@PerfectWknds Travel Report: Bobcaygeon
C'mon to Bobcaygeon
The views are cinematic
And the many things to do here
Are truly fun fantastic!
Jason & Joanne touch on much of what makes Bobcaygeon ( a real Kawarthas gem. From the very kid-friendly Kawarthas Settlers' Village ( that brings to life the history of the people who founded the area, to the Boyd Heritage Museum ( that explores more deeply the cultural and commercial contributions made by this prominent Bobcaygeon family.
And then there are the shoes! If you want variety, you won't beat the selections available at Bigley Shoes & Clothing ( This giant shoe emporium includes a warren of storefronts along main street.
You will also enjoy browsing the huge array of bathing suits at Bigley Beach House just across the street from Lock 32 on the Trent Severn canal. Any one of these suits will be a perfect complement to your day of fun floatation on a watercraft from Buckeye Surf & Snow ( Renting a wakeboard and tow boat, a kayak, or a standup paddle board is an ideal way to enjoy the shining waters of nearby Pigeon and Sturgeon Lakes.
The big starry nights of Bobcaygeon, made famous by the Tragically Hip, are a dream setting for a show at the Globus Theatre at the Lakeview Arts Barn ( This summer theatre offers a range of crowd-pleasing productions, almost as tasty as a big scoop of Kawartha Dairy ( ice cream.
Overnight accommodations include bed & breakfasts, hotels, resorts, camping and cottages. Check out what makes you most comfortable at the Bobcaygeon Chamber listing (
Share in the Kawarthas' magic with a weekend of fun in Bobcaygeon. Because if you don't, that really would be tragic.
