Southcott Pines Park

1comment

Southcott Pines is a high end cottage subdivision of approx 600 cottages. It is built in the forest which opens onto one of the most beautiful private beaches in the world. Just past the park bench, there is a path running off to the right. For those who want to frolick on the beach this path goes there (about a 10 minute walk through the forest).

The guide

Where exactly

From Main Street (Grand Bend) take HWY #21 South (Ontario St) to Lakeview Ave (Just past the Catholic Church). Turn right onto Lakeview Ave. Go over the bridge and there is a parking lot on the right (Clubhouse parking lot). Leave your car there and walk across the street and you will see a path that runs along the old river bed. This is the cruising path. The main cruise area runs between the parking lot and a culvert (that allows you to walk across the river) about a 5 minute walk down the path. Just before the culvert there is a park bench. Most people just ist on this bench and wait. Many a has been received on this bench. This is a heavily wooded area and there are lots of dark spots for anyting you may want to do. Cross street: Lakeview Avenue

Cruisiest spot: At the park bench just before the culvert at Pinedale Road (which marks the end of the main cruise area).

When to go

Can be anytime day or night, however the main activity happens during the summer months or long holiday weekends. Best times: From 10 PM and on through the night. It can be hit and miss ... depends on the weekend. Just keep your fingers crossed for a warm night and no rain. Dates open: May through September with July and August being the busiest times.

Etiquette

Say hi and smile. This can be a dark path (especially if there is no moonlight) but it is very safe.

Safety

Since this is part of an exclusive gated community, there is a chance you may encounter a private security patrol, but as long as you act like you're supposed to be there (say that you're a guest), there won't be any issues at all -- just don't be belligerent and keep on walking.
