Make memories, not to-do lists! Spend time in Carleton Place with the people you love.
Itinerary for the Family
Enjoy this holiday season by making special memories, because time spent with the family is a precious gift in itself! Pack the family up in the car and join us on Saturday, November 23rd for Winterfest, with plenty of family-friendly activities to enjoy from 4-8 pm. Spend the afternoon exploring downtown Carleton Place, its parks and trails, go bowling at Chasin’ Turkeys, or just cozy up with hot chocolate and sweet treats from downtown donut shops! Capture your visit with Santa &Mrs. Claus photos from 4:30-7:30 pm at the Information Centre. Extend your stay by staying at The Comfort Inn & Suites, with continental breakfast and a pool for the family to splash in!
Itinerary for the Foodies
This season can be dangerously delicious for foodies! Bring a friend who appreciates food as much as you do and experience the seasonal tastes of Lanark County. Walk up and down Bridge Street and let the scents of roasted coffee and restaurants pull you in. Purchase locally produced maple syrup, craft beer from our breweries, specialty food products, or gift cards for cafes and restaurants, perfect for anyone on Santa’s nice list.
Itinerary for the Shoppers
Enjoy an afternoon or weekend away, Hallmark style! Call up your friends and make holiday shopping more than just an errand! Our historic downtown shopping & dining district has a variety of retail options, and you can plan your visit during any of our craft fairs and bazaars to find unique treasures. Don’t miss visiting The Real Wool Shop, or booking a well-deserved manicure or pedicure at one of our relaxing local spas. Quant cafes and restaurants await you afterward!
