Comfort Country isn’t just a destination; it’s a feeling. It’s the crunch of gravel under your tires on an open country road. It’s the first sip of a craft brew after a day on the trails. It’s the local artisan who knows the story behind every piece in their shop. Situated perfectly between Toronto and Ottawa, we invite you to bypass the hustle and rediscover the joy of the unhurried life.
Beyond the quiet lies a vibrant heart beating with local energy. Comfort Country is a playground for every generation, where family traditions are born over scoops of local ice cream and afternoons spent at the Madoc splash pad. Our calendar is a tapestry of celebrations, from the roar of the demolition derby to the spotlight of the Stirling Festival Theatre. After a day spent navigating the winding trails or casting a line into our pristine waters, pull up a chair at our restaurants and bistros. Whether it’s a legendary burger at a roadside stand or a farm-to-table feast in a historic storefront, you’ll find that the best flavor here is the genuine hospitality served with every meal.
Comfort Country, situated half way between Toronto and Ottawa, provides families and recreation enthusiasts a paradise of year-round adventure. Come to Madoc, Marmora, Stirling and Tweed and discover our many destinations – get your photo taken in front of one of North America’s Smallest Jailhouses in Tweed, bring your kids to Madoc’s famous skate park, catch an act at the Stirling Festival Theatre or take in the breathtaking view of the Marmora Mine. There are destinations, events, amazing retail and shopping and so more happening year round!
Looking for something to do? There’s always fun events for the entire family happening in Comfort Country. The Stoco Lake Sled Dog Derby is held in Tweed the first weekend of February; bring your snowmobile, ATV or cross country skis and explore the Trans Canada Trail; take in the tastes and sounds of our agricultural fairs; from May through to October you can purchase local crafts, artwork and produce at the Madoc Village Square; tour the Hastings County Museum of Agricultural Heritage in Stirling; and so much more.
We invite to you Comfort Country to stroll along our revitalized main streets and visit some of our unique shops.
