We were driving thru Perth and stopped at this park because I saw the Big Ben Monument. It is located in beautiful Stewart Park which provides a very pretty and relaxing place to visit. The park is located close to Hotels if you want to visit the Perth area and it provides an ideal setting for photographs of any type including wedding’s and anniversaries. There is limited parking close to the monument so I suggest you look for the official parking spot if you plan to visit

We found the sites were fairly private, the park was nice and quiet, well maintained. The hiking trails are neat we came across some deer and other animals. Definitely bring some bug spray. The Walk In beach is OK to cool down but is poorly maintained, if your going with kids be careful of the mussel shells and large rock.
The park store has most basic supplies.
We liked the sites they are in small gully's and have some growth around to add a layer of privacy. Might be a bit soggy in the rain though, I would suggest a couple extra tarps to be safe.

We have tried most of the beers from Perth Brewery through several visits from October 2016 through July 2017. Our favorites are the Bonfire Black Lager, the Honey Lager and the Mocha Stout. For seasonals, they also have a great selection. Our favorite - called Off Kilt-er - came out in the Autumn 2016. Hopefully they will have it again.
The beer here is excellent and apparently is considered gluten free. They support local business as well (e.g. their mocha stout uses coffee from Coutts and Co who roast beans right here in Perth).
The only unfortunate thing about Perth Brewery is they are often sold out of many of the beers. They are working on expanding their brewing capacity and will hopefully avoid this in the future.
BTW, if you aren't sure what beer you would by, they have a tasting station. Try them all!

We produce craft Vodka, Gin & Moonshine. We are also barrelling Whisky to be available early 2019. Our spirits are made on site from locally sourced ingredients.

This plucky little distillery is making a name for itself and bringing back a time honored tradition to Perth. Drop in. You won't regret taking the short detour off the Scotch Line road.

The plants are beautiful and robust, the grounds spectacular, and the staff very knowledgable and pleasant. And the highlight for me is is Art in the Garden every Father's Day weekend. Artists from everywhere gather and set up their spaces with exquisite art pieces - and people wander by and on the beautiful pathways past these lovely things - finally ending up in the plant nursery area. It's all very hard to resist - so mostly I don't.

Well appointed small house-based museum illustrates aspects of European life in the area, includes an eclectic geology display, has a nice gift (and information) store, and a small display describing Canada's last duel. Good overview. Friendly staff. Admission by donation.

This store has a good selection and their produce section is very good. But I find the store pricey, even just for every day items. I only shop here when I need something very specific that I can't get elsewhere... because of my budget!

The performance here was truly memorable. A poignant tragedy set in comedic form was delivered with believable emotion by well-reheared thespians who transported the audience to an Italian-American immigrant home where each generation has to deal with heart-wrenching choices about having to move away to...MoreThank you so much for your review.

Easy hike that goes to the Tay River. Fields, ponds, marsh and wooded areas are perfect for wildlife viewing. Very quiet and well maintained. Thank you RVCA for your great management! Observation tower enables a great view of Canada geese every spring and fall. Great little spot!
