Grand Bend Accommodation For A Great Lakes Holiday In Ontario

By Ruthie Calderon


Grand Bend is one of those idyllic beach holiday destinations that are located along the Canadian shores of Lake Huron in Ontario. It's a summer hotspot in the Great Lakes region, attracting tens of thousands of visitors every summer from places as far away as New York, Florida and Texas. That's why it's best to look for and book Grand Bend accommodation as early as possible.

One of the key necessities for this kind of holiday is a good place to stay in a nice location. In this case, that means a large vacation rental or a luxury hotel offering a view of the lake. Needless to say, not everyone has the kind of budget that these high-end properties need.

That said, there are still a huge number of options available for people with all kinds of budgets. Main Street and the streets close to it have quite a few rentals. Many offer partial lake views, and they are close to the waterfront while being easy to reach for travelers. This is just as true for people driving in towards the center of town using Ontario Street or the Bluewater Highway.

A whole bunch of inns, B&Bs, hotels and motels can be found lined up along Ontario St. As it nears the center of town. Some more are on the other side for those driving in using the Bluewater Hwy. All of these properties close to the town center are suitable for visitors who are staying for a few days and want to explore the entire area and all its attractions.

Speaking of attractions, one of the main things that draws people here is the Motorplex. The Grand Bend Motorplex hosts Canada's oldest and largest drag race, and it draws huge crowds too. People who are in town for this may want to find campsites, RV parks and budget lodging within easy reach.

Otherwise, the big draw for visitors is Lake Huron. People come here for the beach, and for fishing, watersports, boating, hiking and other waterfront activities. It would no doubt be nice to be able to find accommodations offering a view of the lake and easy access to the water.

For families and large groups, a private vacation rental offering a view of the lake will be ideal. For example, a three-bedroom home that sleeps 6-8 people is perfect for a large family. It offers more space, amenities and comfort as compared to a hotel or motel, and it's far more economical too.

Before booking it, make sure the property offers standard amenities such as well equipped kitchens and adequate parking spots. Cable, music systems, Wi-Fi, DVD players, microwaves and refrigerators are quite common. Many homes also offer pullout couches for families who need more sleeping space. Some might even have maids, drivers, cooks and other help on call to assist guests as needed.

Such places need to be booked a good 3-4 months ahead of time for summer holiday stays. If not, it will be almost impossible to find suitable accommodation at the last minute for a stay in Grand Bend. Booking it in advance also helps ensure that the holiday will be enjoyable and hassle-free.
