Here are the hotels you'll want to stay at in Prince Edward County.

Drake Devonshire

Situated on a private beach amongst Joel Loblaw-designed grounds, this hotel is an all-season retreat in Prince Edward County. The boutique hotel has 13 unique and beautifully decorated rooms that offer a modern twist to the classic country inn. 

Menus at the onsite bar and restaurant are inspired by the seasons and highlight local farmers and wineries. You can rent cruiser bikes, embark on a curated wine tour, cozy up by the firepit, or peruse the hotel’s permanent art collection or a rotating exhibit.
