Collingwood:
located on the southern shores of Georgian Bay with close proximity to the Blue Mountains, the Town has developed into a major recreation area for the southern part of the province. Off the scenic shores of Georgian Bay, welcome to the ever popular four seasons playground of Collingwood. This historic port, just a few miles southeast of The Blue Mountains is the perfect year round mecca for recreation. Try your luck fishing in the downtown harbour or saddle up and cycle the Georgian Trail between Meaford and Collingwood. Glory in any and every water sport imaginable at nearby infamous Wasaga Beach. Wander the dramatic dunes on this breathtaking stretch of beach that is the longest freshwater beach in the world. Wonderful natural attractions are found everywhere in the area. There are lots of activities and attractions to keep the whole family entertained. Collingwood is blessed with a variety of landscapes and environments from our lush unspoiled natural beauty to the breezy hills of the Blue Mountains.  One never tires of the endlessly changing colours surrounding the shores of southern Georgian Bay, and exploring the shoreline that ranges from a marshy bird sanctuary to rock sweeping vistas and white sandy beaches. There are around a dozen golf courses within a half hours drive from historical downtown known as Hurontario Street that was once known as the Chicago of the North. There are over 60 km of trails where you can walk, bike, or ride horseback and you can link up to the Georgian Trail and Bruce Trail from our trails system. Tennis, boating, kayaking, rock climbing, fishing, hiking and extreme mountain biking are just some of the activities you can experience. Our many pubs and music clubs, a new live theatre producing live entertainment and our many fine restaurants providing both top quality live music from Jazz to Punk Rock and an abundant range of excellent food experiences to fit any taste or pocket book. Shopping Downtown Collingwood offers a variety of quaint boutiques with unique giftware and trendy shops in a restored heritage district that is a must to visit. As soon as the snow flies, the hills of Blue Mountain turn from green and dark blue to snowy white and the town is alive with visitors from all over the world who come to experience the joys of skiing, winter hiking, snowshoeing, ice fishing and snowmobile riding. Winter in Collingwood begins with Downtown Collingwood transformed into a Victorian street scene of yesteryear complete with costumed carollers and every store window decorated with scenes of Christmas past. Our Santa is the biggest, loudest and nicest Santa in all the land and he loves to sit in his sleigh outside Town Hall to meet all the children and hear their Christmas wishes.
