There’s nothing quite like fall in cottage country, with the crisp air, golden leaves, and peaceful stillness over the lake. To celebrate the season, we asked our Great Blue family to share their favourite fall views from around our Great Blue Resorts. From fiery forest reflections to cozy dockside mornings, here are some of the gorgeous shots from our Fall Views photo contest!
Bellmere Winds Resort
Overlooking Rice Lake, Bellmere Winds is all about sweeping autumn views that stretch for miles. The rolling hills and lakeside greens turn amber and red, giving golfers and leaf-watchers alike the best seat in the house. The views from up top are truly something to see and photograph!
Lisa shared some photos, including the gorgeous full moon, saying it was “the last full moon of 2025. We sat at the beach last night watching it rise and it looked absolutely perfect as it sat over the very still lake. I will miss these views so much over the winter.”
Golden Beach Resort
Golden Beach lives up to its name in the fall. The long sandy shoreline glows beneath a canopy of turning trees, and the nearby fields and forest paths invite long, peaceful walks. It’s the perfect blend of vibrant nature and cottage comfort as the season winds down.
Lantern Bay Resort
Tucked along the Severn River, Lantern Bay shines in autumn. The calm current carries reflections of orange and rust-hued maples. It’s a peaceful, storybook setting that captures the magic of Muskoka in every frame.
Brendan shared his thoughts on fall at Lantern Bay, “10th year at Lantern Bay. We hate to say goodbye to summer, but we embrace autumn due to the beauty of the colors.”
Shamrock Bay Resort
Fall at Shamrock Bay means crisp mornings, cozy fires, and brilliant colour all around. The mix of pine and maple along the Trent Severn Waterway makes for unforgettable views, whether you’re paddling at sunrise or taking in the scenery from your deck.
Bonnie Lake Resort
At Bonnie Lake, fall feels like a painting come to life. The forest that surrounds the private lake bursts into shades of gold and crimson, mirrored perfectly on the calm water. Whether you’re hiking the trails or sipping coffee on the dock, the colours here make every moment worth capturing.
Thank you to everyone who shared their photos and helped us capture what makes fall at Great Blue so special. We loved seeing your unique perspectives on these beautiful resorts, and we can’t wait to see what you share next season!
