The Summer House - Our Favourite places.
Food scene
All the best places - Dine-in, take-out, patios and coffee to die for.
If we had one night out we would spend is at Highview 100% of the time. Eugene will take fabulous care of you. We have never had a meal here that wasn't extraordinary. Leaving without sampling from the cocktail menu is considered a crime at the Summer House.

This quirky café is legendary amongst locals and seasonal residents. The menu is fluid and everything, no joke, everything is fantastic. Local secret - It might look full when you walk in, but after you've ordered head past the kitchen and climb the stairs on your right to reveal another seating area and access to the rooftop patio.

Very popular during the high season, so call ahead for a reservation. Not known for its speed, expect a leisurely evening sipping wine, or a cold beer under the giant shade tree growing in the middle of the patio. When the sun goes down and the lights strung in the branches come on it is tough to beat.

Fabulous Beaches
World class sand and all the sun you can handle.
Don't be fooled, there are number of Beaches in Southampton to enjoy.
1) Southampton Main Beach - At the end of High Street
Stretching approximately 4 kms long this can be found a the end of high street. Although the beach itself is sandy, the water bottom ranges from pebbly to rocky to sandy. Water shoes are recommended for the rocky sections. The water deepens quickly near the giant Canadian flag gracing the Southampton shoreline, so it is best that children and those who are not strong swimmers head to the "South Beach".
2) South Street Beach - 2 Peel Street Southampton, Ontario
Further south, the sandy beach continues with shallow water and a sandy bottom. Family-donated benches are conveniently placed for resting, sunset viewing, star gazing and just plain sitting. Washroom and change room facilities are located half-way between the two. There are no beach shelters along the Southampton shoreline, so remember too slather on the sunscreen several times during the day, wear a hat and tote your fabulous umbrella to the beach.
