"The Chicago Of The North"

night in Collingwood, Ont
It would be proper to say that the town of Collingwood developed because of a need to expand land and water transportation services. Collingwood's natural harbour and the creation of the railway played major roles in the town's rapid early growth.
Near the Scenic Caves
Collingwood is a town in Simcoe County, Ontario. Geographically, it is situated on Nottawasaga Bay at the southern point of Georgian Bay
Collingwood was incorporated as a Town in 1858, nine years before Confederation and was named after Admiral Lord Cuthbert Collingwood, Lord Nelson’s second in command at the Battle of Trafalgar, who assumed command of the British fleet after Nelson's death.
