A small town with character is emphasized by the people who call it home. The Chirping Cricket definitely gave us the small town feel, warm, friendly, and very hospitable. We walked in as strangers amongst strangers and left with a beautiful memory, and made some new friends. Nicki has a beautiful home, and you can tell pride of ownership the minute you step through the front door. In the evening we enjoyed the company of total strangers we had met just hours before, sitting on the elevated covered deck with refreshments and snacks, talking like we had known each other for decades. That’s how warm and friendly the whole experience was. We can’t wait to visit again.

This was one of the best expeiences we have ever had at a B&B. Not just because of the excellant facilities, but the host Nickki was so wonderful. She has a knack at putting her guests at ease, and is very warm and friendly. We also enjoyed meeting the other guests and the gourmet breakfasts, especially the Dutch Babies. We can hardly wait to return for another visit.

Nikki was such an amazing host—super warm, welcoming, and easy to talk to when asking about places to check out nearby. The place was spotless, smelled great, and the air conditioning made it extra comfy. The breakfast she prepared was amazing, and the view from her place was just beautiful. It’s also in a great location—really close to the zipline, wineries, and in a lovely neighborhood that’s perfect for walking around. You can tell she puts a lot of care into making her guests feel at home. Would definitely stay at The Chirping Cricket again!

It’s very accessible from the main highway (97). It’s less than 5 minutes from the beautiful Peachland downtown. The town is a lot less hectic (and virtually no traffic) compared to Kelowna. Penticton and Oliver wineries are within reasonable driving distance. The immediate community/neighbors seem friendly. There is almost endless views of Okanagan Lake from virtually anywhere.
