Why Visit Haliburton in Summer?
There are many places to visit in Ontario during the summer. So, why should you choose Haliburton?
Easy Access
Getting to Haliburton is easy! We are approximately 2.5 hours from Toronto and 3.5 hours from Ottawa. Escape the crowded city streets and be at the cottage in just a few hours. It’s close enough for a weekend trip, yet rural enough to feel like a real escape.
Cottage Country Feel Without the High Prices
When people hear ‘cottage country,’ they often think of Muskoka, but the region actually spans a wide area of Central Ontario, including Haliburton and the Kawartha. Because these areas are less popular, it’s generally cheaper and quieter to rent a cottage here rather than in Muskoka.
Our classic cottage collection is ideal for budget-friendly travelers.
Unique Attractions
Haliburton is home to a few unique attractions you won’t find anywhere else. One of our favorites is the Haliburton Sculpture Forest, where you can see a unique collection of sculptures along a scenic walking trail.
Another crown jewel of the region is the Haliburton Forest, a sustainably managed forest that offers outdoor recreation, a research facility, and an education centre in one destination.
Finally, Abbey Gardens is a sustainable community hub where you can enjoy family-friendly attractions, hiking trails, local food, and educational experiences.
