In an Instagram Q&A, we asked locals to share their favourite places in the province for a girls' getaway. Out of the many destinations recommended, this spot received the most votes.

Prince Edward County is a picturesque island community situated on the shores of Lake Ontario.

With gorgeous beaches, scenic vineyards and historic villages, it's no wonder this spot is a go-to for girls' getaways.

You can spend your staycation exploring the quaint small towns such as Picton, Wellington and Bloomfield. Here you'll find amazing boutiques, cozy cafes and quaint inns.

During the summer months, Sandbanks Provincial Park is the place to be. Boasting three white sand beaches and majestic turquoise waves, you'll feel like you've taken a trip to the tropics with your besties.

Prince Edward County is known for its wineries, so you'll want to add some vineyard visits to your itinerary. Sandbanks Winery, Closson Chase Vineyards and Waupoos Estates Winery are all great options.

There's no shortage of places to stay in the County. Locals recommend booking a getaway at Wander the Resort — a lakeside retreat with Nordic cabins and a stunning new spa.

You can also enjoy a stay at places like the Drake Devonshire Inn, The Royal Hotel, The June Motel and The Lakeside Motel.
