Point Pleasant Marina has been part of the Parry Sound boating scene since 1965, but its modern identity was forged in 2007 when Drew and Sherry Lichtenheldt took ownership. Drew had already been working at the marina since he was 14, back in 1990 — for them, the saying goes, the marina is more than a job; it is their passion. That long personal history shows in the standard of care customers describe.
What truly sets Point Pleasant apart is its environmental conscience. It was one of the first three marinas in all of Ontario to earn the Clean Marine program’s highest platinum rating, and the team treats that as a mission rather than a plaque. They describe themselves as stewards of the bay, actively educating boaters to protect the waters they all share, and they support the Georgian Bay Biosphere Reserve’s programs for the next generation of boaters.
For boaters who want their marina to tread lightly, this is the one. Beyond the green credentials it is a well-run, full-service marina with a personal touch — the kind of place where the owners know your boat and your name. On a bay as precious as Georgian Bay, that stewardship matters, and Point Pleasant wears it proudly.
