The best part about Grandview Lake besides the lake and the cottage is the area. There are great neighbours, quiet two-lane dirt road, acres of trees, trails and tree-forts to spin a lifetime of summer stories and myths. The cottage is close to two wonderful summer villages, (Baysville and Dorset), and a short drive (15 - 20 minutes) to larger centres and big resorts in Huntsville and Bracebridge. Baysville is six minutes away, with community playground, library (free books & videos, great chit-chat), ice-cream house, liquor store, five restaurants / bars, antique shops, two general stores, bakery, Friday Farmers' Market, plus a couple of summer festivals. Three minutes away is the Lake of Bays Sailing Club (inexpensive fun / companionship for ages 7-17, daily / weekly), free boat ride to Bigwin Island for good value lunch, a great golf course and spectacular views. Eight minutes away is Dorset - driving range, mini-golf, scenic tower, coffee house, Robinson's famous groceries, gifts & souvenirs, ice-cream, liquor store. Huntsville and Bracebridge have the big grocery and department stores, movie houses and theatres, waterfront restaurants and big resort dining. Port Sydney has a public sandy beach with a great view. More than a week's worth of memorable entertainment.
