8 GO RESORTING GUIDE 2017 Endless variety is the name of the game in Ontario. There’s a resort for every possible taste—every resort is unique, each one has its own charms and special appeal. That perfect vacation is just a few short hours away. When looking for an escape to a family friendly resort, you want a resort that will thrill the entire family, from young children to restless teens to deserving parents. These resorts offer memorable vacations and getaways that children will have to be pulled away from, where parents can truly unwind, where cherished family memories will be fondly recalled for years in the future. You don’t need to go far to relax and reju- venate as a family. Ontario has a number or spectacular family-friendly resorts that fit the bill to a tee. Ontario’s resorts pride themselves on welcoming families by of- fering no shortage of activities for adults and little ones, exciting and yet safe envi- ronments in which to unwind, and staff that know the importance of a family vaca- tion and go out of their way to make yours truly special. What makes a great family vacation? - the comfort and seclusion of a private cabin, just steps away from the sun- kissed golden sands of a beach? - Perhaps a more luxuriant hotel-like setting, with the most modern of amenities—from heated pools to spas. - Do you want your children to have the freedom of entertaining themselves in a rustic setting, spending carefree days splashing in the water or learning to cast a fishing rod, - a dizzying selection of activities—from wall-climbing and kneeboarding to guided hikes and organized sports - to ensure even the most restless of little ones is constantly entertained? - a first time get-away with toddlers, a place to entertain easily bored teens, - a reunion destination where aunts and uncles and grandparents can join in your memorable experience, - or even a casual weekend for just the two of you? Ontario’s resorts have everything you could possibly desire, and more! Many families opt for large full-service resorts which see to their every whim and some have so much to see and do that you might be tempted to spend the week or weekend, and never leave its scenic prop- erty— and like many, return, year-after- year, to sample all the resort has to offer.
