With the Hwy 403 & LINC in minutes, and two power-centres on either end of town, many commuters settle in Ancaster, while Big Box stores make shopping convenient. Known for its charming interior core along Wilson St., Ancaster is picturesque and quaint, with the Old Mill, Fieldcote Museum, Tennis Club and Hamilton Golf & Country Club in the heart of town. Numerous restaurants, independent shops, churches & small businesses create a sense of community. With a stunning downtown core, a weekend visit to the bakery, ice-cream shop, cheese shop or chocolate shop never disappoints! The Ancaster Heritage Day Parade & Road Race, Autumn Stroll, Lobsterfest and the Ancaster Fall Fair are a few annual events that welcome all members of the community.
