01 - Arrive

The place itself

Stirling Ridge Lodge is a lodge-style retreat property in Prince Edward County, Ontario — one of Canada's most celebrated wine and wellness regions. Set within the County's distinct limestone landscape, the lodge offers accommodation and retreat experiences in a region known for its Sandbanks dunes, working farm wineries, culinary scene, and growing wellness destination profile. Prince Edward County is a peninsula on Lake Ontario between Toronto (approximately 2.5 hours) and Kingston (45 minutes), accessible by road or via the Glenora Ferry. The landscape combines Lake Ontario shoreline, working farmland, and the Niagara Escarpment geology — an environment that supports both deep nature connection and proximity to the County's vibrant arts, food, and winery culture.

How the days go

  1. Drive into Prince Edward County

    The approach to PEC — via the Glenora Ferry across the Bay of Quinte, or by highway from Trenton — is itself part of the experience. The flat limestone landscape, farm gates, and vineyard signs begin the County rhythm.

  2. Settling into the lodge

    Stirling Ridge Lodge provides the base for a PEC stay — confirm room details and what's included directly at stirlingridgelodge.com.

  3. PEC wine country exploration

    Prince Edward County's wine trail — Wellington, Hillier, Waupoos, and the County Road 8 corridor — is within easy reach. The County's limestone terroir produces internationally recognised Chardonnay and Pinot Noir.

  4. Sandbanks Provincial Park

    The largest freshwater sand dunes in Canada, a 20–30 minute drive from most PEC accommodation — swimming, dune walking, and the dramatic Lake Ontario western shore.

  5. Farm tables, galleries, and the Millennium Trail

    PEC's culinary scene, arts galleries, and the 47 km Millennium Trail cycling and walking network complete the County experience beyond the lodge.
