Sightseeing

Nice hiking spot. Especially in the fall. you can put together a home that is 30 minutes or 3 hours but you're always close to your vehicle. A good place to see cliff swallows. I am an expert on this trail and can provide you with a map or directions. It's easy to get embarrassingly lost for a couple hours the markings are poor, but impossible to get lost permanently as there are a few surrounding farms

Food Scene

Great tasting pizza. 4 doors down. When you're having too much fun in the pool to fire up the BBQ then it's gotta be Pizza. And why not go with best tasting pizza in town? Also close enough to do pickup special and literally walk it home.

local watering hole and Chinese food. I suggest the takeout after swimming. it's 150m walk and a local family runs it.

Small Town Canada where everyone says hello. biggest town without a stop light? I don't know if that's true but you get the gist. very picturesque town with 2 ponds and the meandering Nith river
