Additional information:

Niagara is home to World Class Wine. The gourmet food and wine culture is all around us. We are located smack dab in the middle of the wine route. Sample, shop or dine at any one of the beautiful wineries near us. http://winesofontario.org/

The "Prettiest Town in Canada" Niagara-on-the-Lake is but 20 minutes away. I actually lived there for a few years. It is pretty. And it has lots to visit. http://www.niagaraonthelake.com/

Shaw Festival Theatre has 3 theatres which offer the best of the best. http://www.shawfest.com

Golf at the best courses. http://www.golfniagara.com/

Niagara Falls!!! I almost forgot. Yes it's touristy, but they are truly spectacular! Not to be missed. Try a cocktail in the Blue Martini Room at the top of the Hilton. You can watch the lights on the falls at night. "Maid of the Mist" is a boat that will take you to the bottom of the great plunge. You can also go behind them. And much more.

Casinos in the Falls never stop! Concerts, amusements for children, restaurants and more! www.cliftonhill.com/niagara_falls_events/fallsview_casino_concerts

Lake Ontario and Lake Erie offer beautiful beaches, fishing, boating and plenty of water.

Toronto is but an hour's drive away. Art galleries, museums, restaurants, shows, and culture abound. It's a clean, friendly city to visit.

Fruit stands line our street during harvest.
