CMW PRODUCTIONS LOCATION manager Cheryl Uphill (right) gives a COVID bump to Judy Bedford of the Peachland Food Bank. The production company are using the vacant lots across from Bliss to park their trailers. Instead of receiving the fee for that, about $2,000, the owner of the property, Lakeview Construction, has asked the amount be donated to the Peachland Food Bank.

Peachland chosen as primary film location for Lifetime Network show JOANNE LAYH Downtown Peachland has been selected as the primary film location for a CMW Productions Lifetime Network show titled Romance at Crystal Cove starring Stephanie Bennett and Jesse Hutch. A location team began scouting the area last week, settling upon the Peachland Little Schoolhouse, Fitzpatrick Winery, Heritage Park and a couple private residences to stand in for Crystal Cove, a fictitious small American coastal town, so in addition to seeing production taking place downtown, residents can also expect to see the American flag flying in place of the Canadian flag while crews are filming. Setup for the film began Wednesday, with filming scheduled to take place at various locations over the next couple weeks, ending on Sept. 19. CMW Productions location manager Cheryl Uphill told the View they’re very excited to be shooting in Peachland.

Have a safe & happy long weekend!

Uphill said the Okanagan Film Commission was instrumental in bringing Peachland to their attention, as they’re the main resource production companies use when filming in the region. The film commission provided them with sample photography and location scouting photos from the area, and the idea took off from there. “We’ll show those to the creative team like the director and the production designer and then they’ll have a look at those pictures and say, ‘yes, Peachland actually does really match what we’re looking for,’” Uphill said. The film location needed to show small town life, which is one of the reasons Peachland was selected. “The picturesque, beautiful, amazing view with the lake in the background and all the locations along the lake is absolutely fabulous for production value,” Uphill said.
