The Summer in Bayfield Ontario

By: Rob parker

When it comes to old-fashioned charm and beautiful outdoor attractions and scenery, one cannot go wrong when planning a visit to Bayfield, Ontario. For more than a century, visitors have been attracted to this idyllic region filled with tree-lined streets and breathtaking outdoor attractions. Situated next to Lake Huron, Bayfield is also a prime destination for those looking for water-based adventure.

One of the major attractions of Bayfield is its quaint main streets, which are home to an amazing array of clothing boutiques, shops, and art galleries. Here you will find anything that your heart desires in the many unique shops that line the picturesque streets. When you get tired of shopping, Bayfield also offers many footpaths and walking paths that are great for sightseeing and taking a stroll down to the marina.

Another great attraction is the Folmar Windmill. This operative windmill is used as both sawmill and gristmill, and is open to the public during the summer months. The windmill is situated among rarely traveled country roads that meander throughout farmlands and woodlands. There are many streams and meadows nearby which are great for fishing and picnicking as well.

Many summer festivals take place in Bayfield and neighbouring communities. The Blyth Festival, the Stratford Festival, and the Huron Country Playhouse are all renowned for showcasing Canadian drama. Also a short distance away is the community of Goderich which Queen Elizabeth declared to be the prettiest town in Canada.

In addition to all of these attractions, Bayfield offers many community treasures such as the Huron County Museum and the Huron Historic Gaol. The gaol (county jail) hosts guided tours led by costumed interpreters during the months of July and August. The gaol is one of the oldest buildings in the area and was constructed from stone blocks pulled from the Maitland River. So whether you’re into sailing or sales, seeing a play or seeing a gaol, Bayfield Ontario on Lake Huron has something to offer.
