Nicknamed the "Jewel of the Kawarthas”, Fenelon Falls is home to lock 34 on the Trent-Severn Waterway between Sturgeon Lake and Cameron Lake. The falls are easily viewed from a nearby restaurant or from a path on the north band of the Fenelon River. This is a tourist town and makes a great day trip just 30 mins from . There’s cute shops selling clothes, crafts and antiques. Bonus: There’s also a yoga studio. Spend an hour or a day. Plenty to do.

Croissants, Crepes and Coffee - all better than what I recently enjoyed in Paris! We love the Shortis|s Cafe in Beaverton! Just 15 mins from the cottage but you’ll think you ended up in France! Great service, Awesome Food. ❤️ be sure to check them out.
