“With fresh air, panoramic views and a vineyard or organic farm around every corner, Ontario’s picturesque Prince Edward County is the perfect spot for a (hedonistic) fall road trip.”

Prince Edward County is a picturesque island 2 ½ hours east of Toronto. Once a quaint, insular pocket of tourists, folks and farmland, it has more recently become a destination for food and wine lovers, art enthusiasts and sun worshipers. At the Merrill Inn, we deliver personalized service, and will go the extra mile to ensure that your time in The County is memorable. We want you to come back! There’s never a shortage of events – almost every day of the year. We’ll be glad to fill you in on what’s happening.

The Merrill Inn is located in the heart of Picton, within walking distance of specialty and antique shops, restaurants, the historic Regent Theatre and picturesque Picton harbour.

Visitors to the County, Ontario’s newest wine region, will find a vast array of recreational activities such as scuba diving, boating, fishing, cycling, hiking, golfing and horseback riding.

Conservation areas and Provincial parks provide excellent opportunities to explore the scenic beauty of our island community. Outstanding beaches, nature trails and significant bird and birding areas (recognized by Birdlife International), are wonderful diversions.
