I'd heard of Sherkston Shores resort before but I kind of assumed they were using "resort" loosely. Well, when you think of "resort" in the beach setting sense, like in the Caribbean. Though this has a mix of of trailers, RVs, cabins, tents and luxury cottages and not hotel rooms and villas. But now with kids, I pay more attention to these things and looks like a fun place to take the family. Go there in the summer and Great Wolf Lodge the other seasons to get the swimming and water slide experience. One of these years I'll have to pay a visit.
It might be the closest thing to a family resort I've heard of or seen in Canada. And it's not just for kids, they have adult stuff to do as well. Anyway, it has miles of private beach apparently, on Erie, and then the beach at the quarry in the middle of the resort. Looks like the sand is actually groomed as it's run by a proper resort operator.
When non-Niagara people hear the word Niagara, they think of the actual falls, Clifton Hill/Fallsview tourist trap area, wineries, charming town of Niagara-on-the-Lake and maybe the gorge/whirpool. There's so much more in Niagara Region. I wonder how many visitors never set foot outside the city of Niagara Falls and just stick to the attractions there. Whether you go as a family or a couple, you could easily do a week + in the region and not get bored. Even if it's a few dudes who want to party, get lap dances/bang escorts, throw footballs at the beach, shoot guns, golf, ride ATVs, go fishing, etc., there's so much in the area to fulfill those activities. When I see a family walking around or at a table in some overpriced chain restaurant, I wonder if they are even aware what's outside the municipal boundaries of Niagara Falls. I would guess 99% made no plans to visit one of the fine beaches on Lake Erie (assuming they're on a few days vacation and not a day trip).
A popular travel blogger could easily fill a week doing fun, interesting and unique things that most people didn't know about.
And in regard to water parks, it's only in the last few months that it's come to my attention that there are quite a few hotels in Canada that have at least mini water parks inside. So, more than just a single slide. I was surprised.

This must be what matt above was referring to. But must be for an event, no? Not a regular thing?
