Are you dreaming of owning a vacation home but don’t know where to look? Dropping 5 destinations that should definitely be on your shortlist.
1: Okanagan Valley, BC
With more than 186 wineries, this valley on the shores of Okanagan Lake — known as the “birthplace of winemaking in British Columbia” — is a paradise for oenophiles. The area’s wine trails, unique culinary experiences, and breathtaking vineyard views are the main draw, but those looking for a more active experience have plenty to look forward to as well.
Biking and hiking trails, endless water activities, and over 30 golf courses are sure to get your heart pumping.
2: Muskoka Lakes, Ontario
Constantly rated as one of the best places to visit in Canada, the Muskoka area, located about a three-hour drive north of Toronto, is home to lush forests, small towns, and scenic lakes that offer endless possibilities for recreation.
This is a four-season destination, offering water sports in the summer, stunning landscapes come fall, and skiing and snowboarding during the winter.
3: Whistler, BC
While many think of Whistler as the quintessential winter destination — after all, the town’s Olympic Park served as a venue for the 2010 Winter Olympics, and it has the largest skiable terrain in North America — this beautiful mountain resort north of Vancouver serves as a year-round destination.
With three golf courses, multiple lakes with sandy beaches and water sports, biking and hiking trails, beautiful waterfalls, and zip lining, Whistler is just as busy in the warmer months as it is during the winter.
4: Canmore, Alberta
Set against the towering, snow-covered peaks of the Canadian Rockies, Canmore is the perfect home base near the country’s most-visited national park — Banff, known for its picture-perfect glacier lakes, hot springs, and awe-inspiring scenery.
Located a little over an hour west of Calgary — home to an international airport that services many direct flights from major U.S. destinations — this charming mountain town sits on territory that belongs to the Métis Nation of Alberta.
5: Sun Peaks, BC
Winter sports fans have surely heard this name before. With 4,300 acres of skiable terrain, Sun Peaks is known as one of Canada’s best — and less-crowded — ski destinations.
The ski-in, ski-out village is bustling with charming restaurants, cafes, and shops. Plus, it’s nestled between three scenic mountains and close to several lakes, making it the ideal year-round destination.
