Stay
Until the Four Seasons opens in the Okanagan, Apple D'Or
is your next best bet (or better). In a large log home overlooking the
lake and Champagne vineyard, the three guest suites are up to 800
square feet and are fully wired and very private, with a
no-expense-spared approach to décor and amenities. Recline by the pool
and rhyme off the nearby wineries you'll tackle in the afternoon: Joie, Laughing Stock, Nichol Vineyard, Therapy…
Apple D'or, 2587 Naramata Rd., Naramata, B.C., 250-496-4045, www.appledor.ca
Eat
Seasonality meets conviviality at Joy Road Catering's Thursday and Sunday night Alfresco vineyard dinners at God's Mountain Estate
in nearby Penticton. New friendships are forged at the outdoor harvest
table overlooking the lake—and one's faith in humanity is fully
restored.
Do
Walk, bike or run off the
night's festivities with an early morning jaunt on the meandering
Kettle Valley Trail accessed above Nichol Vineyard. Expansive views at
every turn, and an easy, flat road bordered by Indian Paintbrush and
Black Eyed Susans. For a map, click here.
