Kempenfelt Bay is bordered with small boathouses with tiny railways and some magnificent houses. We row along the edges of Kempenfelt Bay from the Barrie Rowing Club to the hospitality centre of Georgian College where we will have lunch. The return trip gives us a view of the marinas, houses, parks, and beaches on the other side of the Bay.
