NOTTAWASAGA INN

YEAR-ROUND EXCITEMENT UNDER THE DOME

If you are looking for a family getaway that has something for everyone any time of the year look to the Nottawasaga Inn in Alliston, Ontario, just 45 minutes north of Toronto.

The Sports and Leisure Dome, built in 1994, offers 70,000 square feet of recreation facilities with activities for every member of the family.

Kids can't keep their excitement under wraps when the enter the Dome and see the 18 Hole Jungle Quest mini-golf.

At $4.50 per person its a great value for 18 holes of jungle-themed adventure with statues of  various animals from the parrots and a gorilla that greets you at hole 2.  Use your putting skills through the turtles and get squeezed by the giant anaconda wrapped around the green.   Kids are thrilled to enter the temple and putt through the sarcophagi.  Take a peek into the mining cart at hole 8 where some gems are stuck in the ore.  Hole 11 features the alligator family that leads you past the Ceremonial skulls (hole 12).  Again animals complete the course with a tiger, yawning hippo and the funny monkeys. 

While you are being challenged on the mini-golf course, your family will get its first glimpse of 25 metre indoor pool with its 100 foot waterslide, rock waterfall, palm trees, beach and rainforest murals that make this a tropical paradise for all to enjoy. 

The pool complex also features two storey windows overlooking the Nottawasaga River, with a beach entrance wading area, water umbrella, large whirlpool and sauna.  Towels are supplied at the entrance of the Sports and Leisure Dome and a family change room offers the convenience of parents both being able to help change young children.  Separate change rooms are also available for older kids and adults.

Towards the end of the mini-golf course you'll have to hold onto your excitement as you view the Grand Games Room.  A change machine is located at the desk and once your family has finished putting - look out as the kids race to see which game they will test their skills on first.  Everything from basketball, pinball, arm-wrestling and numerous video games await those with the enthusiasm to enjoy these machines.  Air hockey and pool tables offer some friendly family competition and young children will enjoy taking a spin on one of the coin-operated rides.

Teenagers and Adults may also like to take in a game of indoor tennis located on the top floor or have a work out in the fitness centre which includes 3 indoor squash/racketball courts.  45 holes of great golf will have golfers feeling they have gone to heaven.  Hit the links at The Valley, a 27 hole course or The Ridge, a demanding 18 hole course.
