Winter is a time for cozy sweaters, hot cocoa, and making memories with your family. But who says it has to break the bank? In the Bay of Quinte region, we understand the value of your hard-earned dollars, especially when planning a family getaway. I’m a mom of three and me and my kids know first-hand the best spots to find family winter fun while making the most of our budget. 

With hotel stays averaging around $300 for two nights, you’re not just saving money – you’re stretching your vacation budget further, making every dollar count towards creating unforgettable memories.

Ready to explore how far your dollars can go on a weekend adventure in the BoQ? Let’s dive in!

CHILL OUT IN THE BAY OF QUINTE THIS WINTER​

Winter gets to the point where it feels like you have two options: give in to the desire to hibernate in a blanket burrito until spring or get out of the house, be social and try new things. Leaving the house in the winter doesn’t have to be all about bundling up and braving the elements (or it can be if that’s your jam—we do love a good hike around here). The Bay of Quinte region has a bunch of spots to hang out where you can still keep snug indoors.
