6 Romantic Toronto Getaways for a Winter Proposal
"Spademan Tree Farm isn’t in the business of selling trees. we’re selling memories and traditions."
Less than an hour outside of the city, this little spot is a total escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. In the late 1960’s, the land was planted in Scotch pine and farmed specifically for Christmas trees. Breathe in the pine scent, revel in the silence, and allow your self to feel entirely present. Wagon rides, hot chocolate, cookies, and open fire pits allow you to embrace warmth this winter with your loved one in this serene forest setting.

Snuggle up in one of the many comfy spots throughout the spa and look out at the beautiful, vast landscape surrounding you. Nestled in the forest just outside of Quebec City you will feel like you and your partner are the only two people on earth. This intimate setting provides endless perfect moments of immense luxury. Any spot that gives you reason to spend extended periods of time in bathrobes in is automatically the best. psst.. we highly recommend the källa saltwater floating pool treatment!

a mixture of city and country, culture and curiosities. the drake Devonshire houses a beautifully eclectic collection of art and furniture, delicious food and friendly staff. with only a small selection of rooms, this boutique hotel feels like a home away from home.
