If you are looking for a small community within Middlesex County with access to the beaches of Grand Bend and all the amenities of a big city like London, grab your coffee and learn more about the great village of Ailsa Craig.
The Village of Ailsa Craig itself is located 34 km South of Grand Bend. It was founded on the Ausable River that runs through the village and into Lake Huron. The closest big cities are Strathroy (24 km South-West), London, Ontario (38 KM South-East), and Stratford (55 km to the East).
Ailsa Craig is centrally located to conveniently access a number of commuting destinations where the job market is larger. It is 22 minutes away from Strathroy, 35 minutes from London, 45 minutes from Stratford, and an hour away from Woodstock, Ontario which is located a little further East.
It is largely a rural community with small urban settlement vibes.
Incorporated in 1874, the Village of Ailsa Craig is known as the origin of two decorated racers, a Canadian Women's Hockey gold-medalist, and certainly not least of all, a history-making astronaut.
