All About Peterborough County
Less than two hours’ drive from Toronto, Ontario, Peterborough County is home to several lakes, towns, and Kawartha Highlands Provincial Park, as well as the city of Peterborough.

In the warmer months, Peterborough County is a hotspot for cyclists, and there are all kinds of paths and trails to explore.

The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Peterborough County
There are distinct seasons in Peterborough County, each of which brings a different reason to visit. Summer is typically the busiest season, especially over the holidays, when families come to take advantage of the parks, lakes, and picnic spaces. Little Lake in the centre of Peterborough is a great spot for fishing, swimming, and boating. Fall brings beautiful copper-coloured landscapes, sunny skies, and milder weather, as well as lower humidity. Rainfall is typically at its highest in spring, though this can be an ideal time for exploring the area’s many museums, galleries, boutiques, and restaurants. Winter brings cold, snowy weather: just 40 minutes north of Peterborough you’ll find a Nordic ski area that offers a huge variety of cross-country skiing trails for all levels, as well as snowshoeing and spectacular views.
