About Marina

At Kawagama Lake Marina, we’re proud to carry forward the legacy of Old Mill Marina while ushering in a new era of service and experience. Though the name has changed, our commitment to the Dorset community and our customers remains exactly the same. As part of the Maple Leaf Marinas family, we bring local dedication backed by regional support and expertise.

With friendly, knowledgeable staff on-site year-round and facilities designed for comfort, safety, and convenience, Kawagama Lake Marina is more than a stop—it’s part of your cottage experience.
