Lantern Bay Resort Illustrated Community Map
Client: Great Blue Resorts
I am the artist who made these maps. They are many years old. For the latest and most accurate information on any of these resorts please visit GreatBlueResorts.com
Great Blue Resorts was one of my primary clients for a number of years. I created illustrated maps for many of the properties they owned or represented across Ontario. The map shown here is for Lantern Bay Resort in Kilworthy, Ontario.
Lantern Bay Resort offers easy access to the world-famous Trent Severn Waterway and features a dedicated marina. From swimming and kayaking in the summer or experiencing the changing of the leaves while roasting s’mores by the campfire in the fall, Lantern Bay Resort is a Muskoka destination for everyone to enjoy.
My approach for these projects was relatively consistent. Provide a clear overview of the property and use graphical icons to mark facilities guests actually need. Lodging, dining, recreation, parking. Everything in one place, easy to find at a glance.
This particular map features color coded zones that delineate different subsections of the property. Guests can immediately see how the resort is organized and which area their rental belongs to. Cottage numbers are labeled directly on the map, so visitors can find their specific unit without stopping at the office first.
If you manage a resort or a mixed use property and need a clear, useful illustrated map, contact me. I have done this work before and I can do it for you.
