Oliver is a small working town not a tourist town.
Oliver is a small working town not a tourist town. Typical small interior BC town. Great location for touring the wineries in the lower Okanagan. Great many, very good wineries nearby, 5 to 10 minutes drive. Check out Black Sage road. Wineries to visit, Domaine Artema, Bartier bros, Church and State, Burrowing Owl, See Ya Later Ranch (OK Falls) and dozen others.
15 minutes to Osoyoos, 30 minutes to Penticton.
Nice little lake and park. Quiet as it closes up early, 9 pm. Good basic diners and couple pubs. Great, very authentic Mexican cantina.

The area is beautiful and very scenic.
The area is beautiful and very scenic. There is all, anyone who likes wine and spirits can do in one place. An abundance of Wineries & Distilleries
that are generally open to tour with tastings available at a reasonable cost.

I have always liked the area.
I have always liked the area. There are great places to eat. We went to the Firehall pub and brewery for our dinner. Could use more places for a real breakfast, that are open on Mondays. Close to wineries, and they now have a Wine Village, where you can go and sample some of the really small vintners and micro breweries, and have something to eat. Need lots of time there.
I believe there is a small race tract there as well.

Oliver is relatively small but the wineries around Oliver...
Oliver is relatively small but the wineries around Oliver are abundant. It's a short drive to Penticton and Osoyoos, so it's nice because it's not as crazy busy as Osoyoos, and is a nice place to enjoy the surroundings.

This was the best motel I have ever stayed in.
The staff were exceptional. The room was perfect.
The most comfortable bed ever, lovely sheets.
Coffee maker, fridge, microwave.
So many towels it was better than a hotel.
No joke, The Cactus Tree Inn should not be driven past. And it was the best value in the whole of BC.
It is clear that the people running this place care.
The details show that.
Make this your choice you will not regret it.
I stayed an extra night rather than take a risk down the road with anything else.

This was my second time at orchard at Oliver. I was with friends. Very bare minimum as far as the kitchen goes , no toaster, not enough glasses, and those were even mismatched glasses, 2 champagne, 2 wine , for 6 people . Wish they had taken the time to stock for the appropriate number of guests. No housekeeping first day, garbage left in bathroom sink second day. The large bins for recycling and garbage all over full. Seemed like it was a little run down since our stay last year.

This was a very good place to stay for our visit to Area 27 Motorsports Park in Oliver, BC. It was less than ten minutes to the track. A public swim area at the nearby lake was just a few minutes walk away.
Our hosts were very friendly and provided lots of history of the town and made good recommendations on places to eat.
They made breakfast according to our schedule and the food was excellent.
