1. A County Experience
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 154 reviews
Exceptional tours of Prince Edward County that can include numerous experiences. While there are many tour companies in the County none have ALL 5 star ratings. Personally run by the owner who has extensive knowledge of the wineries, breweries and cider houses as well as the amazing history of the County, you will experience a truly memorable tour.

We spent a week with all of our family in Wellington & took them to Sandbanks Provincial Park a number of times as they all loved the wonderful sandy beach & facilities The Grandchildren loved it & had a great time. It is so large & safe for the children as it is shallow for a long ways. Bring chairs & umbrellas & sunscreen.

While a simple beach on Lake Ontario, it is right next to CFB Picton Training area where in the 1950's, models of the Avro Arrow were launched to test wing shapes.

We love going to Point Petre, no matter what time of year, it's beautiful. Unfortunately, hunters have been going there and not picking up their shot gun shells. It's sad to see all the garbage all over the beach. My kids decided to reuse the shells to make a beach Christmas tree was the best thing to do...

Amazing wines, Fabulous and knowledgeable staff and a family atmosphere! A Prince Edward County must!! The winery is set up in an amazing area, overlooking the sprawling vines. There is plenty of outdoor space to sip your wine, have a wood fired pizza and listen to live music. The staff is caring, very friendly and knowledgeable of the wine craft! A must stop in PEC!!

On a day trip to Prince Edward County, we happened upon "The Local Store" a wonderful store (converted from a barn) displaying hundreds of locally made crafts, art works, books, preserves and many other delectable or intriguing items. The staff are friendly and helpful, but not pushy at all. While the address indicates Picton, it's much closer to the eastern end of West Lake.
8. Lake on the Mountain

Lake on the Mountain is a unique geological formation with a wonderful view of the channel and ferry to Adolphustown across from the lake. We've visited many times over the years always taking visitors new to our area for a short visit. You may still be able to fish and canoe, but you must bring your own equipment. Nice place to stop for a picnic or even better support the Miller House and with seasonal craft beers and wonderful charcuterie platters to share to go with a nice glass of wine, a favourite among small groups...my favourite stop on our tourist route! The restaurant at the Inn by the Lake on the Mountain is a favourite of our sons to take his lady for special dinners.
