Vine Ridge Resort Illustrated Community Map
Client: Great Blue Resorts
I am the artist who made these maps. They are many years old. Although this map was made for Great Blue Resorts a quick search appears to show that Vine Ridge Resort is now independent. For more information on Vine Ridge Resort please visit VinerRidgeResort.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 Vine Ridge Resort in Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario.
Vine Ridge Resort is a premier, family-focused cottage community offering ownership and seasonal rentals, located minutes from Niagara Falls.
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 a spot illustration of a golfer indicating nearby courses available.
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.
