Lower Fort Garry National Historic Site of CanadaHistory will unfold before your eyes at this restored 19th century fort where costumed staff recreate the 1850s in the Red River Valley. Come and meet the Governor of the Hudson’s Bay Company as he strolls through his garden, barter with the company clerk, sit in a tipi and listen to the whispers of ancient legends, and touch the coarse fur of a bison hide at the oldest stone fur trading post in North America – or, if you prefer, scour the fort for clues in a family scavenger hunt. There is something here for the whole family.Living-history programs run mid-May – Labour Day, 9:00 – 5:00 daily. Daily guided tours in English and French and motorized access for mobility challenged visitors available. Regularly scheduled tours are offered in September. Don’t forget to ask us about our Halloween and Christmas programs. The site is open to groups year-round for tours, weddings or meetings by pre-booking.
My wife and I visited this historic site on a Sunday morning in mid September . We parked our vehicle by the closed gate and walked to the buildings about 1/2 a kilometres or so away. No one else was at the site but since the gates were open we entered into the space within the walls. To experience being alone in a place of such significance in Canadian history was very emotional since I worked for the HBC and one of my ancestors was here in the 1860's. The resident cat came to sit with me as I absorbed the ambiance of this remarkable place. While I am pleased that Parks Canada allows people to visit this enchanting site when staff are not present there should be signage to indicate this is allowed and to provide parking closer to the site.

Larters at St. Andrews offers a first class golf facility with all of your interests in mind; 18 holes of championship golf, complete practice facility (driving range, practice greens and bunkers), clubhouse complete with coffee shop/lounge, dining room, meeting rooms and banquet facility as well as a full service pro-shop complete with a winter golf school. This incredible facility is located just 22 minutes from downtown Winnipeg, Manitoba.
I am a bit biased being a member, but I have played many courses in Canada and the US and can say that Larter’s is one if the best maintained and is challenging enough for scratch golfers as well as forgiving enough for us duffers. The restaurant is good and the servers are great as well as very friendly. Hats off to Chef Parry on the new menu choices this year. I recommend the Boston Brown (chef’s signature sandwhich!).
