As the largest province in Canada, Ontario is comprised of vastly different regions and landscapes. To the north, you’ll find large swaths of forest, where polar bears roam and you just might catch a glimpse of the Northern Lights. In the south, you’ll find bustling cities and most of our Ontario vacation rentals. Ontario contains 40 percent of Canada’s entire population, in cities like Ottawa (the nation’s capital) and Toronto.
