Summer Sunshine and Beaches

With the busy Bayfest weekends behind us, Sarnia is getting used to a slower pace once again. The hot weather has many locals flocking to the beautiful, clear beaches of Lake Huron. Canatara park is a large beautifully maintained park that is less than 2 kms from our hotel. Many guests go biking, walking and swimming there.

In and around town, we have a number of events keeping us busy and enjoying the warm sun. The Starbright Summer Festival returns to the Imperial Theatre for music and theatre lovers alike. For more information go to: http://www.imperialtheatre.net/,

With summer comes baseball and baseball tournaments are around the corner. Be sure to book your hotel stay in advance since this too, is peak season.
