A Toast to Small-Town Living

In Summerland, we look forward to spring and the return of Bottleneck Drive – a unique collection of wineries, cideries, and a brewery carefully nestled among rolling hills, orchards, and vineyards that offers an authentic taste of the Okanagan for locals and tourists alike.

Each year, the Summerland Chamber of Commerce hosts the Business and Community Excellence Awards, an annual event that recognizes a handful of businesses and community organizations that support and enhance life in Summerland. During this year’s gala, more than 60 nominees and business leaders gathered to celebrate 15 Business Award recipients, 3 Community Award recipients and the Mayor’s Award of Excellence recipient.

Summerland has long called to nature-lovers and those seeking a slice of the Okanagan lifestyle. From its rocky, volcanic slopes above to the orchards, vineyards and beaches below, Summerland offers the allure of a slower pace of life, and a path less traveled. Nestled between rolling golden hills and the sparkling Okanagan Lake, we’re fortunate to live alongside the beauty of this area, crafting a carefully designed community woven into a natural preserved setting. At Hunters Hill, the charms of a small-town living, and a slower pace of life find a welcome home.

These natural benefits allow you the chance to fulfill the call of the wild, strolling along preserved wildlife paths and enjoying the sunshine while you leave behind the day-to-day stress and embrace the land.
