Day 1
What better location for a girl’s trip than Canada’s Most Notorious City – Moose Jaw. Grab a couple of friends and come on down or be a visitor in our own city. We have much to offer for seniors. Loads of activities to do in Moose Jaw for a fun-packed getaway. We have a variety of top notch hotels and lodging facilities. Arriving early before check in? How about a quick coffee at The Hive to plan your day. The Temple Gardens Mineral Spa is always a great place and location to stay. You can just park & walk to take in the sights and then do some shopping downtown. You can soak in the soothing mineral water at any time during your stay at the spa. For lunch check out the restaurant at the Grant Hall Hotel. The original architecture in their lobby and dining room are a must see! Following lunch stop by Prairie Bee Meadery located on the lower floor & sample their many flavours of honey wine. Next check out the escape rooms at Little Chicago Entertainment. You and your friends only have 60 minutes to find the clues, solve the puzzles and escape. Way too much fun with a ton of laughs along the way. They also have a board game cafe, axe throwing, and they serve cocktails and coffee!
How about just some shopping in Moose Jaw’s beautiful downtown on your way back to the hotel? For the quilters check out Quilter’s Haven located on Main Street. Then experience Past Times – a store with a great variety of giftware and Post Horizon Booksellers for the avid reader. If you’re in need of a new outfit or two, check out Cranberry Collective Boutique or Cranberry Consignment. Jillian’s Design Elements has great stuff to decorate or remodel your home. When it’s dinner time, head back to the hotel and enjoy fine dining at Harwood’s Dining Room. Then you can finish the night with a soak in the mineral water pool!
Day 2
If you’d like a light breakfast or quick coffee to start your day, Evolve Coffee Roasters won’t disappoint. Meanwhile, book a massage, pedicure or manicure at Sahara Spa. And you’ve still more places to take in before lunch! With all that walking you’ll want to check out Gemmell’s Shoes with a wide selection of dress shoes, boots, and runners for every occasion. A stop at The Perfect Find located downtown has beautifully made gifts for every season. At lunchtime check out the artwork and giftware at the Yvette Moore Gallery and have lunch at the Gallery Cafe. After enjoying your spa treatment stop over at Lions Creek for a free tasting and sharing of many fine recipes. If you have time, stop by the Western Development Museum and check out the many antique vehicles and ways of transportation and of course, the gift shop.
For dinner I suggest Hopkins Dining Parlour for a unique dining experience–great menu and you may also experience the haunted aspect of this building. SPOOKY! Following dinner, why not try your luck at Casino Moose Jaw. That should bring an end to a couple of fun-filled days spent in Moose Jaw. End your trip by just relaxing in the spa waters before turning in for the night. These have been just a few suggestions of some of the fun things to do in Moose Jaw.
