Snowmobiles at Elk Lake Eco Centre. Photo: Casey Cordeiro[/caption] Snow lovers rejoice! If you’re looking for cold days and warm nights; hot meals and cool events and attractions—look no further. Sledding country in Ontario is also resort country, and what that means is that your rides can be rugged (or not) but you can wind down in comfort—luxury, even. Local wine lists? Check. Hot tubs? Yes. Looking for rentals, dealers, or repairs? Vacation packages for families, couples, groups, and solo travellers? Yes, yes, and…. you get the picture (yes). The worst part of loving snowmobiling is waiting for the trails to open. And the worst part of being a resort-goer is the research. We can’t make the snow fall, but we can promise you it will. In the meantime, we’ve done the resort research for you. (All-season thrill seekers may find some summer favourites on the list, as many are also motorcycle friendly and/or welcome ATVers and personal watercrafts.) Here are 24 resorts across the province that welcome sledders through the winter season: we’ve included the area you’ll find each resort in, other winter fun while you’re there, nearby trails and snowmobile clubs, and some extra pearls of wisdom we’ve picked up along the (well-groomed, well-marked) way.
Elmhirst’s Resort, Keene, ON
The Elmhirst is a great place to stay for travellers looking to check out the TransCanada Trail this winter. This resort is a snow lover’s paradise, whether you’re looking to ski, skate, or snowkite (yes, there’s snowkiting!) The resort’s website features a whole section on “Free Spirit Adventures,” which should tell you a thing or two about their commitment to fun. Tip: Elmhirst offers an array of air adventures, including pilot training. Look into its unique line-up of available activities before you book. Region: Kawarthas Northumberland
