Winemaker's Tour

Bring your group for a tutored wine tasting! Specializing in award-winning wines made from native Muskoka fruit, our tastings are a unique, educational experience.

As your guide takes you through a tutored sampling of our wines, you’ll learn about wines, winemaking techniques and about the unique aspects of fruit wines. Available year-round.

Farm Wagon Tour

Family owned and operated for over 50 years, we are the oldest cranberry farm in Ontario.

From May to October, take your group for a guided tour of the marsh in a tractor-pulled wagon. Learn how cranberries are grown and harvested.

From May to September the vines grow, blossom and bear fruit. There’s always something unique to see!

During our October harvest the beautiful Muskoka Lakes area is awash with spectacular fall colours. Our crimson harvest is a one-of-a-kind experience!
