Good Gettaway Ideas
So I am trying to organize a gettaway for my mom and her five sisters and was wondering if other macinsiders could recommend any of their favourite spots. Preferrably in Ontario as one of them has young children. Any spa locations, resorts, etc?

OOo and I found something we students could enjoy! Check out this website for good discounts on local attractions: http://scarlett.redflagdeals .com/w...-last/clipped/

Milcroft Inn is supposed to be really, really nice...I'm not sure how costly though. Apparently it's one of the best Spas in Ontario...and has lots of pretty scenery and supposedly very good food.

Trip Advisor has lots of suggestions: Shaw Festival, Niagara-on-the-Lake, renting a place in Muskoka...

Also, contact Tourism Ontario. If you fill out the forms on this page, you get stuff in the mail in less than two weeks. I think I actually got it in three days.
