Here are my picks for the top girls weekend getaways from Toronto.
Eat and drink your way through Prince Edward County
Rent an Airbnb at one of the many small towns in Prince Edward County. These spaces should accommodate your entire squad. You can either book a wine tour or rent bikes and stop at the many small, artisanal food producers in the region. Don't forget to head down to the water for some R&R.
Pamper yourself at the spa
Toronto might have its share of day spas, but there's nothing like venturing out of town to a relaxing retreat. The Nordic-style Scandinave Spa at Blue Mountain is always popular with groups, but if you have a little more cash to burn, consider Ste. Anne's Spa in Grafton, Ontario.
Head south
The dollar may not be strong right now, but the shopping always seems better just beyond the border. But if you don't feel like wandering around the Walden Galleria, there's plenty to do in Buffalo, from premier art galleries to top-notch craft breweries.
Lounge lakeside
Brave Highway 11 and drive up to Muskoka for the weekend. Rent a cottage for you and your friends, or venture a bit north of Huntsville and go camping on one of the many pristine lakes in Algonquin Park if your crew is more adventurous.
Soak up some culture (and wine)
If you're going to Niagara-on-the-Lake, you can cram in lots of culture, drinking, eating and of course, gambling at the nearby Niagara Falls-area casinos. Stay at a locally owned B&B and check out the Shaw Festival, which bills plays and musicals suitable for a variety of tastes. To top it all off, you can eat and drink at some of the province's best wineries and restaurants.
