Wineries & Local Tasting Experiences
Essex County is one of Ontario’s most relaxed and scenic wine regions, making it an ideal outing for couples staying at The Lakeside House. Just a short drive from the property, you’ll find welcoming wineries where tastings are unhurried and the atmosphere is easygoing and intimate.
Many local wineries focus on small-batch wines, lake-influenced terroir, and beautiful outdoor settings. Couples often enjoy pairing a late-morning tasting with a light lunch, or stopping by a vineyard in the afternoon before returning to the lake for sunset and a soak in the hot tub.
A Slower, More Personal Wine Country Experience
Unlike larger wine regions, Essex County wineries tend to be quieter and less crowded. Tastings feel personal, conversations are genuine, and there’s no rush — a perfect match for couples looking to slow down and enjoy time together.
