A harbour village with beaches
The harbour still has a commercial freshwater fishery, and the Port Stanley Terminal Rail runs heritage trains up the old London and Port Stanley line toward St. Thomas (not from mid-December to mid-April).
Main Beach, with lifeguards from July to September, has flown a Blue Flag for years, one of the first beaches on Lake Erie to earn it. Little Beach is a smaller spot popular with young children, and the Port Stanley Festival Theatre plays in the old town hall on Bridge Street.
What comes up for sale
Port Stanley has one of the more varied markets in Elgin: detached homes and bungalows in the village and up the hill, a noticeable number of condos, and a few waterfront properties. Anything near the lake or the creek needs extra homework (bluff erosion, flooding and conservation authority permits), which our Lake Erie shoreline guide covers.
