ABOUT
SONG BIRD RANCH
The location of our vacation rental allows guests to enjoy the best of both the Okanagan Valley and the Boundary Country. We are located just 35 minutes from the beautiful beaches and vineyards of Osoyoos, 20 minutes from the beautiful Kettle River and 10 minutes from Mt Baldy Ski Hill.
When you are staying here to soak up nature, you won't need to leave the property. The seventy-five-acres, include pine and larch forest, wetlands and trembling aspen groves. Trails wind through the different areas allowing for photo opportunities, especially for bird watchers, wildlife enthusiasts and nature lovers.
You are welcome to say hello to our horses, our chickens, our sweet golden retriever, and our squirrel friend, nicknamed Buddy. We are happy to have canine guests; however, for the safety of our resident pets, we require prior approval.
The property has many resident squirrels and chipmunks. Other wildlife, such as Whitetailed deer and moose pass through regularly. Occasionally a bobcat, lynx, bear or elk venture by, but sightings are rare.
ABOUT YOUR
HOST
The Smile, The Person, The Vision of Song Bird Ranch
Your superhost, Lara is genuine, respectful and an empathetic person with a passion for people, animals and nature. Lara enjoys working on the property, spending time with her husband and daughter.
Although Lara spent many years living in more urban areas, she is a country girl at heart. Born in BC, moved to Ontario and then returned to BC to spend nearly thirty years in the electrical trade. Finally, moving to the Boundary area was a dream come true.
Why Lara Chose the Regional District of the Kootenay Boundary
It had always been a dream of Lara’s to provide a retreat for folks who want a break from the fast-paced, urban environment. While we were considering many areas within the Province, we immediately fell in love with this property the first time we saw it. The property had everything we wanted including a peaceful natural setting, proximity to the Okanagan and Kootenay Boundary, and a general feeling of sanctuary. Lara could see immediately that it was a place that would promote relaxation, love and memories. This property has provided a blank slate to develop a retreat.
