Bighorn Ridge Guest House, Okanagan Falls

Bighorn Ridge Guest House is owned by Blue Mountain's lovely neighbours Carla Leinweber and Roger Hawthorne.

Overlooking the most iconic photographed view (same view as Blue Mountain Vineyard and Cellars) in the South Okanagan sits Bighorn Ridge Guest House on 10 native acres in the Great Basin Desert. The award winning "adobe" styled Guest House is adult-only, pet friendly (with prior approval) and has 2 private suites (accommodating 2 adults per suite) and a common kitchen. Stunning views of sweeping vineyards, hills and Vaseux Lake place you midway between Oliver and Penticton and 45 minutes north of the US border.

Each non-smoking suite has an electric fireplace, A/C, Wi-Fi, flat screen TV, queen size bed and a 3 piece bathroom. The common area has a fully equipped kitchen with cook-top, microwave, dishwasher and private fridge for each suite. Not designated as a "bed and breakfast" the common kitchen allows you to prepare your own meals. Covered outside veranda with common BBQ and private patio for each suite. Pet friendly with prior approval (no pets allowed unattended in your suite).

Planning a weekend in the Okanagan? We suggest that you book with Bighorn Ridge Guest House, as this is the perfect spot for a getaway.
