Originally a small farming community with a General Store at Doran Road and Finley Mills Road, this community supplied electricity to Barrie via a generating station along Willow creek at the turn of the 1900s until it became obsolete soon after. It is now a small satellite community of Barrie, and is a part of Springwater Township. Hunter Rusell nature trail runs through Midhurst parallel to Willow Creek and the foundations of several old mills can be found along its banks.
