Toronto's neighbor Mississauga has more than 480 parks and woodlands for you to explore. Stroll the Waterfront Trail, rent a boat at the marina or spend a day at the racetrack. It's also called Ontario's shopping capital, with everything from shopping centers and outlet malls to picturesque village-style shopping streets.

Port Credit area has 2 water fronts. The port section has the light house on the road and walkway on the shoreline. This also has the Snug Harbour restaurant. But there is a challenge with parking as there's only pay parking on the road. The other one is the J.C. Saddington park is a nice park with plethora of grass areas, seating benches, lake shore and rocky areasto seat and enjoy the views. Also it has 2 large parking areas. Very good view of the sunrise behind the solitary ship on the lake. It is really nice to have a walk during morning or evening.

We visited on a Friday evening to see a band called the Dreamboats. Amazing! High energy rock and roll from the 50s and 60s. Great harmonies. Excellent musicianship and stage presence. And family friendly. A must see if they’re near you. The theatre was set up cabaret style, so not a bad seat in the house. Acoustics were fine. We had a buffet dinner at Live - the in house restaurant which featured roast beef, chicken, pasta and salmon - all great for $35pp, including taxes and gratuities. Staff were super friendly. And parking? Free after 6pm. All in all we had a great evening. We recommend both the facility and the staff. And the Dreamboats.

Reviewed By travellerAnnaB

in the middle of the city, you can find this amazing place. I started going there when my daughter was 2, right now she is 32, still one of my favourite places to go for a walk or a bike ride. beautiful scenery, river and path which leads you to the great spots and views. Very busy during summertime, but great place for a walk or a bike ride. After 30 years it is still my favourite place in Mississauga.

Exquisite estate! A "stunning" heritage home decorated for Christmas. Loved the history and tour given by Christiana. Spanning four generations this Georgian style home had many original furnishings and artifacts to view. A great way to spend a few hours if you love local history and heritage homes. We really enjoyed our visit.

Streetsville is a beautiful little gem in the midst of a big city. It has retained its small town charm with few high rises and lots of quaint shops to check out. Excellent restaurants here. Also a beautiful park down by the river that is fun both summer and winter. Highly recommend visiting!

Hi everyone. Excellent location that I visit often - always activities and events happening here from late Spring until late October. Across the street is outdoor ice skating at City Hall from late Fall onwards throughout the Winter - great music too! Walk across the street to Square One shopping mall.
