Unparalleled Design, Location & Lifestyle
The Artisan at Lora Bay is located right in the midst of Ontario’s premier four-season playground. Water sports, cycling, tennis and golf, as well as gravity sports like skiing and mountain biking are big attractions here, as is the bucolic yet sophisticated lifestyle that extends through charming towns and villages up and down the Georgian Bay shoreline and far up onto the Niagara Escarpment. Welcome to active living, private ski and golf clubs, festivals, countless beaches and time-outs on clean, pure water that stretches to the horizon.
Private Beach on Georgian Bay
The Artisan on Lora Bay is located on a small cover where each residence has its own stretch of boulder-strewn sandy shoreline where breakwaters can be installed for calm water docking and mooring. 120+ feet of frontage gives ample access to the uncommonly clean, clear waters for which Georgian Bay is famous. Paddle about in the calm, motor or sail for hours or days at a time, or watch the dark beauty of a fall storm rolling in from the high perch of your living room.
Golf, Skiing & Dining
Secluded though it is, the Artisan is just a three-minute drive from the surprisingly sophisticated restaurants and shops of Thornbury. Meaford is 10 minutes away, and Collingwood is 25. Hop in the car or cross Highway 26 on foot or by bicycle to access Thornbury and Meaford via the Georgian Trail. The excellent Golf Club at Lora Bay is just a stone’s throw away.
