 Location

Oxbow Park Drive meanders like the river it hugs, resulting in residents who slow down and appreciate the pine-scented welcome home. For all it’s feeling like being in the middle of nowhere, this verdant neighbourhood is actually in the middle of something very special: Wasaga Beach, Ontario, home of the world’s longest freshwater beach. Take a look at the relative size of the lot at #636 below and enter your current location in the map at bottom for concise directions.

P.S. Obviously we love rivers and can wax a bit poetic when writing about our very own…but many others have been much more eloquent!

Here are some favourite quotes about rivers:

There’s nothing… absolutely nothing… half so much worth doing as simply messing around in boats.
-Kenneth Grahme, The Wind in the Willows

Who hears the rippling of rivers will not utterly despair of anything.
-Henry David Thoreau

I choose to listen to the river for a while, thinking river thoughts, before joining the night and the stars.
– Edward Abbey

Sometimes luck is with you, and sometimes not, but the important thing is to take the dare. Those who climb mountains or raft rivers understand this.
– David Brower

What would the world be, once bereft of wet and wildness? Let them be left, O let them be left, wildness and wet; Long live the weeds and the wilderness yet.
– Gerard Manley Hopkins 1844-1889

The care of rivers is not a question of rivers, but of the human heart.
– Tanako Shozo

Be like a rock in the middle of a river, let all of the water flow around and past you.
– Zen Saying

Rivers flow not past, but through us; tingling, vibrating, exciting every cell and fiber in our bodies, making them sing and glide.
– John Muir

Swift or smooth, broad as the Hudson or narrow enough to scrape your gunwales, every river is a world of its own, unique in pattern and personality. Each mile on a river will take you further from home than a hundred miles on a road.
– Bob Marshall

Rivers know this: there is no hurry. We shall get there some day.
– A. A. Milne, Pooh’s Little Instruction Book

What makes a river so restful to people is that it doesn’t have any doubt it is sure to get where it is going, and it doesn’t want to go anywhere else.
– Hal Boyle

I have never seen a river that I could not love. Moving water…has a fascinating vitality. It has power and grace and associations. It has a thousand colors and a thousand shapes, yet it follows laws so definite that the tiniest streamlet is an exact replica of a great river. – Roderick Haig Brown
