South Marysburgh

Where nature leads the way

South Marysburgh stretches along The County’s southern edge, shaped by limestone shorelines, working farms, and protected conservation lands. The villages of Milford and Black River offer a quiet, grounded sense of place, where the landscape sets the rhythm of the day.

This is a corner of The County defined by movement through nature. Cycle lilac-lined roads, scan the shoreline for birds, or explore shallow waters where fossils and wildlife are often visible. At Prince Edward Point Bird Observatory, migration seasons bring a front-row view of one of Canada’s most significant birding sites.

Truly off the beaten path, South Marysburgh invites curious travellers to linger, wander, and discover a quieter side of The County.
