We stayed at this property just recently in July and the house was as advertised. Lots of space for the family, every conceivable amenity we could ask for and the hosts were quick to respond. Our family made good use of the pool table, hockey net in the garage and also, the ping pong table. I would highly recommend this place to any family who wants a great location to hang out together.
Property was great! Lots of room for the family. Close to the Naramata bench and the Skaha beach. Hot tub was in pristine condition and was great to use on the cooler evenings. Kitchen well stocked. Hosts were friendly and always helpful when needed. Would recommend staying here for sure!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Balsam house in Penticton. The house had everything we wanted for our week in Penticton. If we return we would certainly look at renting this property again.
Such a great place. 5 of us stayed for a long weekend. Lots of rooms for all of us, great instructions, binder full of information, just an overall super experience!
House had a lot of great features like pool table, hot tub, which made for a very enjoyable stay. Perhaps a little on the expensive side, but it is a big house.
We came to Penticton for a long weekend stay with our adult children and their partners. The Balsam House was an excellent base for our visit to the area.
A wonderful place to reconnect and explore penticton. We loved the kitchen and the all the games and used the hot tub daily. Thank for having us at your home. Much nicer than a hotel .
Great place for adults or families with teenage children. Easy drive to the beach. Lots of wineries close by. Close to shopping mall with grocery store and liquor store
Beautiful house with spacious rooms. Description and photos are accurate. We were surprised at the elevation of where it is located. We were in Penticton for a cycling trip and the steep climb back to the house at the end of a full day of cycling was challenging - but we survived.
We needed a place to stay for a celebration of life for my Mom and this home was the perfect calm home for my family. Next time we will be more festive and hopefully use the hot tub!
Really enjoyed the location, amenities and environment for having a social gathering rather than just accomodations where you need to head elsewhere. Easy check in and check out process. Cheers
Arriving at this beautiful home literally took our breath away. Not only was it spacious and full of amenities but it was spotlessly clean as well. This extraordinary home made our stay in Penticton one we will never forget.
Lovely,comfortable,well equipped,clean home,hot tub well maintained.Close to shopping,restaurants,water and beaches.
Would certainly recommend to others.
Excellent.
Spacious and comfortable base for a relaxed winter vacation.
This spacious and comfortable home complete with pool table and hot tub made for a fun family vacation. Apex ski resort is a 35-40mins drive away and was refreshingly crowd-free compared to other BC ski resorts we’ve visited. We enjoyed views of the surrounding mountains from the living room and bedroom windows. The house is set in a nice, quiet neighbourhood not far from the amenities of downtown Penticton. The lighting in the house could use some upgrading as the ceiling pot lights were rather dim and several would flicker out unexpectedly making some rooms quite dim at night. That said, the owners were very responsive and attentive in mitigating small issues such as this and brought us a floor lamp during our stay. The hot tub was very well maintained/ph-balanced and worked well. Would recommend the dishware (e.g. plates, bowls etc) be expanded a bit so that the dishwasher need not be run after every meal. Overall, we were very happy with the rental and would use it again.
The place is very nice. The professionally staged pictures of the place pretty much represent what you get. The pool table was fun to use once you figure out the no-bounce cushions. Our adult kids still had fun challenging each other at pool, and the table tennis was also appreciated and well used. The kitchen has a lot of utensils and there was coffee in two forms; ground for drip and Keurig, which was nice. There are a lot of spice blends to use which you often don’t get. The 3 upstairs beds are comfy and large. You will need to bring your own shower soap and shampoo tho.
We really enjoyed the large deck but it was too hot to use the hot tub. Communication was pretty good but my last message about a discovered hornets nest in the railing going up the stairs and lack of TV service (Netflix etc.) took several days for a reply, the reply coming about 48 hours after I sent the message. The TVs were not connected to any service that we could figure out. We were supposed to be able to use our own Netflix account. There were no instructions provided on how to do that. According to the day late reply, you need to connect a device to the HDMI port. You might want to bring your own cable if you want a streaming service on a TV.
The home is beautiful. Pool table and hot tub were a bonus. Barry, the owner, responded immediately to minor issues (light bulbs) and he was very personable. We would highly recommend!
This property had so many great features for our family. My son is an avid hockey player and played in the garage on the hockey set up anytime we were at the house. My daughter plays piano so she was thrilled that there was a piano for her. My husband and I played countless games of pool and loved sitting on the patio with morning coffee and in the evening with a glass of wine. It’s just a 5 minute drive to Skaha beach and there are so many restaurants and stores within just a few minute drive as well.
Great property in a quiet area that was perfect to relax at after a day of hockey drills. Played pool, watched movies, relieved sore muscles in the hot tub. Very close to downtown Penticton and easy drive to the wineries, without the congestion or noise around the hotels
