    Nice wide floating docks, power pedestals functional. 50% of laundry units out of service. A bit of a hike to the marina office. Washrooms clean and functional. Pretty well stocked marine store next to office. Slips wide and fairly easy docking. We didn't ask for docking help but didn't need it. Town offers several restaurants, grocery, pharmacies, and post office within easy walk. Street market on Friday mornings! Hike to an overlook on the east side of the bay.

    A nice marina in a nice town. Docks were in good repair. Thirty amp electric worked as expected. Staff was responsive and answered radio and telephone calls. A well-positioned breakwall protected the marina in a strong northerly blow. Individual shower suites included a toilet and had plenty of hooks to hang towels and clothes. Town is an easy walk. There are restaurants nearby, but didn't try them. I had plenty of food on the boat.

    To pass a weather-in day, I rode my bike 2.2 miles to the historic lighthouse on the west side of the bay in the morning. During the afternoon, I rode to an overlook on the east side of the bay. From there, it's a nice view of the southern end of the bay and town. A short walk from the marina is a boardwalk with bridges that crisscrosses a restored wetlands.

    Stayed 1 night. Marina in good repair, nice floating docks. Staff quickly to the slip to catch my lines. Marina store was VERY well stocked! Restaurants, LCBO, grocery all an easy walk. Laundry and restrooms available on site but not used. A busy marina, staff all very friendly.

    Gore Bay Marina, 15 August 2022. Busy and efficient marina within walking distance of Pavilion and other venues in the town. Marina store is well stocked with items for the boat which is adjacent to the fuel dock. Gore Bay is scenic and with the seawall the marina is protected. Restrooms and showers are in a building separate from the marina.
