11 years ago, I took a wonderful trip with my best friend and our daughters to Niagara On the Lake in Ontario Canada. We spent a delightful long weekend attending theater productions in the evenings and sightseeing during the day. On one of our drives from Niagara Falls back to Niagara On the Lake we stopped at the bequest of one of the daughters to take a photo of this wonderful house with the red door.
We were all charmed by the beauty of the home, the yard and the bright red door. Imagine our surprise at the name when we got “up close” to take the photo!!
A stay in Niagara on the Lake is best experienced at one of the delightful inns or bed & breakfast abodes you will find in the quaint town.
Our stay at the Highgrove was delightful.
Imagine returning everyday to this welcoming front door!
No trip to Niagara on the Lake would be complete without a visit to Niagara Falls!
Or a road trip –
that ends in a place like this –
and then, when you have stopped at more than one or two of these places – you tend to get a little silly –

Years ago, we drove from Cleveland to Toronto several times and drove on the Canadian side after crossing the bridge in Buffalo. It’s a beautiful drive. There’s also a doll museum there that was fascinating, even to my husband.

The village is such a peaceful place to visit after the crowds at the falls. Something for everyone in the city and so many museums to venture into. We missed the dolls.

Not sure if the B&B is still operating under the same name, but it was a lovely place to stay!

Those are two stunning doors. The red door is so vibrant. About 10 years ago, we visited the Falls with a friend from England, after attending a conference in Toronto. It’s always a fun time when visiting that region (and the Falls are remarkable).

That red door caught our eye on our travels back and forth between the Falls and Niagara on the lake, and we finally agreed to stop for a picture. 🙂

Love the post, Mary. The red door is striking along with the beautiful home and landscaping. Niagara Falls is something everyone should see at least once. Been there twice and I’d gladly go again if we get close – magnificent. The last photo is hysterical. 🙂

🙂 I loved staying in Niagara on the Lake and going to the local theaters in the summer. It is a great spot for a long weekend of wine, theater and sightseeing. The wineries always get me! 🙂 (I did that on a dare….)

I usually prefer red doors, but that yellow one against the charcoal grey is gorgeous. So many flowers everywhere, beautiful images.

Thanks for popping in to comment! They were fun places to visit, and the wine was lovely. I still have 2 bottles of “ice wine” waiting for just the right occasion.

It looks like a wonderful village! The doors and patios were quite welcoming!
I have only been to Niagara Falls once back in the early 80’s. Time will tell. Being down in the Mist of the Falls was incredible. I’d love to do that again with my sisters. I’m hoping to be able to fit it in this Spring while in NYC.
