Tobiano


Description: Tobiano is set upon a gentle 1,000-acre rise overlooking the pristine waters of 20-mile long Kamloops Lake - an additional 17,000 - acre wilderness backyard accentuates Tobiano's spectacular setting. Its pedestrian-friendly village, resort accommodations and recreational amenities complement the understated natural beauty of British Columbia's easily accessible Thompson-Okanagan region. While Tobiano seems as if it is worlds away from everything urban, it is only 15 minutes from the cultural amenities, shopping and services of the lively City of Kamloops. Near the junction of Western Canada's three most popular tourism highways (TransCanada, Yellowhead and the Coquihalla) Tobiano is just over three hours by car from Vancouver, Whistler and the U.S. border. Tobiano is an easy drive to Seattle and the scenic destinations of Jasper, Edmonton, Banff and Calgary. Frequent flights to Vancouver, Calgary and Seattle from Kamloops Airport connect Tobiano to destinations further afield. Over 2,000 hours of sunshine and less than eight inches of rain a year, Tobiano's dry hot summers and crisp winter days create one of the most desirable climates in the country.

About the Developer: By no means is Michael Grenier your average developer. Nor is Pagebrook Inc. your average development company. Astounded by the untouched lakeside acreage surrounding Six Mile Ranch, Mike purchased the Tobiano property in 1996 and moved from Toronto to live here in this vast open setting. He had big plans - starting with his own home at Tobiano - an award-winning example of post-and-beam architecture that fits perfectly within its natural surroundings. Applying the development experience and success of Pagebrook Inc. to the vision of Tobiano, Mike began the process of shepherding Tobiano through a labyrinth of reviews and approvals, expanding the Six-Mile alfalfa hayfields, improving the ranch's irrigation systems, building the first marina on Kamloops Lake and initiated the design and construction of the soon-to-be opened Tobiano golf course - all before the first selection of resort homes were offered for sale.
