Our time together was spent sharing our love of NOTL and all of the creative geniuses that call this charming town home. Scroll down for the agenda, we know, it’s legendary.

Our guests #CheckedIn to Woodbourne Inn, a charming historical gem in Niagara-on-the-Lake surrounded by a beautiful landscaped foliage and rare trees. Each thoughtfully curated guest room was our home-away-from-home designed with plush linens, Persian carpets, and carefully selected furnishings to create a sense of understated luxury, while subtle modern touches—like ambient lighting and refined amenities—ensure convenience and ease. Best yet, their two-part breakfast is icing on the cake when you stay here. It begins with an in-room dining experience of coffee and a little treat, then head on downstairs to indulge in all the delectable morning tastes at the Inn.Â
