Port Hope Visitor Guide 2019
This is a place where you can slow down. If the weekend was a place, if the weekend was a philosophy, a conversation, a memory – this is where it would be. Port Hope is a place where you can shake hands with a farmer, snuggle a goat, take a dip in a cool lake, eat a meal fresh-picked from a local field, and breathe it all in. There’s room here. There’s quiet. There’s slow. And there are more ways to enjoy your day than weekends in a year. Come enjoy craft food, drinks and sunsets by the water. Explore quaint streets and scenic country roads. It’s the weekend.

FASHION FORWARD<br />
Turquoise Boutique<br />
The shops of <strong>Port</strong> <strong>Hope</strong> flirt with fashion<br />
from head to toe. From hats and sparkly<br />
tiaras (that’s right, you can dress like a<br />
prom queen with a tiara or big bling from<br />
Kenneth Bell), to fine linen breezy separates<br />
at Chez Maggay, and sweet dresses at<br />
Turquoise. And there’s an Aveda salon<br />
steps away at Faun, because you never<br />
know when you might like a fresh blowout<br />
and professional makeup application.<br />
We aim to please!<br />
