Intimate cafe with great homemade goodies right across the road from the lake. They set up tables and chairs across the road on the grass so you can take in the view. It's on a quiet road with little traffic - very close to the marina.

The Kettle Valley Rail Trail is a multi-use recreational rail trail that runs through Penticton (and beyond). The trail uses a rail corridor that was originally built for the now-abandoned Kettle Valley Railway. The KVR Trail is just a few minutes walk away at the end of White Ave. Walk east on White Ave, cross Government Street at the pedestrian cross walk just before Eckhard Ave and the trail is just in front of you. You will pass below Munson Mountain, cross old railway tressels and enjoy great views.
