Welcome to Harwood! One of Vernon’s most established neighbourhoods, Harwood is quickly becoming new again as busy families and Okanagan retirees appreciate the convenience of being close to all services. Stretching north of the City of Vernon’s downtown core, between 27th Street and Pleasant Valley Road. Hardwood offers modest, charming older homes blended with established adult communities and family sized townhomes! In addition to being close to downtown and shopping, Harwood is also the gateway neighbourhood to Silver Star Mountain!
