Fall is one of our favorite seasons to travel. The autumn months mark a seasonal transition, both in nature and our day-to-day lives. Making a special getaway to see the change in fall foliage is a perfect way to say goodbye to the laid-back days of summer and welcome back the busier seasons ahead.
And with Luxus Vacation Properties, you can count on your autumn vacation being a full 5-star experience – if not more. Luxus offers luxuriously appointed vacation rentals to make exceptional vacation memories any time of year – but some of them shine extra bright in the fall.
Take a tour of these Luxus properties that give you a front-row view of autumn’s vibrant colors.
Discover what all the hype is about in BC’s sun-soaked interior, with a stay in Kelowna.
This fertile, glacier-carved valley in central BC will wow you with stunning vistas in every direction. Defined by a chain of long, narrow, and deep blue-green lakes (Okanagan Lake, Skaha Lake, Kalamalka Lake, and Osoyoos Lake), the Okanagan Valley also offers a dramatic backdrop of forested hills and mountains, plus the only near-desert ecosystem in all of Canada.
What all this means for autumn visitors is a spectacular season of color and activity.
From early-to-mid October, Kelowna's plethora of vineyards and fruit orchards turn gold and crimson, along with the aspen, cottonwood, birch, Western larch, and maple trees. With mild and pleasant daytime temps, and over 200 wineries between Kelowna and Osoyoos to explore, fall is prime time for a Kelowna vacation.
Check availability for Discovery Bay 108, our premier Okanagan Valley property in Kelowna.

Plan a fall day trip along the Palms to Pines Scenic Byway (Highway 74) that takes you to the small mountain town of Idyllwild, just 25–35 miles from Palm Springs and Indian Wells.
