About Us
Wiarton Retirement Residence is nestled within the greater community of the Town of South Bruce Peninsula, a beautiful, all-season community that caters to boomers, where over 35% of the population is aged 65 and above. The residence is located at 598 Gould Street, Wiarton, Ontario. It offers a unique and special community of independent retirement living in a stately, fully renovated century home. The core vision is to provide a comfortable residence that offers supportive senior living for today's modern senior, where people gather to share stories, laughter, and celebrations. The residence is family-owned and operated, RHRA regulated, and reflects a progressive, family-centered philosophy on senior care. It is not a long-term care home but an affordable alternative to big-box corporate assisted senior care providers.
