I just wanted to give all my readers an update about visiting Niagara Falls on the American side.

I’ve embedded a Google Map which shows you the Niagara Falls State Park, Maid of the Mist tour, and local hotels. It’s an interactive map, so feel free to zoom in and out.

The map shows you the locations of  The Sheraton, Comfort Inn, Seneca Resort and Casino, and a few others.  All are walking distance to the Rainbow Bridge and the Canadian border.

You stay in Niagara Falls can include both sides, American and Canadian.  One day can be spent on the American side enjoying the natural beauty of the park, the excitement of the casino or some of the other local sites.   A big attraction is the Cave of the Winds.

Then, the next day, grab your passport and your walking shows.   Get an early start to beat the crowds and head over to the Rainbow bridge.   The Rainbow Bridge is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week.   Enjoy a nice walking tour of the Canadian side of the falls.

But here’s a tip, simply walk along the park, cross over to goat island and make your way to Terrapin Point.  Terrapin Point is right next to the Canadian Falls.  Terrapin Point just reopened in June of this year.   It’s newly landscaped and offers one of the most truly beautiful views of the Canadian Falls!
