Day trip & overnight stay rec from Toronto: the storybook town of Picton 👒

We drove down to Prince Edward County for a day trip and visited Picton, an adorable town with more than two lakes (one on top of a mountain). Stopped for lunch at 📍Miller House Café, and stumbled upon a gem. If you’re looking for a restaurant that feels like a country club situation on a mountain with a view of the lake - this place is it 🤍

While there, try the flambées and the smoked local whitefish (it’s like a dip that comes with toasted bread)

Another local gem is the Lake on the Mountain Brewing Company - try their wheat beer 🌾 & cream ale

What I wouldn’t recommend is taking the Glenora Ferry to the other side - it’s much prettier on this side. We did take the ferry and then drove down to Napanee but there wasn’t much to do and it was nothing to write home about.

If you’re visiting Prince Edward County, plan to stay at least one night so you can drive around and experience the area. It’s so beautiful and a day trip doesn’t do justice.

Tulips are everywhere in Toronto🌷 My top two spots:

1. Musical Garden near the harbour (if you walk down from harbour towards Ontario Place you’ll spot them everywhere)

2. Exhibition Place: The first picture is from Exhibition Place, there are so many in this area. You’ll find tons around Liberty Village too - but my fav is the massive pink one at Exhibition

Happy spring! 🌸

Swipe for a #localgem: The town of Orillia, with it’s vibrant surf-spot vibe 🏄‍♀️ is also home to @lonewolf_cafe! We visited off-season so I can’t comment on what the place feels like during the summer but I imagine it’s full of tourists.

They have an adorable town centre/main “downtown” area by the lake, which has boutique stores & cafés. Perfect day trip destination or a pit stop on your way to Muskoka 🚗

#TorontoRecommendation: On the corner of Queen St. next to Trinity Bellwoods reside four of my fav shops. If you’re in the hood, check out:

1. Euclid’s Farm: for fresh, colourful flowers & bouquets, vases & other pretty things (pictured above)

2. Type Books: @typebooks is an independent bookstore with the coolest window displays and an amazing collection of books. I’ve always found a gem in here and the vibe in this store is always the best!

3. The Paper Place: A stationery lovers’ dream! From postcards to cards, puzzles, notebooks, journals and papers of all colours can be found here. To call this place BEAUTIFUL would be a total understatement. It’s one of the most lovely stores I’ve visited - perfect with a bell at the door 🔔

4. White Squirrel coffee shop: hole-in-the-wall coffee shop that will likely have you waiting in line to place an order. It’s a grab-and-go spot with great coffee, an always-cheerful staff and a faithful fan following!
