A Place to Stay


One of the places I want to retire to is, in my humble opinion, one of the most picturesque places to visit in Ontario “cottage” country…Thornbury & Clarksburg. 

Clarksbu
rg is a quaint town with beautiful art studios filled with lovely paintings by local artists, and the neighboring Thornbury is
a posh yacht, beach, golf and ski town with the quaintness of upscale country (there is a yacht club, 3 to 4 private and public ski clubs in the area, as well as some very good PGA golf courses too), With some beautiful waterfront hiking and biking trails, there is plenty to satisfy those with an active lifestyle or those who enjoy fine art.

Can you imagine skipping rocks on the water..


Going for a relaxing boat ride...


Having a quick golf game...

Then strolling to the sophisticated quaintness of the main street in town for fresh mussels, seafood, local beef or apple pie (there are an abundance of apple orchards to pick apples with the kids). 



Here is a sampling of a typical beach country house…so quaint...

In the winter, the skiing in the area is fairly good too...

What a great place to stay...
