Killing time before the ceremony? The Gravenhurst Wharf has lots of little shops and restaurants, a dockside indoor market, and a walking trail out onto a lovely little peninsula (at the very western edge of the wharf's bay).
At the cottage, weather permitting, there's lots of outdoor space! Two docks for lounging & swimming, lots of deck and lawn space to sit and talk, walking trails through the woods directly across from our cottage entrance...
If you're staying in the area for a bit, downtown Gravenhurst is very cute and has an exceptional vintage store (it looks like it's just old music and instruments - don't be fooled). But if you're willing to drive, downtown Bracebridge is (in my opinion) even better to spend a day exploring. Check out its used book store (The Owl Pen), the big candy shop, and all the little boutiques lining the street.
The ceremony will be held on the steamship Wenonah II, but we'll meet at the Gravenhurst Muskoka Wharf, Bay St, Gravenhurst, ON, P1P 1G7.
There is free parking at the wharf.
The reception will be held at 1270 Brydons Bay Rd, Gravenhurst, ON, P1P 1R1.
It's about a 10 to 15 minute drive from the wharf. There will be someone at the cottage to help you find a parking spot.
