Date Night Destinations: Where to Go This Valentine's Day

It's Valentine's Day; have you got your date night planned?

For new residents and late planners, Next Apartment has some great date night destinations for you!

For the adventurous couples, why not try snowshoeing? At Hiawatha Highlands in Sault Ste. Marie, you can rent some snowshoes for a romantic trek through one of the two amazing snowshoe trails available, or book an evening tour. In Aurora, Sheppard's Bush Conservation area is the perfect snowshoeing spot, and it's only 5 minutes from our apartment building!

Valentine's Day isn't the same without a romantic dinner. Treat your loved one to a mouthwatering meal at Antico Ristoranté in Sault Ste Marie. Start with drinks at the bar and watch as chef Arturo Comegna creates some of the finest food in the city! For our Aurora residents, Aquagrill or Bijoy's Restaurant, just minutes from Millwell Properties, will wow your loved one with an amazing experience.

Try a romantic skating date under the stars this Valentine's Day. In Sault Ste. Marie, the Art Jennings Speed Skating Oval on Elizabeth Street is lit up at night and offers a heated changing area. In Aurora, enjoy an evening skate on the well-lit outdoor rink at Machell Park. Don't forget to stop for some hot cocoa afterwards to warm up!

If you'd rather stay cozy and warm indoors, consider treating your loved one to a spa experience. Book a relaxing massage for your loved one at Greenhouse Spa in Sault Ste. Marie, or take advantage of their Suite Retreat Valentine's Package and enjoy a 60 minute side by side massage and an overnight stay with champagne or wine!

If a couple's massage isn't something you both want, treat yourselves to a hotel stay instead. The Edward Village Hotel in Markham, just 20 minutes from Millwell Properties in Aurora, offers beautiful rooms and an on-site sauna, whirlpool, and indoor swimming pool. The hotel also has a restaurant and lounge, perfect for a nightcap!

Whatever you choose to do this Valentine's Day, Next Apartment hopes you have a great experience!
