Hi:

From Ontario Niagara area, any ideas from others who drive to and from wdw for a town to stop at on the way home? Like to only stop one night and then home the next day.

Summersville/Beckley WV is roughly the half way point. A lot of people like to stop there....they have several nice hotels and restaurants.

When we drive we will do one very long day (16-18hrs) and then stop for the night so that our next day is short. We usually make it just to inside the Penn stateline before we want to stop. There have been a few times that we got to the Grove City area and then just decided that since we were only a few hours from home we would just carry on. BTW, we leave WDW around 4-5am.
 
Princeton, WV. It's about an hour south of Summersville. We stay in the Holiday Inn Express. Hot breakfast in the morning. There's a Bob Evans and a Cracker Barrel at this stop (I know...at what exit isn't there one of these?). WDW > Princeton is about 10.5 hours and then Princeton > Burlington, ON is about 9 hours.
 
I would recommend Beckley over Princeton, WV. They are pretty close. Beckley has nicer hotels and restaurants. We stay at the Holiday Inn in Beckley.
