2026 Ojibway Dock Update
Hope all enjoyed a Happy Canada Day! And soon, the 4th of July!!
We are pleased to share that dock design drawings have been finalized and the permit application has been submitted to the Township for the fixed dock replacement. OHPS held a preconstruction meeting with Demasdons in late June to review logistics and discuss some final details. Demasdons is on track to mobilize and start the fixed dock replacement in Fall 2026 following the shut-down of the Ojibway Club for the 2026 season. Stay tuned for more updates throughout the summer!
The dock between the fire pump hut and gift shop will be raised approximately 14 inches to match the elevation of the fixed docks at either end. Further expansion into the bay will provide more space for visitors, islanders, campers, regatta racers and social eventers! The original wharf design which has welcomed visitors since 1906 will be kept.
Thank you to the many donors who have generously given! Your support will ensure that the historical Ojibway front dock, central to our treasured summers in Pointe au Baril, will continue to be the number one gathering place for ALL!
Look forward to seeing you all on the Ojibway dock this summer!!
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Convivial and elegant gathering on the Ojibway Dock in 1910. Some things never change!
“ Part promenade, part loading platform, part landing point for stately steamers, the wharf was the focal point of hotel life at the Ojibway. ”
