Thanks everybody. I can use this as I have some relatives coming from india.
Has any one been to any of these ? Any feed back on darlington or earl rowe ? I notice that these are closer to Toronto.
Thanks for the information. Do you have any information for the places where we can stay overnight. I have been to Niagra ...just wondering if some one can suggest some really good place around toronto for overnight staying too.
Many Thanks.
A great place to visit for a weekend.
1. About 80 Km from toronto. Close to Waterloo.
2. The town has a population of Mannonite and Amish people. These people do not use any technology in their lives - no electricity, phones, automobile. Still travel using horse buggies. There is a really nice horse driven tour which takes you to a mannonite village / house. We really liked it as we really saw totally different world.
3. The farmer's market here is one of the largest in Canada. Open only on Saturdays. Closes at 3 pm. Try apple fritters here.
4. Lots of bread and breakfasts and hotels in the area. We stayed at a Destinations Inn in Waterloo ( just 5 minitue driving from St.Jacobs.)
5. Visit the St. Jacobs town. restaurants are pricey. The museum is good.

Bluffers Park
Bluffers Park is positioned in Scarborough within the city of Toronto. It is a beautiful day use park with many picnic areas and picnic tables. Last summer my family enjoyed a very good time within this park. There is a nice sandy beach in this place. Our children love riding on the beach very much. The beach is big enough to host a volleyball match. You can check the site http://www.toronto.ca/waterfront/tour/bluffers_park.htm to gain more details about this picnic destination.
Went to Balsam lake prov. park this weekend , 130 kms from Toronto towards North. This is great spot for swimming (warm cozy water), , kids can play in the knee deep water,
, BBQ (you will find bbq spots with public grills installed and sheds , benches), lot of tree shades next to clear water beach so no darkening and peeling of your wonderful indian skin on mondays.
I found it much much better place than saubla, grand bend, tobelmory and wasaga.
