Okanagan Falls (also known as OK Falls) is a community located on the south end of Skaha Lake in B.C. It is south of Kelowna, and past West Kelowna, Summerland, Peachland, and Penticton.
The community was founded in 1893 as Dogtown, which was derived from the name Dog Lake (“skaha” means “dog” in the Okanagan language). The current name derives from a small set of the falls that used to lie on the Okanagan River at the outlet of Skaha Lake. The falls have since been submerged beneath the lake due to the construction of a dam on the river.
