Traveler advice
What to pack
Dressing for the weather.
Great news, this part of Canada happens to one the the sunniest and has the most mild weather! Summers can be quite warm, so dress for warmth and sunshine. Fall and Spring isn’t very cold usually but can be wet, bring a rain coat/umbrella. The weather can change by the hour this time of year. Winter is wet and in December and January we typically get a few weeks where we sometimes get a few inches of snow, it melts quick and can be a bit messy to drive in. We will do our best to keep all the walk ways clear and salted in the event it snows during your stay.
