0Watertown-Area Day Trip
Looking for a sweet way to spend a fall day? Consider starting your day with a visit to the historic Burrville Cider Mill. The cider mill, located on the outskirts of Watertown, features cider, apples and produce, fresh cider donuts, mums, cheese curds and mulling spices. The mill, located on the north branch of Sandy Creek, also has its own 30-foot waterfall and viewing deck. Grab a hot cider and donuts and to historic Thompson Park, in the city of Watertown. You are greeted by a 360 degree elevated view of Watertown as you make your way through the park. Winding paths and stone stairways through wooded areas make this an exceptional place to take a stroll. After that, take a short drive to the village of Sackets Harbor to shop, eat, drink and take in the harbor view of Lake Ontario or wander the historic War of 1812 Battlefield.
