At Nighthawk Vineyards, every bottle tells a story, and their impressive catalogue of award-winning wines doubles as an endless trove of delightful tales. Nighthawk Vineyards is a true Okanagan original: family-owned, thoughtfully designed, and deeply rooted in local pride.
This boutique winery offers one of the most immersive wine country experiences in British Columbia, with a distinctive terroir that contributes to some of the finest grape growing conditions, and family members who infuse passion into every bottle.
Taste the Land
Voted “Best Outdoor Dining Experience in BC” four years in a row and recently named “Favourite Winery” in the Best of the South Okanagan 2024, Nighthawk knows that there’s no better pairing than good wine and great food—unless you add an unbeatable view.
Here, wine tasting is both an art and an experience. Guests are invited to sample a curated selection of handcrafted wines, with tastings available indoors or on the vineyard-view patio (weather permitting). Walk-ins are welcome, and pre-booking is encouraged for groups.
To pair with your glass, try a wood-fired pizza, fresh from their Portuguese oven, or linger longer over a seasonal dish at the Vineyard Kitchen & Patio, which offers lunch, happy hour, and dinner service—all served with a side of panoramic valley views. And if you prefer to picnic among the vines, the pizzas are available to go during lunch hours, too.
Stay Among the Vines
With on-site vineyard access, nearby hiking and cycling trails, kayaking, and the charming Okanagan Falls beach just five km away, there’s no shortage of ways to enjoy the region. And after a day of hiking, cycling, kayaking, or wine tasting, there’s no better way to unwind than in a private tenthouse retreat tucked above the valley.
Nighthawk takes glamping to a new level, offering guests the chance to stay overnight in nature without sacrificing comfort. Their signature Tenthouse Suites—eco-friendly, solar-powered, and custom-designed—offer an elevated retreat quite literally nestled in the trees. With king-sized beds made of local “Medevil Walnut,” private decks with outdoor soaking tubs, and original Okanagan artwork, every suite invites rest, romance, and renewal.
Each stay includes:
- A bottle of Nighthawk wine served with Riedel crystal glassware
- Daily continental breakfast delivered to your door
- Private ensuite with rain shower and hardwood finishes
- Custom amenities and peaceful views of the lake and vineyard
These suites have all the benefits of modern comfort combined with the knowledge that your stay leaves nothing behind but footprints and memories. While pets aren’t allowed in the accommodations, nearby pet resorts mean your furry companions can enjoy their own Okanagan holiday, too.
Guests can also inquire about private dinners during their stay to really make their visit feel like a personalized retreat—a perfect option for a romantic escape! The winery also offers vineyard tours and curated wine club memberships for those who want to take a piece of the magic home.
