Jarvis, Ontario – My Top 6 Picks

Jarvis, Ontario – My Top 6 Picks (the photo book also includes pictures in Port Dover)

Jarvis is located near the towns of Simcoe, Cayuga, Port Dover and Hagersville. Jarvis is strategically located at the junction of Highways 3 and 6. Jarvis has some excellent examples of brick architecture. Many of the historic homes were built after 1873. Many of the town’s restaurants and shops are clustered around the intersection of the highways. The majority of the buildings are red brick.
