Holiday Park Resort is not a fancy place. Our unit was spacious but, in terms of decor, very dated. The RCI-linked condos are a minor part of the large resort that features mostly permanently-installed RVs or small manufactured vacation units. The recreational facilities--pools, small golf course, etc.--that feature prominently in advertising are also a minor part of the resort in terms of area, with the pools being heavily used. Staff proved responsive and cheerful, though it took a couple of days to solve the failure of the AC in our unit during a hot week. The location of the resort positions you well to enjoy the beauty, parks, lakes, and trails of the Okanagan area, with an undeveloped part of the Okanagan trail bordering the property.
The Holiday Park Resort provides a basic no nonsense experience. If you have small children, you'll find things for them to do in the 3 or so recreation areas. The swimming pools are small and I expect during the summer months will be pretty busy. There's a library with many paperbacks for avid readers. The furniture and rooms are are in need of updating but are functional. The water had a strange odour or it may have been the drainage system. Could notice it in the min-kitchen and washroom when the water was running.
The unit we stayed in was fresh out of the 1980's... talking green floor in the kitchen, old fashioned cabinets that look like they were in my kitchen as a child. bathtub was old and the water from that smelled a little funky. Everything (other than the water) was cosmetic and did not impact our stay. The villa was spacious and the kitchen had everything we needed (we stayed for two nights and did not end up cooking). Tons off amenities that we did not get a chance to take advantage of due to our short stay (multiple pools, playground, shuffleboard, tennis). Front desk staff was friendly. Location was quiet, everything was a drive to get to as we were on the outskirts. It was a great location for the airport which was our main reason for choosing to come to Kelowna but we definietly enoyed our time in the city…
Resort was well located with all the amenities and tourist attractions all within reach. Unit was well maintained and clean, grounds are well suited for vacationing family. Would not hesitate to return and enjoy the attractions of the area at different seasons!
We came in with lower expectations, but were pleasantly surprised right from the process, speed, friendliness of checkin staff. No hidden or extra fees was also a very nice surprise. Quiet, pleasant people all around us.
We had a great escape to Holiday Park Resort. It is a great location and easy access to Kelowna and the lake district. The park is well run and efficient. Everyone is friendly and accommodating. Our unit was spacious and very clean. It was well equipped and had a new BBQ. We spent our week biking the area.
The resort is excellent but the unit was very outdated. The room was very dark, even though there is natural light in the bathroom. It would be appreciated if a channel guide was provided with channel, affiliation and location of broadcast. The carpet was dirty, and we had to wear shoes while in the unit. Update, update, update.....
Tired, dated, dirty. Staff were good but they can only work with what they have, which is very little. Resort amenities looked fine from an appearance standpoint but we were not keen to explore given our first impressions.
Great place. Location - short distance north of Kelowna - away from the city but still close enough to do the shopping. There are munch of the farms around. There is one close to the Pebble beach where we found decent peaches. Unit. Be aware that if booking more than 7 nights you may be required to change the unit. This is not resort's thing, but RCI's. Resort handled the change absolutely perfect. Our new unit was ready by 9 am. The inconvenience is with packing and unpacking in the middle of vacation. Both two-BR units are spacious and with the pleasant views from the balconies. In afternoon it was quite hot inside as AC couldn't lower temperature below 28C. Kitchen was great, we had enough utensils for all 6 of us and run dishwasher only once a day. No laundry in the unit (there is one on-side). Resort. It is on the shore of a Duck lake. People are not swimming there, but resort has 2 single kayaks, 2 row boats, 1 peddle boat which you can rent for $10 per hr. Whenever we wanted them we always got them, so they were not in high demand. The tennis court was available for tennis after 4 pm. Before that it is dedicated for pickle ball. There are bycicles and trycicles for rent. Out of 3 pools only one allowed with kids. Beaches. There a lot of them. We liked Pebble beach and finally stick with it for the rest of the vacation. The launching dock 1.5 kilometers away from this beach. Forest fires. The smoke was up in the sky most of the time but not on the ground. For couple days when wend changed we had smoke on the ground. It didn't spoil our stay. We are definitely coming back to this resort. It is a great place…
We happened upon this resort for 4 days when we had a change of plans and we totally lucked out. We stayed in site 504 with our RV which had nice trees and was very quiet. Close to the pool, showers and laundry. People live here full time so it is a very well taken care of resort. Our spot was fully paved and graveled which we liked - no dirt or weeds. The picnic table was new. The pools are beautiful and overall I can see why people choose to live here full time. There are condos and modular homes and RVs converted to homes. The reason I gave a 4 is because Duck Lake isn’t anywhere we wanted to spend time - it’s quite unappealing and you cannot swim. We didn’t want to put the kayaks in. This is no fault of the resort - just a heads up to travelers who are looking for a lake. There are a few kids here but this is primarily an adult resort.…
