    We had issues booking a site for many years and now my husband and I understand why. This park offers everything a nature lover seeks: hiking, kayaking, swimming and very spacious sites! All facilities are clean but be careful of the poison ivy since it is found on many trails and around camping sites.

    The beaches are spectacular and we found that most areas are pet friendly. We had no issues with noise and slept soundly. Upon our arrival, we were very happy to see a park restaurant where they served the best hotdogs. I kid you not! My husband had the chicken tenders and he liked them as well. I think everything from their menu would be winners.

    A nice spot - a gradual sand beach safe for children, warm water (unlike the Lake Ontario Sandbanks beach). theres a pay ticket machine for parking. It gets quite busy on nice days so go early -(10:00 am or before)

    This small ferry is a fun way to get from Adolphustown to Glenora in Prince Edward County. It is free and runs daily year-round.

    Great visit at Lighthall Vineyards. It was busy when we arrived with several groups enjoying tastings. The sommelier did an excellent job of managing the rush, speaking loudly enough that everyone could hear her descriptions of both the wine and cheese. The cheese was a nice touch and made for some interesting pairings. I loved Lighthall's 2020 Chardonnay, and my wife Legal Smile's sparkling Groove. We left with wine, cheese and local-made mustard. A perfect visit. Highly recommend.

    A brewery in wine country gives a twist and a change from the numerous wineries. Lots of beer selections are offered by knowledgeable friendly staff members with a very good lunch menu. Get a flight of 4 small beers to enjoy comparing.

    This was my first time at Point Petre and it did not disappoint. The pebble beach is located on lake Ontario and the sight and sound of the waves crashing into the pebble beach and the rocks was a beautiful sight to see. We did not see any signs for Point Petre. We drove to the end of Army Road where there was a patch of grass where we parked. We could hear the sounds of the waves from here. We walked the short distance along a short dirt road until we got to the water.

    Picton is the place to be. Great vibes, quaint streets with interesting and artsy businesses. The Regent has 400 seats which were filled to capacity for the live show we attended. Refreshments available including alcohol and very relaxed about taking food and drinks into the theatre. Great sound and visibility from every seat. A really pleasant community-minded spot which hosts all kinds of great events.

    This is a must visit for us every year. We walk up from the cottage and enjoy a few flights in the afternoon. A large variety of seating areas inside and out. The grounds are well kept and enjoyed on sunny days.
    Cheers 🍻

    We were there in the off season so we had to call the number on the tasting room door for service. The owner came right away. The dachshund ornaments in the tasting room were quite kitschy. The wine was good. Sure glad we had a GPS on our car because they are definitely off the beaten path.
