My husband and I spent the weekend in Mattawa and skied Antoine Mountain Saturday and Sunday for the first time. We love to ski and always wondered what the hill was like. We were pleasantly surprised. It was really great! There are lots of runs to choose from and even though the parking lot was full and there's only one quad, the hill was not crowded! The conditions were great! We had two great days of skiing and hated to see them end! We also loved our BBQ lunches and après ski time on the patio! You should head out for a day or two of skiing or snowboarding if you haven't yet!

The Ontario Regiment RCAC Museum has a Historic collection of over 80 operational military vehicles including jeeps, trucks, carriers and tanks.
Reviewed By 2deang - Kitchener, Canada
If you are into tanks this museum is a must when in the area. This is a living museum where all the vehicles are operational. So on any given Saturday they hold a tank day based on a different theme and do reenactments. The best one is the Aquino weekend in June their biggest show of the year. They have an interesting small museum with the history of the Ontario Regiment and with the large expansion just completed there is lots to see! They continually add vehicles to the mix including new WW II German armour. An absolute must for Tank and military buffs....

Finally crossed it off of our list this was quite the journey from our cottage, over 3 hours one way, but well worth it. We had my Parents 68 and 70 and my children 6/8/13 and we all thoroughly enjoyed the day. The hike was short but we stayed for a while to take it the breath taking views. There is a number of scenic look outs at the top and every one just as stunning. We also explored the river down at the picnic area and canoe launch. Definitely recommend this shot trail if you travel east of Algonquin at all!

We went in the cold of winter, and thanks to jet lag were there really early to watch the beautiful sunrise over the falls. It was a magical, quiet morning, with great views and we really enjoyed our time at the falls - the sheer power of the water is something else! Another place ticked off the list, excellent!

We were fortunate to get a table right by the window.. the revolving restaurant has great views of the city as you are slowly moving... the coolest is to watch the flights taking off and landing into Billy Bishop airport.
7. Sleeping Giant Provincial Park

Located on a rugged peninsula of thick forests, several lakes, and high granite cliffs, this scenic wonderland offers nature walks, camping and fishing activities.
Reviewed By lauren5598 - Hamilton, Canada
Sleeping Giant is a beautiful park with great camping. The water front sites on the peninsula into Marie Louise Lake were stunning, and having your own steps down to the water and views of the giant. You could swim right from your campsite although the water was still cold in August. However, beware that the sites can be very windy which made it a challenge to set up a tent! During our stay we did the Sea Lion hike on one day which was an easy walk to a great view of the sea lion. The next day we did the Top of the Giant hike. This is a full day trip even if you bike, it took us 6-7 hours and we only stopped for a quick lunch at the top. Make sure you get an early start, we started at 9am and the trail wasn't busy, but as we came down from the giant the trail was getting very busy around the noon hour. If you choose to bike in make sure you have a mountain bike and are a confident cyclist as the trail is quite rocky and muddy in areas. The walking it self is very strenuous for just over a km, as it is a straight up climb. This hike is possible to accomplish in a slow and steady manner! Once reaching the top the views are spectacular, but be prepared to work hard to get there. I would definitely like to return to explore more of the park

Even though the park is beautiful for hiking and sight seeing, my favourite spot remains the Observation Tower, high above the forest, rewarding those who climb all the way to its top with an incredible view of the point where Huron Lake meets Georgian Bay, way on the far horizon.

We are a group of nature lovers and decided to book a cottage there for a weekend getaway. It was a unique experience for us. The cottage was clean, comfy, well furnished, and a decent place to stay. There’s also a nice restaurant close by. The highlight of the trip was the Canopy Walk tour, with canoeing and hiking. It was fun and we love it!! Ted and Page were amazing in their jobs. If you love nature and the outdoors, Haliburton Forest is the place to be...Lakes, forest, trails, wildlife...We got to see the wolves at the Wolves Centre and strong packs of huskies (for winter dog sledding). The staff were nice and very helpful. Be aware that there’s a swarm of mosquitoes (in June). Just come prepared. Other than that, it was our first time in HFWR and we had a great time. Highly recommended.

We are a family of 4 with children aged 7 and 9. We stayed a few nights at Blue Mountain and had a wonderful time. There’s so much to do; the Ridge Runner, mini putt, obstacle courses, play areas, gondola rides, movies in the square, shopping, or just sitting at the dock enjoying the outstanding views of the mill pond. We even enjoyed taking the shuttle to the private beach where we had a relaxing time swimming and kayaking. We were all able to walk far into the lake, because it’s a good distance before it starts getting too deep for the kids. Overall, we had a wonderful time making lasting memories with our kiddies.
