Other things to note

New Short Term Rental Legislation in BC

We have had several questions regarding how the new legislation that went into effect on May 1, 2024 might impact your stay with us. Our Kelowna vacation rental has a valid short term rental business license from the city of Kelowna and importantly our unit is within our principal residence. Therefore, we don’t expect the new legislation to impact our operations. The provincial requirement of being part of a principal residence is a major change that could result in some short term rental units being forced to shut down. The province will also require 3rd party platforms to require operators have a business license or the platform must remove the listing.

Haskap Farms is an active farm that grows and sells organic haskap berries. What are haskaps you might ask? They are berries from the Honeysuckle family and are an excellent source of antioxidants. They have a tangy fruit flavour with hints of raspberry, blueberry and black currant. On the surface this berry has the colour of a blueberry and is oblong or oval in shape. The inside flesh of the berry is a rich maroon colour and very juicy. Haskap farms offers frozen haskap berries and an assortment of jams, jellies and syrup.

As an active farm, you may hear agricultural machinery and activities. During the winter months the tractor will be plowing snow on the driveway and parking areas. During the spring and summer months the tractor may be cutting the grass or we’re using equipment to put up the bird nets to protect the haskap berries. For a few weeks in June and July we harvest the haskap berries starting around 6am for a few hours when the weather is cool. After the harvest is complete it takes a week or so to take the bird nets down which we do sometime in August and September. During these periods it may be noisy when the equipment is in operation near the house. We are very mindful of our guests and try to minimize the noise around the house, especially in the early morning.

Pet Friendly Licensed Suite on Haskap Farm offers its guests barbecue grills and a garden. The front desk is open around the clock.
