The city of Burlington lays at the foothills of the Niagara Escarpment and is surrounded by conservation areas, vineyards and Lake Ontario. Credit Valley, Halton and Hamilton Conservation Authorities all have sites near Burlington. Bronte Creek Provincial Park and the Bruce Trail also provide residents with fun and picturesque nature areas to further explore around Burlington.

Hop on the Bruce Trail at Limehouse Conservation Area in Halton Hills. This area (with admission paid by donation) is great for bird watching and walking the dog. Open daily, from sunrise to sunset, come see the historic structures at Limehouse Conservation Area, 12169 Fifth Line, Limehouse, Ont.

Visit “Scotch Block Winery” on 10th Sideroad just outside Milton and view the escarpment as never before and even enjoy a wine tasting. Pop into the farm in the heart of Halton and try free samples and maybe find dad’s Father’s Day gift! Visit http://scotchblockwinery.com/ for this Milton vineyard’s full wine list.

Kelso Conservation Area, immediately north of Burlington, has changed over from a nordic to summer playground.

Testimonials

  On behalf of Jennifer and I, we would like to thank you for all of the hard work you put into finding us our first home together. It is very reassuring to find someone who really takes the time to make sure that every little thing is done right. Jennifer and I spent months looking for a place to live. We both had very specific requests which didn't always make it easy for you.

By taking the time to ask us the right questions you were able to find our dream house. I must say that you went above and beyond taking a large amount of your time showing us different properties. As I'm sure that you would agree, I am very particular and I like to see every house that is out there before I make a decision. I have worked with REALTORS in the past that were only concerned about "closing the deal" and earning their commission. I never got that feeling from you. I always believed that you had our best interests at heart. I would not hesitate to call you in the future if we are looking for a larger property or investment property. Your knowledge of the Hamilton-Burlington market is quite extensive.

Jen and I are extremely happy and would recommend your services to anyone interested in purchasing a home or investment property.

Adam Berti, Hamilton, ON
