If you stay in Scranton, I suggest that you check out the President Biden Expressway!

There’s a nice waterfront hotel in Erie that has beautiful views. I can’t remember the name but I think it’s a Marriott property.


We stayed there last summer. Beautiful views and an indoor and outdoor pool. Courtyard by Marriott and some good eating options within walking distance.

We stop in Dubois, PA -- the town has a nice playground for the little ones and the Fairfield Inn has a good breakfast.

We just stopped at Seven Springs on the way to Niagara. It adds an hour of driving and is only a third of the way there, but it's a great resort for kids and reasonably priced in the non-ski season. Stay 2 nights if you've got the time.

Thank you SO much for all your replies. We'll stop at Corning. I have heard about glass museum from several people, but could recall the name. We will definitely check it out!

I do encourage you to go further on day 1 as sometimes the border can take longer than expected and Toronto traffic can be really, really bad. You could end up with your second day taking much longer than anticipated.

I second this. We were in Toronto and the traffic was so bad, way worse than here
