😮 Could a Gondola, Zipline or Sky-High Lookout Be Coming to Wasaga Beach? Town launches RFEOI for potential signature aerial attractions as part of Destination Wasaga

⛱️ One of the GTA’s favourite summer road-trip destinations is exploring new attractions that could give visitors a whole new way to experience Wasaga Beach — from above. Mayor Brian Smith and the Council of Wasaga Beach have approved the release of a Request for Expressions of Interest (RFEOI) inviting qualified proponents to bring forward ideas for potential signature aerial attractions as part of the Town’s Destination Wasaga Master Plan.

“This is the kind of idea that gets people talking,” said Mayor Brian Smith. “A signature aerial attraction could give visitors another reason to choose Wasaga Beach for a day trip, weekend getaway or family vacation, while supporting local businesses and strengthening the year-round tourism economy.”

Potential concepts could include a gondola or cable system, zipline, aerial park, elevated walkway, canopy experience, observation structure or another innovative aerial experience.

Interested vendors can review the full Request for Expressions of Interest (RFEOI) and submit applications through the Town’s Bids and Tenders platform: wasagabeach.bidsandtenders.ca

Canada’s housing market is starting to wake up this spring after a long winter that kept many buyers and sellers on the sidelines.🌷While economic uncertainty and global tensions are still weighing on consumer confidence, activity is beginning to pick up again.

📊 According to the latest Royal LePage Home Price Update, the national aggregate home price reached $812,900 in Q1 2026, down 2.0% year over year and flat quarter over quarter, reflecting a slower-than-usual start to the season.

🏡 More buyers are expected to return to the market this spring and summer, especially those looking to secure a home before their mortgage pre-approvals expire. At the same time, a more cautious pace is likely to keep both sales activity and price growth in check, supporting balanced conditions in several key markets.

🔍 Curious how your local housing market is performing? Read the full report on the Royal LePage blog.

BREAKING NEWS: Refined Design Unveiled for Proposed Marriott Hotel on Wasaga Beach Waterfront

The refined design for a proposed Marriott hotel on Beach Drive has been unveiled, marking an important step in the Town’s planning review process and the continued evolution of Ontario's summer playground.

The proposal represents one of the most significant private-sector investments in Wasaga Beach’s history.

The premium Marriott-branded hotel is the first phase of a broader multi-phase development led by Sunray Group of Hotels that will include:

➡️ A full-service Marriott hotel with premium accommodations
➡️ A year-round restaurant and indoor-outdoor gathering spaces
➡️ Event, meeting, and wedding facilities
➡️ Wellness amenities, including fitness and pool facilities
➡️ A full-service spa offering relaxation and wellness experiences
➡️ Ground-floor commercial uses, including shops, cafés, and restaurants

As part of the project, Sunray Group would also deliver a new public Festival Square adjacent to the hotel — a flexible outdoor gathering space designed to host events, performances, and community programming, bringing energy and year-round activity to the heart of the waterfront.

The project could create more than 100 local jobs and is intended to support increased tourism, including longer stays and higher-value visitation—benefiting businesses across the community.
