This marina offers a great setup for transient boaters with 2 yrs-old well-maintained floating docks. Slips are wide with generous spacing between fingers, making docking easy even for larger vessels. Power (30/50 amp) and water are available at each slip. Average water depth is around 6 feet, though it can vary slightly. Be aware that there is significant weed growth around the slips during July and August.
Fuel and pump-out services are available, and the staff are attentive—guiding you to your slip.
If your vessel's air draft allows it, you can enjoy a scenic trip through the nearby Lachine Canal, which features five locks and offers a unique perspective on Montreal's historic industrial corridor.
Overall, it's a practical and friendly stop for boaters, with a few seasonal considerations.
There's a clean restroom and laundry area onsite (washer and dryer operated with coins), but no restaurant. Marina runs from May 15 to October 6, 2025. There's a boat ramp onsite, and winter storage for local boat owners is available.
While there is no WiFi and pedestrian access beyond the marina is somewhat limited, the location borders a beautiful park—home to the renowned Osheaga music festival—and biking in the area may be an enjoyable option to explore the surroundings.

Nice floating docks and clean restrooms. Washer and dryer available with coins. Fuel and pump out available. They have two entrances with the fuel dock at the east entrance. Staff guides you to your slip. Slips are wide and have power (30/50 amp)and water. Some weeds this time of year around the slips. Kind of stuck on the tip of the island here, thus the 4/5 rating. They offered to have staff take us to the casino for dinner if did not want to go into the amusement park. The road to the other end of the island is motorized vehicles only (no walking though did not ask about a bike). The park closed at 9:30 pm so noise level is not an issue. No fireworks the night we were there.

This Marina is open for transients. Most of the docs are brand-new with good electrical 30/50 amp, and water (150 ppm TDS). No WiFi, but bathrooms and laundry are clean. No restaurant, but marina is adjacent to a roller coaster park that has fireworks every Saturday night. Location is very convenient to St Lambert lock in Montreal. Fuel and pump out available. Very helpful owner and staff.
