Settling Down To The Sunsets In Bayfield
Join friends and family for an evening on the shores of Lake Huron and enjoy one of the most beautiful sunset vantage points in the world. No kidding! It is amazing how many people have heard of Bayfield, Ontario, Canada just because of its famous sunsets. But beware! Your exploration of Bayfield may begin with a sunset and end with a real estate purchase and a moving date. Live in or around Bayfield and enjoy all the pleasures that the shoreline of Lake Huron, Bayfield and Grand Bend have to offer.

Whether raising a family, retired, looking for community involvment or just looking for a community with spirit, a tremendous number of central and southwestern Ontarians are relocating from the mega city of Toronto and surrounding areas. And many are choosing the Bayfield, Grand Bend area as their new community. The reasons vary, but the benefits are numerous.

Bayfield has the appeal of a quieter lifestyle with all kinds of amenities close at hand. The tree lined heritage streets of Bayfield come complete with that "old town feeling." There is a charming historic atmosphere created here by the quaint shops, restaurants, boutiques, craft galleries like Marten Arts Gallery, and places to stay such as the well-known Bayfield Village Inn. Bayfield North Antiques and Collectables, the Spa in Bayfield, Turner Gallery and The Little Inn of Bayfield help to create the ambience of days gone by, preserving the past for some and creating new memories for the young families of today.

Grand Bend is yours to discover as you travel along this Canadian Lake Huron shoreline. People have been visiting and moving to Grand Bend since the 1800's. What is all the appeal? For one, the hundreds of miles of beaches that provide hours of fun for people of all ages. A brand new public school is looking for young families to continue the growth and development of this thriving village. Activities and entertainment are in abundance when you live in and around Grand Bend. Fine dining, sky diving, the Huron Country Playhouse, sailing & powerboating, camping, golfing, drag racing, spas and of course there is always great ice cream to be found somewhere on the beach strip.

Residential living options abound from the small quaint cottage to larger modern homes with interesting and unique architecture. The pine forests and wildlife of the area and the sandy shoreline create an array of ambience for your choice of residential living.

The shoreline stretching between Grand Bend and Bayfield, and on over to Goderich, is only 50 minutes from the city of London where you have access to three major hospitals, larger shopping centers, the University of Western Ontario, Fanshawe College, Centennial Hall, The Grand Theatre as well as many larger corporate and industrial employers. A little something for everyone and only 50 minutes from your "home base" along the tremendously beautiful shoreline of Lake Huron!
