Tiny vacation rentals

Tiny isn't so tiny

The town of Tiny isn't really all that tiny and wraps around the southern shore of Georgian Bay in Ontario. It's a charming place, with friendly folk that welcome the hordes of summer families descending on the Tiny vacation rentals between June and August, making the population swell to double its size. Tiny has a little slice of everything, from historical museums both on and off the water, more outdoor adventures that you could shake your hiking stick at, some of the best birding marshlands in the country and 70 kilometers of shoreline.

Explore the calm waters of Tiny

There's more than 70 kilometers of shoreline to explore near your Tiny vacation rental, so it's no surprise that most of the activities take place on water. There are few things better than launching your kayaks into the calm bay on a sunny summer's day and paddling along the shoreline. If that doesn't get your heart pumping, how about wakeboarding, kite surfing or tubing? Back on dry land, the boardwalks and trail systems make for scenic woodland walking and there are lots of cycling trails if you want to see it all from the back of 2 wheels.

Tiny's population swells in summer

The best time to pick up a Tiny vacation rental is between April and May, or September and October. During these shoulder months, the weather is warm, the skies are bright and there are far fewer other travelers to contend with, meaning the prices of rentals is lower. The peak season is the summer months, when the town bursts into life and the temperature sky-rockets, both of which come at a price. Travelers almost entirely abandon Tiny during the winter months, but if you're looking for a cozy little getaway in the snow, give it a try.

Tiny: one of the most important birding spots in Canada

The Tiny Marsh Provincial Wildlife Area might be just 1 of 1200 important birding areas in Canada, but it packs some serious ornithological punch. Squeezed into just over 3 square miles of marshland and upland forest lies a network of hiking trails that get birdwatchers close to over 250 species of avifauna. It's, of course, to long a list to name in full but highlights including the 11 different duck species, black terns and the ospreys which nest here. All are best seen from the marsh viewing ground, the wooden boardwalks, or the 2 observation towers.
