Father’s Day Fun-tertainment

From near to far, from here to there, fun things are everywhere in Niagara

Dr. Seuss was a smart man full of fun ideas and there is a lot of truth to his famous quote. There are fun things both near (walking distance) and far (driving distance – 20 minutes or less) from the Courtyard by Marriott Niagara Falls Hotel.

Purchase a discovery pass and enjoy two weekends of wine and culinary adventures at wineries across Niagara. Hop on over to Niagara Oast House Brewers Microbreweries are becoming just as popular as the wine in the Niagara Region. Our favourite is Niagara Oast House Brewers. From the friendly staff to their delicious hops. And it is easy to find – it’s past the old oak in the big red barn in Niagara-on-the-Lake. This popular microbrewery is listed in the Top Ten Reasons to Visit Niagara. Like Dr. Seuss said, from near to far, here to there fun things are everywhere in Niagara (okay so we took the liberty of changing his quote slightly, but you know what we mean). Treat dad to the ultimate present by pairing one or all of the above with overnight accommodations at the Courtyard by Marriott Niagara Falls. We’re in the “Centre of it All” both near and far from it all.
