The Red Haus stunning lakeview home on Okanagan Lake, W Kelowna, La Casa Resort.

**this home has a business license to operate in BC**
The Red Haus is set overlooking gorgeous lake Okanagan in a private and gated all seasons resort. The cottage is on the lake side of the resort with short walking access to the lakeshore and marina in a private resort community called La Casa. The cottage has one of the best beautiful panoramic views on the spacious deck of Okanagan lake and the vineyards on the opposite shore and is a beautifully and serenely decorated space for the ultimate place to unwind and relax. The deck is the place to be in the spring, summer and fall months (and bright sunny days in winter) and one of the most amazing views in the resort. Enjoy the fire table lounging area in the fall and winter sunshine days with a blanket and a cozy drink to warm by the fire while eagles soar by or in the summer for fireside long visiting chats taking in the sailboats by day and at night, the stars put on a show ✨

The heated pools and hot tubs, mini golf, tennis and pickle ball courts, floating water park areas (close a little earlier as lake gets cooler quicker around early to mid september) fenced in playground are open in the warmer months. Usually the pools and hot tubs, and most amenities are closed for the season by Canadian thanksgiving. They are open usually at the beginning of May for the season. There is an onsite general store and restaurant serving cocktails and casual fare for the nights you don't feel like cooking.

In the warmer months, golf carts are available for rental from the management area as well as paddle boards and kayaks. The beach area is accessible to golf carts but not cars.

There is a hiking trail on the road right below the cottage which is quick access to the beach and water park areas and is also a switchback hiking trail.

The beach is a rocky natural beach so water shoes for little ones and adults is recommended.

The lake is clean and clear. In the summer months it is quiet nice and refreshing. A breeze floats by often and sailboats and water sports boats regularly travel by. Read up on the legend of Ogopogo, (perhaps a long lost cousin of the Lochness creature) for fun.

The dog beach is located at the lower parking lot with a marked staircase down to the beach.

We prefer to go to Fintry park (is a 5 minute drive away) where there is a large boat launch for ease of use.
