Wineries

This entire region is full of wineries, ranging from small, boutique establishments, to the large, mainstream estates (Mission Hill comes to mind)! Lake Country has a great wine route that one can tour however you desire! There are numerous wine tour companies (Sip Happens, MJ Tours), or simply bribe a family member to be the designated driver, and you can explore (and more importantly partake in tasting) at your own pace! Wine Festivals take place in September/October!
A stunning winery/restaurant located in the Lake Country wine region! Incredible views and photo ops! Most wineries in this area are all unique and wonderful in their own way! Much to choose from!
