The Briars was a bed & breakfast located in Simcoe. You'll simply love The Briars.

This lakeside heritage resort provides refuge for guests among acres of lush lawns, gardens, towering trees and cedar hedges; our surrounding forests, fields and streams are home to a variety of wildlife, as well as a Scottish woodlands golf course and a live summer theatre in the old Red Barn. The Briars offers traditional country inn hospitality, with extensive facilities and services--just an hour from Toronto on the south shore of Lake Simcoe.

The Briars is a resort outside Jackson's Point on Lake Simcoe, Ontario, Canada. It is straight north of Markham, ON on Ontario Highway 48, or about a 45 minute drive north of Toronto's Highway 407 and Highway 404.

The property was named by its first owner around 1840. He named it after the property of a friend in St. Helena, the place to which Napoleon was exiled. The name continues with this resort and the Golf Club residing on the land.

Local dining options close to The Briars include The Boondocks Eatery.
