(VIENNA, Va.) – Cobble Beach – Georgian Bay’s extraordinary waterfront golf resort community two hours northwest of Toronto – has selected Buffalo Communications (Buffalo) to direct public relations for its residential development, Doug Carrick-designed golf course, non-golf amenities and boutique accommodations.
Buffalo will design and implement a communications program raising overall awareness of Cobble Beach and its numerous storylines. Placement of feature stories and editorial content in Ontario and secondary feeder markets will help generate qualified real estate leads, golf-package rounds and overall brand equity.
“From the moment we broke ground less than a decade ago, we’ve believed this is a special community in a stunning location just outside the city of Owen Sound,” says Rob McLeese, President of Cobble Beach. “When people enter the property for the first time and gaze over the bay, they quickly realize Cobble Beach is a lifestyle choice, not just an address for a first or second home.”
Cobble Beach recently introduced the Blue Bay Villas and The Grove by Reid’s Heritage Homes, true lock-and-leave, attached residences. Walkout water views, full basements, and turnkey landscaping and maintenance are a few highlights of easy living. Those seeking custom, detached product for year-round or seasonal ownership have myriad design and location options from three best-in-class builders, or they can commission their own.
In addition to home sites, Buffalo will promote the community’s centerpiece, the links-style golf course featuring views of the bay from all 18 holes. Carrick and construction manager John Anderson created contoured fairways akin to the great seaside courses of Scotland and Ireland. Subtle, strategic bunkers dot the 7,134-yard layout while pure-rolling fescue greens demand accurate approach shots to the proper quadrant.
“The McLeese family has made the Cobble Beach dream a reality, and Buffalo Communications is honored to be a part of its growth arc,” says Rich Katz, Managing Director of Buffalo. “Cobble Beach epitomizes the resort lifestyle with its world-class golf course, tennis courts, cross country skiing trails, casual and fine dining, fitness center, spa and more.”
