Imagine a quiet little town nestled in a valley of vineyards, gardens and
orchards. Lush desert foothills crowned by magnificent rock formations
surround the valley.
This
is Oliver, B.C., the Wine Capital of Canada, home to
fourteen wineries, award winning wines and a haven for agri- tourism.
Here
in the northern tip of the Sonoran Desert, just 25 kilometers inside the
Canada – US border is Canada’s only desert and only desert climate; with
awesome summers, mild blue- sky winters and over 2000 hours of annual
sunshine. This fertile valley produces 4500 acres of the world’s best
grapes, an abundance of apricots, peaches, pears, apples, cherries and
every imaginable vegetable.
This
is four seasons living at its best. Developed hiking and biking trails
abound, fresh water fishing streams, lakes, bird sanctuaries, parks, an
astrophysical observatory, botanical gardens and a desert interpretive
centre are nearby. Like a Napa Valley setting, your neighbours are the
vineyards and sandy beaches.
There
is world-class golf on your doorstep and seven other nearby championship
courses. Two cross-country and down hill ski developments are just minutes
away. Imagine: ski, golf and tour world-class wineries all in the same
day.
A
truly unique setting and in the midst of it all is Arbor Crest, a
quiet gated community with homes that look like they were created just for
you. Forty-four craftsman style bungalows and walkouts clustered around a
central garden park of generous landscaping with putting green, stream and
water garden.
This
isn’t a holiday. This is the healthy relaxing lifestyle you promised
yourself.
This is the Wine Capital of Canada. This is
Arbor Crest.
