Easy to drive on past (I did for years), this is where food-loving locals gather to enjoy lumberjack-sized portions of classic diner food delivered to the table with business-like dispatch. The place runs like a well oiled machine and never disappoints.

Neighbourhoods

This cozy enclave is at the very end of the road, a short but scenic drive from Maple Bay. Travelling yachters might pass a night or two tied up here on the way north or south along the coast, and they add to the scene at the Genoa Bay Cafe.
