"We want to offer a cheaper, more family-oriented alternative. You could take your nine-year-old with you and they'd have the ability to hit the ball and not have a real frustrating day," Hiebert said.
His plan to create a 137-lot cottage subdivision with 48 condominiums and 43 seasonal campground lots has already received municipal approval and Hiebert is also planning to create a four-acre, man-made lake for swimming.
"It becomes a $30-million-plus project when it's all said and done and developed," he said.
The shovel won't go into the ground on the subdivision, however, until the province completes a "functional design study" on twinning Highway 59 around Grand Beach, Manitoba's most popular beach destination.
