Niagara-on-the-Lake residents still have the chance to see their home included along the 2025 Holiday House Tour route. 

Returning for its 26th year on Dec. 5 and 6, the NOTL Rotary Club is looking for homes to include in the tour.

Chair of events Nancy Bailey told The Lake Report that historic homes are always enjoyed by guests on the tour.

“Niagara-on-the-Lake is known for our history and our beautiful homes so that’s the sort of criteria we try to fill,” Bailey said.

The tour is also interested in homes that may be built to look historic, as well as unique modern designs, she said. 

“We just love to showcase homes and we’re proud to do that.”

Bailey noted the tour is the Rotary Club’s largest annual fundraiser.

Proceeds from the tour directly support international and NOTL charitable projects, including NOTL Palliative Care, the Niagara Pumphouse Arts Centre’s Healing Arts and C.A.R.E Program, the Friends of Fort George summer student program, the NOTL Museum’s expansion program and more. 

The Holiday House Tour donated around $89,800 in local charitable donations and another $78,100 internationally from the 2023 fiscal year, Bailey said. 

“People are really making a difference when they donate their homes and when they come visit on a holiday house tour,” she said.
