Your Winter Timeout
starts just 60 minutes from the city!

Check out these Great Escapes
and Getaway Specials

Our communities are a perfect place to take a winter timeout. Escape the grey of a big city to experience the wonders of charming heritage towns set in a pastoral wonderland – all found only 60 minutes along Highway 401, west of Toronto.

Enjoy winter indoors and out, with wonderful Inns and Bed & Breakfasts for a weekend couples or girls's getaway, and of course, extraordinary culinary experiences courtesy of our many fine chefs and restaurants!

Come enjoy an area of Ontario that is transformed into a magical glistening wonderland of snow dusted historic streetscapes and pastoral countryside. Whether it’s a mini-ski holiday with the family, an invigorating day trekking through the outdoors or a romantic weekend snuggled into a heritage inn with a roaring fireplace, we offer a warm welcome to accompany our fresh crisp winter airs.
