A weekend dedicated to slowing down!
Grab your favourite girls and escape to Sylvan Lake for a weekend of cozy fall moments, good food, and time to reconnect. Sip your way through local cafés, stroll the lakeshore, browse local shops, and soak up the colours of the season. Whether you spend the afternoon among the flowers or on the fairway, this getaway is all about slowing down, catching up, and enjoying a little time away together.
Day One:
Check In & Catch Up
Arrive in Sylvan Lake and settle into a cozy vacation rental like Casa Del Lago. Start your weekend with dinner and drinks at The Anchor Kitchen & Bar, then take a sunset stroll along the Lakeshore Promenade and enjoy the relaxed lakeside atmosphere.
Day Two
Coffee & Waterfront Views
Start the day at a slower pace with a seasonal latte, chai, or locally roasted coffee from Cozy Kiwi Cafe. Wander along the waterfront as the lake sparkles in the morning light, then browse local favourites like Peppertree and Company and Grounded & Rooted. Take a few photos along the boardwalk, admire the fall colours, and enjoy the relaxed lakeside atmosphere.
Flowers & Farm Charm
Head out for a scenic countryside drive and stop at Little Farm on Wall Street, a local flower farm known for its sustainably grown blooms and handcrafted soy candles. Stroll through the flower fields and browse their collection of cozy Mason jar candles.
Prefer the Fairway to the Farm?
Spend the afternoon on the links at one of the area's scenic golf courses. Tee off at Sylvan Lake Golf and Country Club, Meadowlands Golf Club, or nearby Alberta Springs, where rolling fairways, beautiful views, and a relaxed pace make for the perfect girls' getaway activity.
Dinner & Lakeside Moments
Gather for a cozy dinner at Moon Lake Brew & Dine and toast to a weekend away. Afterward, take a sunset walk along the shoreline, grab a warm drink at Lakeshore Cafe, and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere that comes with fall at the lake. End the evening back at your accommodations sharing stories, laughs, and plans for the next girls' getaway.
Day Three
Sip, Paint & Pack Up
Start your morning right by stopping into Fřeude Coffee for a cozy coffee break, or pick up a pastry from Sans Bakery. Before heading home, gather the group at Next of Kiln Pottery Painting Studio and spend some time pottery painting. It's a fun way to slow down, get creative, and create a unique keepsake from your girls' getaway.
The best girls' weekends leave you feeling refreshed, connected, and already planning the next one.
