About Cattail Creek Farms
Out on Casorso Road, the Lower Mission still keeps a few working acres between the subdivisions and the lake. Cattail Creek Farms is at 3830 Casorso Road, on the flat ground south of downtown where Mission Creek runs toward the water and the soil has been farmed a good deal longer than the streets around it have been paved. It is a corner of Kelowna where a paddock fence and a school catchment can share the same block.
Horse operations differ from one gate to the next, and it is worth knowing which kind you are approaching. Some run boarding only, with stalls, turnout and a hay program. Others add lessons, training, or the use of an arena for riders who keep their horses elsewhere. Facilities matter just as much: indoor against outdoor riding, the footing, trailer access, and how winter turnout is handled all shape what a boarder actually gets. Anyone looking for a place to keep a horse should ask about board levels, feed, farrier and vet coordination, and what the barn expects of owners day to day.
The number to call is 250-718-3585, and the farm keeps a page on Facebook. Riding in this part of the valley follows the weather closely, with long dry summers that bake the ground hard and short winters that turn it soft rather than frozen. Casorso Road is an easy run from Pandosy or anywhere in the Lower Mission, and only a few minutes off Highway 97 if you are hauling in from further out in the valley.

Where to shop in Kelowna: three centres and a market
Kelowna's retail splits into three non-overlapping centres, and knowing which one you need saves an afternoon of driving. Bernard's boutiques, Pandosy's independents, the highway belt's boxes, and the farmers market above them all.
