Ramara Specialty for Sale - Northern GGH
Goffatt Island offers a rare opportunity to acquire a fully serviced private island estate and operating hospitality property on Lake Simcoe. Encompassing approximately 11.47 acres across an 11.11-acre island and a dedicated mainland access parcel, the property combines significant waterfront land holdings with infrastructure that supports hospitality, retreat, recreational, and long-term investment uses. Ownership has invested more than $11 million since 2017 in the redevelopment of the property, including accommodation buildings, utility systems, shoreline improvements, docks, landscaping, and site servicing.
The property currently operates as a boutique island resort and special-events venue featuring nine self-contained accommodation suites with a total of 19 bedrooms, a conference and dining facility, general store space, staff accommodations, multiple beach areas, marina infrastructure, and recreational amenities. Extensive electrical, water treatment, and septic infrastructure support the island's operations, creating a level of servicing uncommon among private island assets.
Located at the northeast end of Lake Simcoe, the property is approximately five kilometres from Orillia and near Casino Rama, marinas, provincial parklands, and established recreational destinations. The dedicated mainland parcel at 4739 Cedar Point Lane provides private parking, utility connections, and direct boat access, enhancing the practicality and accessibility of the island. The property's legal non-conforming resort use, substantial shoreline frontage, established infrastructure, and proximity to major Ontario population centres support a variety of ownership strategies, including hospitality operations, retreat uses, family compound ownership, and long-term landholding investment.
