We prefer to be on-hand for the pizza oven preparation as it takes a few hours to get the fire burning hot enough to heat the oven. The neighbourhood We are 75 minutes east of downtown Toronto, backing onto the Ganaraska Forest, steps away from Brimacombe/Oshawa Sky Club and minutes from the Garanaraka Treetop Trekking and Forest Trails. We are also in close proximity to the spectacular Cobourg beach, the heritage community of Port Hope with it's waterfront trails and just north of us is the Peterborough & the Kawartas where you will find a great mix of city and country living.
