Collingwood is a town situated on Nottawasaga Bay at the southern point of Georgian Bay in Ontario Province, Canada. The town is part of Simcoe County.

The city is a really popular recreation area because it is located on the shores of the Georgian Bay.

Sadly, residential developments within the east end of the town of Collingwood have been impacted by the odour and noise caused during ethanol production.
