Port Stanley Ontario

Port Stanley is a quaint town in the Central Elgin municipality of southern Ontario. With a growing population of over 2,000 people, this charming community can be found on the north shore of Lake Erie at the mouth of Kettle Creek. Its location has made Port Stanley an increasingly popular place to live among people who love the beach and the beauty of the stunning Lake Erie.

In the 17th and 18 centuries, the site of Port Stanley was regularly traversed by explorers and travellers, including François Dollier de Casson, René de Bréhant de Galinée, Jean-Baptiste Céloron de Blainville, and Sir William Johnson. For this reason, a part of Port Stanley was designated as a Natural Historic Site of Canada in 1923.

A Peaceful Community for Families

What was once a camping spot for explorers has developed into a thriving community with all the amenities every small town needs. With its skating arena, community centre, grocery store, hardware store, medical centre, and local public school, Port Stanley is a wonderful place to start and raise a family.

You and your family can always find something to do in this fun-loving town. With its full range of stores, shops, and delicious restaurants, you may feel as though you’re always on vacation. There are also lots of economic opportunities for those looking to start businesses in this vibrant village, as it is frequented by tourists during the summer. This is thanks to Port Stanley’s comfortable climate, picturesque beauty, and of course, its proximity to Lake Erie.

Gorgeous Waterfront Homes

If you were to take a walk from Little Beach, through the village up the West Breakwater Walkway, and around the pier to Main Beach, you’d see lots of gorgeous waterfront homes. Many people dream about living by the water with a beautiful view of the lake, a sandy beach, and fun weekends packed with swimming, sunbathing, and barbecues. This is a major reason why Port Stanley has such an active real estate market.

Though most people assume a waterfront property is outside their budget, that’s not necessarily the case in Port Stanley. There are so many different types of homes being built and sold in the area. This includes cottages, vacation homes, bungalows, year-round residential properties, and more. With this variety, the right real estate agent should be able to find a lovely waterfront home within your budget!

A Short Commute to Ontario’s Greatest Cities

There are plenty of employment opportunities in Port Stanley, especially in the tourism and hospitality sector. However, plenty of Port Stanley’s residents find work and commute to the surrounding cities. Thankfully, many of southern Ontario’s largest cities are just a short drive away. This includes a 20-minute drive to St. Thomas and a 40-minute drive to London.

You could opt to settle in these places, but not everyone’s interested in living the city life full time. At Port Stanley, you and your family have more space, freedom, and easier access to the great outdoors. You get all the advantages of living in a village without having to give up the great aspects of living in a city. What’s not to love?
