Bruce Pit
Dog park
👍👍 Best off-leash dog park in the area. Massive open space with some seating plus a huge amount of trails to explore. There is even a rainbow bridge to post your lost pup's tag which always brings tears to our eyes.

Chapman Mills Conservation Area
Nature preserve
👍👍 This is my go-to spot in the summer when I want to get out of the house, have a sunny walk, and maybe try to find some snakes in the tall plants. Very well maintained, quaint, relaxing.
The best time to visit is during the week as it can get busy on a beautiful summer weekend. Keep an eye out for t...

David Bartlett Park
Park
👍 Great dog park to use while visiting family. Not fully fenced so beware! Went in “winter” so it was quite muddy near the entrance but overall good space to roam. If your dog likes water ensure they have good recall when the ice is there, can be dangerous. Many friendly people and dogs but enough spa...

Apollo Crater Park
Park
👍👍 Great off leash dog park! They recently cleared out the lower branches of a bunch of trees at the north end, making the park much more open and easy to navigate while still leaving the trees in place.

Sheila McKee Memorial Park
Park
👍👍 The beach is a really nice place to sit quietly and skip rocks. It's pretty in the winter too. Echoing the other reviews, there is a rather steep gravel path that makes me a little nervous on regular summer days, but in the winter it's almost like an ice slide. Still, if you're willing to risk it, i...

Walter Baker Park
City park
👍👍 Attended my brother's wedding ceremony at this location. Nobody could ask for a more pleasant and serene location. Beautiful wildlife and animals, yet the 417 highway is so close yet not one noise from a single vehicle could be heard. Great spot to enjoy nature!

Pinhey's Point Historic Site
Museum
😐 This place is probably better to visit once pandemic restrictions have been lifted, as the museum is currently closed.
Access to the water is fairly limited and it's mostly a spot to have picnics it would appear.
However the remaining buildings are well-preserved and the interpretive panels offer...
