Fall at Marrick's Landing

The fall brings brilliant colours, shopping opportunities and Studio Tours that you can participate in. There are quite a few golf courses in our area and as the temperature of the lake falls, it is also a great time of year to fish and land “the big one”.   Colours 'n' Crows Fall Tour Scarecrow

Join us in Burleigh Falls and Buckhorn for our annual
Colours 'n' Crows Fall Tour.

September 24 - October 10, 2005

The Fall has always been a beautiful time in our area due to our amazing colourful display of autumn leaves. But now we have added Scarecrows! Lots and lots of Scarecrows!   Scarecrows will be on display at businesses, resorts, community buildings and private residences throughout Burleigh Falls, Buckhorn and the surrounding area, and you are invited to visit the area, enjoy the sights and join the fun! Call for more details!

Through Canadian Outdoor Recreational Experiences (CORE), let us introduce you to the wonderful world of canoeing and/or kayaking. Take one of their lessons and you will learn:

  • All about your canoe or kayak and equipment 
  • Launching and landing canoes/kayaks 
  • Paddling strokes and maneuvers 
  • Lifts and carries 
  • Rescue techniques and safety 
If golfing is your passion, we are close to several golf courses from which to choose. Fall Colours

 

If it is a get-a-way you are looking for, look no further. Listen to the loons, walk to Burleigh Locks or sit by your campfire as the city fades into the back ground. Our fall rates are discounted from our summer rates or you can take advantage of our Fall Mid-Week Special. Visit us Sunday to Thursday - reserve four or five nights and stay one night for free!
