Found just past north creek resort - it's a quick place to nip out to if you need some staples - they also have an LCBO - saves time if you don't want to go all the way into Collingwood

Collingwood town centre has lots of shops, galleries, cafes, fast food options and groceries, gas, Walmart, Canadian Tire, Shopper’s Drug Mart etc. There are also waterfront walks too.
I like to walk up the old high street for the funky cafes, boutiques and art galleries.
