Deciding where to dock, rent, or service your boat in the Fenelon Falls area means weighing a few meaningful differences. Two marinas sit directly on Coldstream Road in Rosedale — close to where Balsam Lake connects to the Trent-Severn Waterway — while a third operates as a powersports and marine dealership on County Road 8. Each has a different emphasis, and the right fit depends on what you actually need.

Marina Profiles

Rosedale Marina

Rosedale Marina

Operating on Balsam Lake since 1997, Rosedale Marina is open seven days a week during the season, with a longer low season running through May, June, and September to Thanksgiving, and peak operations from July 1 through Labour Day. It is closed during winter.

This marina covers most of what a visiting or seasonal boater needs in one place: seasonal and transient wet slips, a gas dock, pump-out, and one of the more extensive rental fleets in the area. Rentals run from basic fishing boats to larger pontoons, with pricing as follows:

  • 14′ Smokercraft fishing boat: $100 half-day / $175 day / $875 week

Beyond rentals, the marina offers boat maintenance and repair, fiberglass restoration, custom canvas and upholstery fabrication, boat detailing, and winterization. Winter storage is available in multiple formats: indoor heated, indoor, covered, and shrinkwrap. Boater amenities on site include showers, laundry, and a store. Service brands include Yamaha, Mercury, and Evinrude, with rental boats from Smokercraft, Legend, G3, Avalon, Crestliner, Princecraft, and Bennington.

Fenelon Falls Marina Inc

Fenelon Falls Marina Inc

Fenelon Falls Marina Inc, located on County Road 8, operates more as a marine and powersports dealership than a traditional waterfront marina.

The marina does offer rentals, available from June 27 through Labour Day, with a focused fleet of pontoons, a deck boat, and fishing boats:

  • 18′ Starcraft LX Pontoon (Yamaha 50hp): $275 half-day / $400 day / $700 weekend / $2,400 week
  • 20′ Starcraft Pontoon (Yamaha 60hp): $295 half-day / $425 day / $750 weekend / $2,575 week
  • 17′ Starcraft SVX 171 Deckboat (Yamaha 90hp): $275 half-day / $450 day / $800 weekend / $2,700 week
  • 14′ Aluminum Fishing Boat (Yamaha 9.9hp): $75 half-day / $125 day / $195 weekend / $600 week
  • 14′ Aluminum Fishing Boat with steering wheel (Yamaha 20hp): $100 half-day / $165 day / $275 weekend / $975 week
  • 16′ Aluminum Fishing Boat with steering wheel (Yamaha 25hp): $130 half-day / $185 day / $345 weekend / $1,200 week

Mechanical service and repair is available for all makes and models, and the marina handles winterization. It does not advertise a gas dock, slip rentals, or on-site dockage.

What to Consider When Choosing a Marina

If you’re arriving by boat and need to stay for a few days or the season, fuel availability and slip access are the top priorities — both waterfront marinas here offer gas docks and dockage, so the choice between them may come down to slip availability, storage format, and the specific services you need year-round.

Renters without a boat of their own should look at fleet variety and rental windows. A wider selection of fishing boats and pontoons gives more flexibility for group size and lake conditions. Also check whether weekend pricing is offered separately from a full-day rate — some marinas price weekends as a defined two-day block, which can affect how you plan a trip.

For boaters who need mechanical work or are considering buying a new boat, a dealership relationship with a specific engine brand may matter. Factory-authorized service can simplify warranty claims and parts sourcing. If you own a boat powered by an engine brand a marina doesn’t specialize in, asking about service capacity for your make and model is worth doing before committing.

Winter storage format — heated indoor versus covered outdoor versus shrinkwrap — affects long-term costs and how your boat comes through a Kawartha winter. If winterization and spring launch are part of your annual routine, confirming those services are offered at the same location can save a lot of coordination.

Renters looking for the widest selection of boat types, on-water fuel, and basic amenities will find Rosedale Marina the most self-contained option. Boaters seeking premium vessel sales, a waterway-connected slip, and emergency on-water support may prefer Pride of Balsam Lake Marina. Those needing mechanical service or looking to buy new — without requiring a gas dock or slip — will find Fenelon Falls Marina Inc a practical fit for dealer-side needs.
