BCWineLover.com new sponsor! Walnut Beach Resort Osoyoos

Walnut Beach Resort Osoyoos
Walnut Beach Resort right on Osoyoos Lake

BCWineLover.com is pleased to have a new sponsor advertising with us this summer. Walnut Beach Resort is a gorgeously appointed accommodation that is just a couple minutes drive from the Osoyoos, BC town centre. The pool area is a centrepiece of the facility, and it faces in the direction of the town just at the edge of Osoyoos Lake.

Stacey and I got to visit the facility during the South Okanagan Wine Assocation 2010 Banée. See a slideshow of images from that memorable event here. It left an impression on us, and we hope to return for a stay some time!

We had a delicious lunch at Walnut Beach Resort, and the foodies & wine critics in attendance all agreed the culinary creations were first rate. If you are staying in the South Okanagan be sure to see when their restaurant is open.

If you click the web banners you can read more about the resorts 20% off special offer. We can not only vouch for what an impressive facility Walnut Beach Resort is, but it's also close to some of BC's best wineries – such as Nk'Mip, Burrowing Owl, Road 13 & Tinhorn Creek.
