Midland can be found on beautiful Georgian Bay between Port McNicoll and Penetanguishene, and boasts some of the most scenic and peaceful recreation in all of Ontario. Just over 150 km from Toronto, Midland is accessible by Highways 12 and 93, and enjoys a booming year-round tourist economy that peaks in spring and summer.

In the summer, cottagers prize Midland’s stunning harbour and remarkable waterfront, which looks like a painting come to life. Home to museums, boating, winding trails and wildlife, the Midland waterfront is not to be missed.

In autumn, the landscape is transformed into vivid brilliance by the changing leaves, which draws photographers far and wide to try and capture the moment.

But it is winter that truly transforms Midland into a winter paradise, covered in pristine white snow that glistens, beckoning snowmobilers and winter adventurists to enjoy the frosty outdoors. Families and young couples can often be found on Midland’s many ice rinks (such as can be found at the North Simcoe Sports and Recreation Centre), enjoying hot cocoa and marshmallows while skating outdoors.

For those that aren’t as enamored by outdoor recreation, Midland also offers stunning murals, terrific restaurants, and quaint antique shops with some of Ontario’s friendliest shopkeepers. With so much to offer, it’s easy to see why so many fall in love with Midland, and choose to stay.
