When exceptional design meets strategic digital marketing, big results follow. That’s exactly what we achieved for McKinley Beach, an 872‑acre master-planned lakefront community in Kelowna, BC. Our team delivered a custom website, visual storytelling through video, and an immersive digital experience that highlights the lifestyle and luxury of this premier Kelowna community.
In this case study, we walk through our process, key features of the development, and how video and web design worked together to elevate McKinley Beach’s online presence.
Project Overview: McKinley Beach Luxury Waterfront Community
McKinley Beach Waterfront Community – Official Site is Kelowna’s premier lakefront real estate development, combining luxury living, natural beauty, and modern amenities on the shores of Okanagan Lake. It features multiple neighborhood types, from luxury townhomes to large custom home lots, all within a resort-style environment.
Project highlights include:
- 872 acres of lakeview property and trails
- 6 unique neighbourhoods currently selling
- 1 km of swimmable beachfront and private marina
- Outdoor amenities like tennis, pickleball, fitness areas, and playgrounds
- Close to Kelowna airport, wineries, and city conveniences
The design had to clearly convey both lifestyle and luxury, visually and strategically, to attract high-end buyers searching for Kelowna real estate.
