower. Linens, towels, extra pillows, hangers and an iron are provided, and the in-suite washer and dryer keeps a long stay simple.

Gather & Unwind

The open-concept living area is where the group lands. Large windows carry the lake view across comfortable seating and a smart TV, with cable available as well. Meals split between a dining table and extra seating at the kitchen island, and the kitchen is genuinely stocked, from cookware, dishes and utensils to wine glasses, a drip coffee maker, an electric kettle, a blender, a dishwasher and a full oven and stove. When the evening is warm, everything moves to the balcony, where seating for six sits beside a gas BBQ and the lake does the rest.

Adventure at Your Doorstep

Start at the private dock, walk the sandy beach, then work back through the hot tub, the heated saltwater pool that opens mid-May into early October, the fitness centre, and a tennis court on the grounds. Up the hill, the Westside Wine Trail and Mission Hill Winery put world-class tasting rooms minutes from the door, and winery tours run from the area so nobody has to drive. Two Eagles Golf Course looks out across the lake and the mountains from its bistro patio. Bear Creek Provincial Park has the trail to Bear Creek Falls, and the Okanagan Rail Trail stretches 50 kilometres for cyclists. On the water, boating, paddle boating, tubing, water skiing and swimming are all right there.

Thoughtful Touches

Sierra Vacation Rentals fills the cupboards before you arrive with paper goods, bath products, coffee, tea, cooking oil, salt and pepper, foil, wrap, garbage bags, dish soap and laundry detergent. Keypad entry and a resort fob mean no key handover, air conditioning handles the July heat, beach essentials wait by the door, and one secure underground stall comes with the unit.

Bring the whole group, take the top floor, and let the lake set the pace.
