Kelowna Travel Forum

hello !
i would like have imformation on kelowna and your opinion about the city.
Thank you

A redneck TOWN trying desperately to be noticed. Fantastic recreation attractions. Beautifuly scenic. A growing French community
I like Vernon better

it's a zoo in the summer time and i avoid it as much as possible.
i like vernon or summerland better too.

Too expensive to move there

LOL, not if you are moving from Vancouver or Calgary

Here is the official tourism website: http://www.tourismkelowna.com/
Dave is entitled to his opinion, but I don't know where the redneck comes from - it's a small city and most of the people move here for the lifestyle, pretty laid back and 4 seasons of outdoor recreation. There is a growing cultural community with local theatre, art galleries, etc., wineries to tour, world-class golf courses, great shopping and of course the lake. High season is from may to October so in summer it will be busy and more expensive. Traffic is definitely an issue in the tourist months but the new north end bypass is almost finished so that should alleviate some problems.
Kelowna is in the centre of the Okanagan Valley and other places are easily visited - there are several smaller towns with their own unique offerings within 1-2 hour drive.
The hotels are scattered around the city but there also alot of houses for rent so that is also something to consider if you are here for a week or more.
