About Port Elgin

The Town of Maples commonly known as Port Elgin is within the Municipality of Saugeen Shores. It has been a popular summer beach vacation destination (Lake Huron) since the early 1900’s and an active year round home to many residents; many of whom are employed at Bruce Power. There are 6 distinct beaches, a great commercial area and many extensive walking trail networks. The community is also internationally renowned for its spectacular sunsets.

What is the definition of a cool beach town?

Maybe it is a place where people go to relax, escape the hustle + bustle of the city, and walk barefoot along the sandy shores of beautiful Lake Huron. Perhaps it is home to stunning sunsets, quiet balmy evenings under the stars, and quaint-yet-vibrant local businesses. Port Elgin is as much about the beach as it is about its friendly residents, its community camaraderie and its endearing vibe. Port Elgin Real Estate comes in a variety of styles from small cottages located steps from the main beach to custom new builds, lakefront living to the perfect family address.

Small town living often means less people, less traffic, more green space, and a strong spirit of cooperation. It is the opposite of the anonymous lifestyle you’ll find in the city- a tightly knit social dynamic offers familiar faces, friendly neighbours, and a network of community support. The colourful local business scene is another huge benefit to living in a small town; not only does shopping local provide unique finds and quality services, it also means supporting your neighbours directly and giving back to your community. Port Elgin is a unique small town full of heart with real estate to match almost any type of buyer.
 
Port Elgin is a phenomenal place to put down roots, whether you are relocating your family, looking for a place to retire, or searching for a summertime escape from the city.
