When are you going to book your stay? #ontarioAirbnb #uniquestsysontario #exploreontario #highlandcows

Unapologetically Canadian. 🥧 If you’ve never had a butter tart, you are missing out!! 😍 A flaky pastry shell filled with a lucsious, buttery, caramel-like filling. ❤️ Some are plain, some have raisins or pecans, and bakeries across Ontario have created countless delicious variations. 🇨🇦 Follow me as I eat Butter Tarts across Ontario this summer! Happy Canada Day! ❤️🤍 #buttertarts #localfood #exploreontario #canada #canadaday

Please use the paid parking lot and avoid parking on nearby streets or blocking driveways. 📍 Sunset Beach, St. Catharines
🕘 8:30 a.m. – 9:00 p.m. Would you watch the sunset here? #DiscoverNiagara #HiddenOntario #ExploreOntario #SunsetBeach #LocalDiscoveries
🇨🇦 I’m a little obsessed with Ontario’s small town 🇨🇦 I’m a little obsessed with Ontario’s small towns. ❤️ Save this post for your summer adventures… stay tuned for more great spots. ✨ Niagara-on-the-Lake is ridiculously charming. Surrounded by wineries. Great local shops, and more than a few ghosts haunt this historic town. ✨ Dundas is surrounded by nature, great hikes and waterfalls, plus a cute downtown. Stop by for a yoga class with me! ✨ Port Dover is a laid back beach town with some of the best local eats that you’ll find. Just avoid Friday the 13th when up to 200,000 bikers decide to visit. Will you visit Ontario this summer? #smalltown #exploreontario #summer
