⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
- Kuma H“This place is about half an hour from Markham. This hidden gem boasts an exceptionally beautiful environment, with plenty of fishing spots both on land and from a boat. The pond is teeming with various kinds of fish, including Rainbow trout, Brook trout, Bass etc. The presence of trout, which thrive only in clean water, ensures that the fish here are safe to eat. Adding to the allure, there is a fine dining restaurant nearby, as well as barbecue areas, making it a perfect destination for individuals or families to enjoy.”
