Families that play together, stay together!
Collingwood
Nestled in the shadow of the Niagara Escarpment and bordered by Georgian Bay, Collingwood’s Blue Mountain resort, situated about 2 hours north of Toronto, is Ontario's quintessential family destination. A haven for clans whose idea of family fun is a wee bit less intense than tearing down the slopes, ski-bunnies-in-training here can take advantage of the wide variety of lessons and activities available to childern in the resort-sponsored Kids’ Camp, while their parents get a much-deserved break. Or, parents themselves can enjoy learning to ski, or brush up on long-forgotten skills, thanks to lessons on offer and the high number of beginner and intermediate runs. After a day of playing in the snow, rally the troops for a dip at the resort’s indoor water park, before winding things down for a good old-fashioned family powwow by the fireplace. www.bluemountain.ca
