A cute little town with restaurants, shopping, attractions, bakeries, etc.
If you're looking for a bit more excitement, the town of Bracebridge has a bit more hustle & bustle (for a small town) than the surrounding small towns. A bigger selection of restaurants, shopping, grocery, pubs/bars. Make sure to check out the waterfall and take a little stroll around town.

Food Scene
We loved the atmosphere and THE FOOD! Not only delicious, but huge portions. It's certainly a gem. Currently my favourite local restaurant. It's nice to leave with a fully tummy for a change!

A short hike through the woods & along the river leads you to this amazing waterfall. Bring your bathing suit to enjoy the whirlpool at the base. Be sure to go when the sun is high, as it runs through the woods. Our favourite place to soak and relax.

What can we say, we just love waterfalls!!! (who doesn't?) Upper & Lower Rosseau Falls is located in Rosseau. The drive itself is beautiful, let alone the destination.
