Haliburton County prides itself on being a four seasons playground. Most people prefer the summer season and their ability to enjoy activities around the water. Others enjoy golfing at the many courses available that cater to both the beginner and the experienced golfer.  There is also live theatre and and many arts and crafts studios that one can visit.  Many others prefer the fall with its colours in yellow, red and gold. Others enjoy the winter season and the opportunity to down-hill ski, cross-countyr ski and snowmobile. Spring is a special time of year when maple sugaring is a key highlight.

Major towns are Minden and Haliburton with many other smaller towns and villages in the County such as Dorset, Wilberforce, West Guilford, Gooderham etc. The proximity of these towns and villages offer opportunities for dining, places to stay, stores to shop in, theatre to see and studios to visit – not to mention shopping for day to day essentials.
