Fall in Love with Bronte

Fall is unanimously adored. Leaves come down like confetti, comfort becomes the key ingredient in every meal and cozy is the style of choice.

Not that you need another reason to love the season, but we happen to have five that will make Bronte your go-to destination as you take delight in everything that fall has to offer.

Reason #1: It’s a destination filled with life’s simple pleasures

Small moments add up to a perfect day:

• Take a free book from our Library ON THE GO Book Bike.
• Visit Taste of Colombia, Tim Hortons, McDonalds, Farm Boy or Chestnut’s Café and grab your favourite warm drink.
• Walk the pier and take-in the views of the harbour and experience the lakeside breeze.
• Rest your feet in one of our At Home in Bronte Muskoka chairs – read, drink, relax, repeat.

Reason #2: Our small businesses are the heart of the community

The 175 businesses that comprise our BIA are vibrant and unique. From cafés, bakeries and restaurants to boutique clothing and retail shops – and of course, services (graphic design, hair & nail salons, wellness clinics, recording studios, health care…we’ve got it all) – our hard-working business owners make it possible to visit, shop and support local.

This season, spend your time in our thriving commercial district and be part of Bronte’s local prosperity.

Reason #3: It’s walkable, safe and picturesque

Our pathways and sidewalks are wheelchair, stroller and feet-friendly. You can walk from Rebecca Street @ Bronte Road in 10 minutes or from Third Line and Oakville South Centre/bus exchange in about 20 minutes. Leave the car at home if you live nearby and enjoy the fresh air and fall colours as you stroll, sightsee and shop.

Reason #4: We have a waterfront that is celebrated by locals and visitors

Connect with the water in your own unique way – skip rocks at the beach, birdwatch from the bluffs, fish along the West Pier, visit the lake at sunrise, sip a coffee in one of our Muskoka chairs, picnic at the water’s edge or take pictures of the harbour views. Whichever way you choose to experience it, Bronte’s waterfront is waiting for you.

Reason #5: We’re a historic community that’s evolving

One of Ontario’s oldest communities, Bronte has retained its community feel, enhanced its thriving commercial district and preserved its heritage waterfront. The neighbourhood will continue to blend past and present as it transforms itself into an exciting community designed for the future:

• where city life and suburban waterfront living intersect
• where everyone is welcomed and everything you need can be found

As we delight in the changes that the fall season brings, let’s also celebrate the future vision for Bronte and how it can be its very best.

So, put on your favourite cozy sweater and visit us today. We can’t wait to welcome you!
