Illustrated map of a resort showing cabin and cottage locations as well as services and other accommodations for use by guests and staff
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 McCreary's Beach Resort.
Situated on Mississippi Lake; minutes from the historic Town of Perth, and only 45 minutes from downtown Ottawa. The perfect lakeside city escape.
With access to the Lake from the resort, McCreary’s Beach is a hub for those looking for the Lake life in Ontario.
My approach for these projects was 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 cottage numbers and road names labeled directly on the illustration. Guests can find their specific rental without asking at the office. Staff can direct people with precision. It is a small detail that makes a real difference in how a property runs.
If you manage a resort, a golf course, 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.
