Pixie Bay Cottage retreat with amazing lake and mountain views & beach access

Licence #10000661. Pixie Bay Cottage is located on a quiet road only steps to beach access on Okanagan Lake. Our semi-lakeshore 70's home in Lake Country is conveniently located between Kelowna and Vernon, 15 minutes by car to UBCO Kelowna or Vernon campuses. You would be staying in a private 2 bedroom unit on the ground level of our home. We are only minutes away from other lakes, beaches, parks, wineries, vineyards, golfing , boat launches, restaurants, shops, hiking and biking trails, pickle ball, watercraft rentals and only 10 minutes to the YLW airport. We offer amazing views, an outdoor seating area with bbq and a place to enjoy a peaceful getaway by the lakefront. Enjoy the rich culture and diverse landscapes in this all-season playground. Perfect for endless activity and exploring or for a quiet getaway from a busy life. It's your time, so enjoy it your way.

The Cottage Unit
We have newly renovated the ground level of our 70's house in a Modern Beach style. We are excited to welcome guests to share the serenity and views from our year-round cottage home.

You will have exclusive access to the unit by way of the front entrance. The Lakeside Room has a queen bed, beautiful picture window view of the lake, mountains and blue skies. The Driftwood Room has a queen bed and a quiet relaxed by-the-lake feel and a small desk providing a workspace. Both beds are extremely comfortable with luxurious cotton bedding and with memory foam mattresses infused with green tea extract providing a calm sensation for a rejuvenating sleep.

The main living area has a love seat, dining table and chairs and a kitchen that is outfitted with all your basic appliances and amenities. Enjoy your meals indoors or have a bbq and eat outside where you can enjoy a beautiful Okanagan sunset and lake views along with a glass of your favourite Okanagan wine. We provide recycling and composting containers for your use to do your part for the environment.

There is one TV in the unit with AppleTV. We include a Telus PikTV channel pkg. We provide an HDMI Cable for streaming from your laptop. There is also a DVD player with an assortment of videos to watch.

The 3 piece bath has a large shower area. Organic cotton towels and hairdryer is provided. We are trying our best to be eco-friendly and ask that our guests help by minimizing the use of water and by reusing towels during their stay. You will be provided with a few sets of towels for the duration of your stay. Access to the washer/dryer is available only upon request or for stays longer than 7 days.

Our home is quiet and peaceful but not without some transfer of daytime activity from upstairs. We installed sound barriers, but it is still a house, so some noises may transfer. We do our best to make sure your quiet enjoyment is not disrupted.

We look forward to having you stay with us soon at Pixie Bay Cottage!

Amazing vacation
Wy wife and spent a week in the Kelowna area and Heidi and Stevea pixie bay Vrbo was our home base. The place itself was clean, spacious and well stocked with anything you would need. I can’t say enough about how well I slept in that bed!!! Heidi and Steve were available to answer any questions and provided some great recommendations for places to go some of their favourite restaurants and winery’s. The beach was a short walk and we spent some down time enjoying the beach and views. The location was perfect for us exploring the okenagan area and Heidi and Steve were great hosts. I would not hesitate to recommend their VRBO and I know we will be back!

A Hidden Gem on Pixton !
We really enjoyed our stay at the Pixton Cottage it was well equipped with kitchen supplies, dishes and utensils! Our first impression was “wow” so clean, bright, spacious and newly renovated! The girls were so excited to choose a bedroom when they are decorated so beautifully with such a talented artistic touch ! Heidi and Steve were very helpful and live upstairs. The stay was quiet and they respected our privacy but if we needed them by text they responded promptly ! The suite is air conditioned and we were provided extra fans if needed, but the temperature was perfect. The beds have memory foam and were very comfortable so we could get a good rest each night. We will definitely stay again and recommend this cottage to other friends. The cottage is 15 minutes from the Kelowna airport and close to shopping, groceries, gas stations, and restaurants. The cottage is just up the walk way from a tiny public rocky beach access with a log bench for enjoying your morning coffee! Thank you so much to the both of you for sharing a little piece of your Okanagan paradise with others ! This suite is a hidden gem !

Lovely suite
This suite is very clean, nicely decorated and really well appointed. Everything you need for preparing your own meals but close enough to some lovely restaurants if you’d rather not cook. Comfy beds and wonderful linens. Hosts are super accommodating. Thank you Heidi and Steve for the use of Pixie Bay Cottage. We had a lovely time.

Heidi, thank you so much for letting us stay in your beautiful home! This was our first time staying in a VRBO, we’ve always stayed in a hotel, not anymore, completely converted! Your home is very homey, inviting, the views are stunning, the smell out the front door are intoxicating, the sounds of the crickets and owls were amazing! Thank you for all the information you offered, we didn’t want to leave, we look forward to our next visit, our stay was as the title says Fantástico!!!

A wonderful, peaceful place, clean, well equipped with beautiful views of the lake and the mountains, close to several good restaurants and many orchards and wineries. The hosts are extremely friendly. We went back for the second time this year and enjoyed every single day of the entire week we stayed there. God willing we will go back next year.

Family visit to Kelowna
This suite and location location are excellent, and a great value for the price. The pictures of the suite are exactly as shown. It is beautifully decorated, with lots of nice added touches. We were very comfortable for our week long stay, and Heidi and Steve were pleasant, and very accommodating. We loved the location, with a short walk to the beach, and nice markets and restaurants close by. And our hosts provided some great information on nearby attractions and hiking trails. Some of this houses exterior could be freshend up with a coat of paint, but don’t let the exteriors curb appeal deter you when you drive up….this property is a gem!

Comfortable stay in Lake Country for a Wedding
We chose this VRBO primarily for its proximity to the wedding venue (5km away). My mother and I were attending my sister’s wedding in Lake Country and we just needed a place to stay for 5 nights. Shortly after arrival Heidi stepped out to say hello and to let us know that she’s around if we needed anything which I appreciated. The rental unit, located on the ground level, consists of an entryway area, 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom and a large kitchen/dining/living room area. While there’s no bathtub the shower stall is very spacious (72” by 36” by my estimation) which felt like a treat after years of using a 30” by 30” shower stall at home. The handheld shower head and water pressure also deserve a shout-out. Moving on, the kitchen contains a 2 burner electric stove and all the cooking ware you could need for any home cooking. The complimentary coffee was fantastic (I didn’t miss a single morning). The dining table can also serve as a work desk if you brought a desktop computer. No complaints about the bedrooms – the beds were large and on the firmer side which I prefer. I slept very well. Would I stay here again? Absolutely.

Relaxing spot by the lake
A pristine fully equipped two bedroom suite that is steps from the lake, beautiful view, orchards within walking distance… this place was all the good things you hope for and more. When we arrived we were first taken by the view of the lake. Everything is decorated in a chic country style with one of a kind art pieces (which we later found out Heidi, the host, made!). The beds were so comfortable. The kitchenette is the most fully equipped stylish kitchenette we’ve every seen. This place has everything you need to spend a few days or even weeks resting with all you need to store and cook a few meals or if you’d rather eat out - the host provided an excellent list of options for local cafes/ restaurants. Heidi and Steve are welcoming and were available if we needed anything or had questions.
