Looking for a quiet, peaceful relaxing home away from home?
Tamarack Villa Bed and Breakfast is situated in beautiful British Columbia, Canada in an area known as the Shuswap which is at the north end of the Okanagan Valley, and only a fifteen minute drive southeast of Salmon Arm. The view is always changing and Mother Nature puts on some amazing displays during the summer months as the sun slowly sets over the Fly Hills and Shuswap Lake. On clear nights the stars are almost touchable. There is a firepit which can be a way to share some music and stories under the stars. There is a good chance that there might be a few soft melodies on the piano as you drift off to sleep in one of our comfortable beds.
Experience the serenity of 20 park like acres. There are many walking trails with a variety of native plants including false solomon seal, ferns, Queen's cup and bunchberry to name a few. The trails wind through a variety of trees including Larch, White Birch, Poplar, Western Red Cedar, White Pine, Douglas Fir, and Hemlock.
Enjoy the fruits of our labour. As part of our breakfast, depending on the season, we serve freshly picked strawberries, raspberries, blackberries and blueberries. Breakfast is served in our dining room or on our covered deck. Afterwards, enjoy a stroll through the forest or among the many flower gardens and fruit trees.
Salmon Arm is located in the interior of British Columbia and is about midpoint between Calgary and Vancouver along the Trans Canada Highway. Tamarack Villa is about an hour and a quarter from either Kelowna or Kamloops.
There are a number of beaches nearby for swimming and relaxing and lots of areas to hike, bike, drive and enjoy the natural beauty that the Shuswap area has to offer.
