If you are craving some of the delicious Okanagan wine look no further. Check out Gray Monk Winery located in Lake Country.  The Heiss family moved to the Okanagan in 1972 and that’s where their story begins. This award-winning winery is known for having amazing local wines that have won awards year after year. We can’t even pick a favorite, there are so many great choices at this local winery.

Eat Here → The Jammery

They offer breakfast and lunch options and a wide variety of amazing jams to purchase. Some of their food items were featured on Canada’s You Gotta Eat Here tv show.
