Goodfellow Construction Inc — custom homes & condos in Bracebridge, ON (Est. 1976, Tarion Excellent)
Goodfellow Construction has been building in Muskoka since 1976, starting with custom summer residences on Lake of Bays and growing into commercial and condominium development over the following two decades. The company has held a Tarion builder rating of “Excellent” since registering with what was then the Ontario New Home Warranty Program in 1982 — four decades of continuous Tarion standing is uncommon and speaks to how the company handles deficiency claims and build quality. Goodfellow is based at 191A Anglo St. in Bracebridge and can be reached at 705-646-1564.
Background and work type
The early years were focused on prestige cottage-country builds — summer properties on Lake of Bays where seasonal extremes, shoreline setbacks, and custom specifications demanded careful execution. By the early 1990s, Goodfellow had moved into major commercial work alongside residential projects. The shift to condominium development in the late 1990s was a deliberate step: operating as both builder and developer gave the company direct control over quality at every stage, rather than building to another developer’s spec.
That integration — design input, construction, and development oversight under one company — is what separates Goodfellow’s condominium offering from production-focused builders. Pricing has stayed reasonable because the developer margin doesn’t belong to a separate party.
Service area
Goodfellow builds in Bracebridge and across Muskoka, including the Lake of Bays corridor, Huntsville, and Gravenhurst. The company’s website at goodfellowcondos.com shows current and past projects.
