It’s always amazed me that a little restaurant in Meaford could have a line-up every night of the week. But it’s true and, it is called the Leeky Canoe. Some time ago, the Meaford Express ran a fairly substantial article about the restaurant but it doesn’t explain the success entirely. My opinion is that a) [...]
According to their website, Blue Mountain Resort, here in our beautiful Georgian Triangle area and just minutes from Collingwood, Stayner, Wasaga Beach, Thornbury and Meaford, Ontario, is open today! And even more amazing is that the golf course is likely to open this week-end. You could ski in the morning and golf in the afternoon. Blue [...]
I was showing my new listing on the 7th Line in Meaford the other day and was struck by the sound. Not highways or commerce or school bells though – frogs. And birds. Like a perfect little choir, singing to soothe the ears. There is something to be said for country living, isn’t there? [...]
If my Dad were still alive, even he would have approved of this house I’ve listed for sale in Wasaga Beach. When it comes to houses, everyone is a critic but nobody I’ve met was worse than my Dad. He was a fusspot of the nth degree and nothing was ever good enough and he [...]

This expansion will add an additional 64 acres of terrain, a new high-speed, six-person chairlift and six new trails in the south, Orchard area [...]
February 18th and is Family Day and there are all kinds of events planned for that week-end in this area. Blue Mountain Village as always offers plenty of family-friendly activities from ice skating and swimming to horse wagon rides and a visit from the Birds of Flight. Blue has also recently released a great little [...]
I’m an admitted, hard core Cuba junky and so, I found it interesting yesterday to read a report saying that they attracted an estimated 2.9 million visitors in 2012. Certainly when you go there for a visit, you can believe it as you trip over the suntan lotion, empty pina colada cups and jockey for [...]
Well, it finally had to happen. My prediction of a softening in the 4th quarter last month was wrong so far. Sales have not softened and in fact, the opposite happened in October. October boasted 217 sales in the area – the highest sales month of 2012! Actually, this is the highest number of sales [...]
