and dynamic cities. Its location in proximity to the great outdoors and
recreational activities promotes an active and healthy lifestyle. Barrie
manages to achieve an important balance; with ample parkland, a

community-minded 'small town feeling', yet at the same time continues to
grow and prosper with all of today's modern conveniences, business and
development. With these benefits, Barrie is not only a wonderful place
to vacation, but an ideal spot to call home.
