My wife and I did this last year and it was intensely fun. Incredible views and deep, DEEP river valleys. There's one line where you have the option to go upside down. Highly recommended.
Peachland also has the Waterfront. Not as swanky as the Gasthaus, but damn good pizza.

The Hell's Angels have a really nice operation with the weed over there as well. My in-laws have had a place in Peachland since the early 80's, and during the 90's when they lived in Calgary they rented it out. Not being able to check in all that often made it a prime candidate for a grow-op. The tenant was "contracted" by the Hell's Angels to provide product. Thankfully the jack-wad only set it up in the garage, so damage was minimal. When it was ultimately discovered by my father-in-law the tenant disappeared. There are rumours that he's not dead, but nobody has actually seen him in years.
My in-laws moved back in shortly thereafter, and for months they'd have very large, very angry bikers pounding on the door at all hours of the night looking for the guy. Pretty freaky.
