views of the valley and a challenging game. Opened recently in 2008,
Tower Ranch is an 18 hole, par 72 course. Often placing in the top 3

of Lake Okanagan from 400 meters above for 12 out of 18 holes (par 72).

the green and framed by a large pond. Amenities include club rentals,
driving range, pro shop, restaurant and snack bar.
- The Bear and Quail – Both courses are
18 hole, par 72 courses. Well placed bunkers, sculpted mouldings, grassy

sage bush hills. Amenities include club rentals, driving range, pro shop,

acres set in the wine capital of Canada (Oliver),
this 18 hole par 72 course is a must-play for those who like scenic games.
