Over the past couple of years we have enjoyed spending time in Niagara-on-the-Lake, so I thought I'd share a few things to do if you are planning a trip in the future. I would suggest visiting in the Spring and Fall, as they are the most scenic and also gives you lots of options for things to do.

Visit a Winery
Of course visiting a winery is a must! There are so many to choose from, and they all vary in style and taste. The best way to see them is on a bus or bike tour to enjoy the scenery and meet new friends along the way.

This particular day we visited Pillitteri Estates Winery.


Downtown Niagara-on-the-Lake
NOTL is a quaint little town with shops, historical buildings, and lots of delicious restaurants.
 

Niagara Parkway path
There are lots of paths to choose from through town, but my favourite is running or biking down the Niagara Parkway path that runs the whole length of the Niagara River.
 

Smuggler's Cove Boat Club
Smuggler's Cove is a tiny little boat club that you can find "off the beaten path" - literally. There's a small dirt road that leads down, or you can take the stairs to this peaceful spot on the Niagara river.

I spent the weekend at the Red Leaves Marriott Resort in Muskoka, and thankfully the rain held off and it turned out to be a gorgeous weekend. The scenery was breathtaking as the leaves had started to turn and we took full advantage of the view from our balcony.

Comfortable daytime look:
- Long sleeve t-shirt, worn-in jeans, flats, faux-fur vest, sunnies, hat, and minimal makeup

Evening look:
- Get dolled up for dinner with your favourite pair of heels. Use the environment as inspiration and pull out your favourite floral skirt and pink gloss.
