Orchard and Vineyard Stays in the Similkameen
You’re going to question your regular morning routine after you wake up and step out of your comfortable guesthouse to have your morning coffee in a sun-filled orchard or vineyard. Soak in the sights of the Similkameen Valley as you let the valley’s breeze gently kiss your skin.
Why not stay a little longer to sip and savour the Similkameen? Choose orchard and vineyard options suitable for the whole family or for romantic getaways. Unwind at the Tree to Me Inn in Keremeos, located on an organic farm with its bistro and specialty food market. Vineyard stays include the Sunshot Vineyard Guest House next door to Corcelettes Vineyard & Winery. In Cawston, choose a suite at Farmersdotter Organics, a farm known for its organic garlic. Overlook orchards at Klippers Guest Suites and walk to their Marketplace & Café and unique Row 14 Restaurant, or indulge in beautiful vineyard views from the luxury suites at Orofino Winery, or stay at Crowsnest Vineyard, featuring dining in the vineyard – for riverside and breathtaking river views, stay at Similkameen Valley Resort, or the log Harvest Moon Guesthouse at Forbidden Fruit Winery.
Many are fully equipped for you to cook up your local ingredients, or are located close to restaurants. From suites to tepees and a pool, Similkameen Valley Resort offers many options! Leave the cooking to someone else at Crowsnest Vineyards Guest House, with seven rooms with views above vineyards and orchards. The onsite restaurant features freshly made sourdough breads and local cuisine. You may catch wood-fired pizza night on the patio and hear some live music.
Orchards and Farms
There’s something delicious waiting right outside your door when you stay at one of our working orchards and farms in the Cawston area.
Farmersdotter is an organic garlic farm offering studio suites. If you stay during August, you may be arou.nd for the annual garlic harvest. If that doesn’t get your taste buds going, they also make garlic scape salt available locally and online.
Klippers Organics is another organic farm with four spacious and luxurious suites. You’ll be smack dab in the middle of the Organic Farming Capital of Canada and steps away from fresh produce, delicious wines, and ciders.
Vineyards
Catch some zzz’s surrounded by vineyards and your next favourite wine! There’s no roughing it here. These are the types of accommodation you’ve only dreamed about… so here’s to great dreams!
Sunshot Vineyard Guest House sits on the grounds of Corcelettes Estate Winery, perched on a steep, south-facing slope with sweeping views of Keremeos Mountain and the Similkameen Valley below. A wraparound patio catches the sun from two sides and makes the most of the panorama — open skies, rolling benchland, and the quiet that comes with being deep in wine country. The ranch house retains the grit and character of its desert homestead roots, while a large country kitchen, central air conditioning, and a BBQ make it easy to arrive and stay a while.
Stay at Orofino Vineyards — Canada’s first strawbale winery, with a courtyard set amongst the nut trees on a sun-drenched Cawston hillside. Choose from two vineyard suites right above the barrel room with panoramic valley views, a private deck, and a full kitchen.
The Guest House is a three-bedroom, 2,000-square-foot home sleeping up to six, nestled in the Home Vineyard with three outdoor sitting areas and everything needed to settle in for a few days.
Crowsnest Vineyard features seven simple, affordable rooms, some with vineyard and orchard views. Your stay includes a continental breakfast of fruits, breads, charcuterie and excellent coffees. Enjoy the on-site restaurant, winery, and bakery known for their sourdough, or picnic in the vineyard. Live music in summer on the weekends and enjoy pizza night!
Harvest Moon Guesthouse at Ven’Amour Organics & Forbidden Fruit Winery. Tucked at the end of a quiet dead-end road above the Similkameen River, this private log cabin on the Ven’Amour Organic Farm hillside sleeps up to six with a hot tub, fire pit, and sweeping river views. Guests are welcomed with a bottle of Forbidden Fruit wine and seasonal organic fruit — and the winery tasting room pouring award-winning estate organic wines, is steps away.
