Last year we had Celcia put down a reservation for us attending this year. We might have a possible conflict so we are keeping our fingers crossed we can make it. Hope springs eternal. We had so much fun last year and are looking forward to seeing everyone again.

Hi: mcdonner... Again this year there is no Sunday Brunch at Betty's. They are still open for Sunday breakfast though, and I believe they are closed Mondays & Tuesdays as well!!! Glad you'll be there. Alf

Call the campground & make a reservation. All that is necessary - let them know you are reserving for the rally.

As Jon said, just reserve a site at the campground. Once you're there & set up, stop by site #52. Alf will have a sign in sheet & will let you know about any updates. It's a fairly informal rally with few organized activities, the best kind IMO. Mostly, folks just wander around meeting new friends & catching up with old ones. See you there!

hi all, We are BigFoot owners looking at Escapes and hoping for a 23 at Niagara. Anyone know if we’ll see one there? Looking forward to meeting some Escape owners. Jerry

There will be a number of Escapes, as well as BigFoots at the Niagara Rally, but I don't know of a 23 coming. There will be one at the Algonac Rally (held this year at Lakeport State Park, MI) the week before the Niagara Rally.

Hi: All... Not sure if we'll garner a 23'er. The newest Escape I know of attending will be a 2024 21' NE, along with its proud owners Jack& Nancy from here in Ontario. Looking forward to see a good turn out for our rally. Alf

Sad to miss this one, as we won't have delivery of our new Escape in time to join.

If anyone wants any advice on the area or the best wineries to visit, let me know! I grew up across the river in Buffalo, NY and Niagara-on-the-Lake is one of my favorite places on earth. The wineries are delightful -- definitely try the ice wines, which were first created there -- and I highly recommend bringing your bike. You can bike between the venues and usually visit 4-6 in a single day pretty comfortably. Also, the town of NOTL is absolutely incredible! Visit Cheese Secrets, Beaux Chapeaux, Greaves Jellies (SO GOOD) and the theatres.

Enjoy, all!

Terrific landscaping, nice shops, carriage rides when I was last there and other entertainment nearby. Flower clock on the way to Niagara
On the lake on the way from the campground. Lots to do around the falls bedsides the falls which are great when they are Lighted at night. Won’t be there this year but hope to get back soon. Jackson Triggs winery was our favorite on the tasting stops we made.
