Krates Marina, Family-Friendly Fun on Lake Simcoe

Krates Marina is located in Cook's Bay, which is on the scenic southern shore of Lake Simcoe, just a 40 minute drive from Toronto. Lake Simcoe lies between Lake Huron’s Georgian Bay and Lake Ontario.  Lake Simcoe is a great place to stop on the Trent-Severn Waterway. Fed by numerous small streams and joined by the Trent Canal, the lake is 278 square miles and drains northward toward the Severn River, also parts of the canal system and into the southeastern end of Georgian Bay. The marina itself offers boaters and sailors everything they could want in a Summer getaway. Walk along the pristine waterfront and play in the beach areas, or lounge poolside near either of the two heated pools. There's also a hot tub and spa, beautiful gardens, beach volleyball courts and well-appointed washrooms and showers - all on-site and all available to guests. Guests looking to explore the nearby area, won't be disappointed. Keswick is a charming,  historical town where travelers will find groceries, beer, retailers, restaurants and movie theaters. Last, but not least, Krates Marina has two launches for those traveling from Toronto or other nearby areas. There is also a full service gas dock and Ship's Store for those who need to fuel up and stock provisions and equipment. Read More
