BEACH, POOL AND OUTDOOR HOT TUBS: A RECIPE FOR SUMMER FUN

Located on a sandy beach on warm Osoyoos Lake, Watermark Beach Resort has the ideal ingredients for summer fun.
Stretch out on your beach towel with a good book or build a sandcastle with the kids. Laze in the sun by the large, lakeside pool and watch the kids enjoy hours of fun playing on the outdoor waterslide. After the sun sets, gaze at the star-filled sky from the outdoor hot tub.
 

KICK BACK WITH FRIENDS AT THE WINE BAR

After lounging by the pool or boating on the lake, kick back with friends and family at Watermark Beach Resort’s Wine Bar & Patio.
Enjoy superb wines, flavourful tapas, house-made charcuterie and a relaxed ambiance. Featuring beautiful hardwood floors, comfy seating and a wrap-around bar, the interior of the wine bar is intimate and inviting. Dine on the spacious, 80-seat patio and soak in the warm weather and views of the lake and pool.
The Wine Bar & Patio offers an extensive wine list that features the Okanagan’s best wineries and specialty cocktails made with local ingredients. On a warm summer evening, sip a refreshing Pinot Gris from Burrowing Owl or a Sauvignon Blanc from Black Hills Estate Winery. Or savour a glass of Hester Creek’s Cabernet Merlot or Gehringer Brothers’ Pinot Noir.
 

TRY THE HOUSE WINE

Teaming up with Orofino Vineyards, Watermark Beach Resort has its own exclusive label.
The resort’s palate-pleasing “Really, Really Red” is a blend of Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot that has been aged for six months longer than the norm. Watermark’s signature Whet Wet Wine is a Chardonnay with notes of tropical fruit and a hint of subtle oak.
Complement your favourite wine by snacking on gourmet, house-made charcuterie, including pâté, cured meats, preserves, chutneys, marinated warm olives and pickled delicacies made with organic, local ingredients. Treat your taste buds to exquisite tapas made largely with organic and local ingredients. Munch on pulled-pork sliders made with organic, local pork and house-made barbecue sauce or baked Pacific cod marinated in miso, sake and honey. And top it all off by dipping (or diving) into a freshly-baked desert.
