Going with 10-14 friends for a long weekend in the Summer. Went about 5 years ago, but that was my first time and really can't say I know anything about the area (it was a short stay).
Normally we'll go to a lake or cabin somewhere but a lot of the good ones by me were taken. Montreal is only 3-4 hours away and the exchange rate is real nice: about 1 Canadian dollar to 0.75 cents US. That could save everyone a few hundred dollars on the trip. Plus, Airbnb has a lot of well priced places, anywhere from $500-800/night for 5 Bedrooms. For a big city, that's not bad.
But, I need some information. All I remember is that Catherine St/Crescent St is where you want to be (if you're in your 20's and 30's).. but is that still the same? Is there a better area, or someplace on the upswing? Any tips on the area? Must-do things before going to Canada (One of which is buying liquor at the border, I remember) Also, any places to see, drink, eat, and get lap dances from would be greatly appreciated?
