Decor Boutique
Rooted in Beaverton
A Shop That Belongs to This Town
WHIMSY has been a local business in Beaverton for over 10 years — a small town with a big heart, nestled along the eastern shores of Lake Simcoe. We opened our doors because we believe this community deserves a place to find beautiful, thoughtfully chosen pieces for your home or cottage without having to drive to the city.
From our cottagers who spend their summers on the lake, to our families who call Beaverton home year-round and to our neighbours from surrounding areas who make the trip — WHIMSY is for all of you! We know your names, we know your homes, and we love being a part of your story.
This is a shop built on community. Every piece we carry, every season we celebrate, every conversation over the counter — it all comes back to the people right here.
What We're About
Community First, Always
Made for This Community
Everything we carry is chosen with the people of Beaverton and the surrounding Lake Simcoe area in mind — from cozy cottage finds to everyday home accents.
Proudly Local
We're rooted right here on Simcoe St. We celebrate local makers, support nearby artisans, and love being a part of the fabric of this town.
A Place to Belong
WHIMSY is more than a shop — it's a gathering spot. Whether you're a longtime local or just passing through, you're always welcome here.
Serving the Region
For Everyone Around the Lake
We're proud to be a destination shop for the wider Lake Simcoe and Durham Region community. Whether you're a year-round resident or a weekend cottager, we're just a short drive away.
