About Balmoral Place Retirement Community
A member of Chartwell Retirement Residence
Balmoral Place Retirement Community is perfectly situated to take in all the four-seasons action ‘out there’ in Collingwood, Ontario. Only steps away from Black Ash Creek and the area’s extensive series of recreational trails, there is plenty to discover. Our retirement community is mere minutes from downtown Collingwood, and a short drive from the infamous Blue Mountain Ski Resort and miles of sandy beaches, offering plenty of opportunities to enjoy outdoor recreation all year long.

Insider reviews & perspectives
Comfort Life Review
Balmoral Place is an oasis of peace and relaxation, set on the outskirts of Collingwood, on a bucolic, tree-lined lot. Life here is set to only get better, as the community ages like a fine wine, and those who live here age in place. This is a community ahead of the curve, offering exceptional seniors' care for those wanting to settle in Collingwood. Opened in 2017, Balmoral Place offers independent living, as well as assistance with some daily living tasks, including dressing and medication administration.
The unique age-in-place ethos of the community allows you to pick and choose the exact type of assistance you need. The many charms of downtown Collingwood are just minutes away, and the Georgian Bay harbourfront is just down the street. The vibrancy of Collingwood is second-to-none, with its year-round activities, skiing in winter and water fun all summer. For all that, though Balmoral Place is planned as an oasis of peace and calm.

General Manager's Message
Rebecca Shore
From volunteering at a seniors’ centre when she was a child, to close relationships with senior relatives and supporting her mother through her later years, Rebecca Shore brings this personal experience to her role as General Manager at Balmoral Place Retirement Community. Rebecca joined Balmoral Place in 2020.
“I understand firsthand what an opportunity there is to make a life-changing difference for seniors and their families,” says Rebecca. “To work alongside people with the same passion is also a great gift.”
For the past decade, Rebecca has worked in senior living, joining the team at Balmoral Place Retirement Community in 2020 to oversee day-to-day operations, and support the Balmoral Place team working to create a safe and happy environment for residents.
“I’m inspired for the heartfelt care and genuine compassion our staff members have for our residents,” she says. “It gives me the greatest delight to see residents who were initially not interested in moving to a retirement residence, now laughing, engaged, and thoroughly enjoying their new home. I love when I hear people say they wish they had moved in sooner.”
