If you’ve ever spent a summer afternoon at a cottage on the water, you know the struggle: the lake is calling, but the bottom is a bit too “mucky,” or the water is just deep enough that treading water becomes a workout instead of a relaxation session.

Enter The Dock Ledge, a game-changing, Ontario-made innovation designed to transform how we experience life at the dock.

What is The Dock Ledge?

The Dock Ledge is an adjustable, in-water aluminum platform that attaches directly to your existing wooden dock. It creates a shallow, stable area in the water—perfect for those who want to stay cool without fully submerging or committing to a swim.

Why Cottage Owners Love It:

The Ultimate Chill Spot: Create a submerged lounge area where you can sit, relax, and enjoy a cold beverage while staying waist-deep in the refreshing lake water.
Perfect for Kids & Beginners: It provides a confidence-boosting “stage” for kids learning to swim or a stable platform for launching kayaks, paddleboards, and canoes.
Easy Setup & Storage: Proudly manufactured in Gravenhurst and Etobicoke, the ledge features an effortless initial setup (10-15 minutes) and folds up easily for winter storage.
No More Muck: If the lake bed under your dock is rocky or weedy, The Dock Ledge allows you to bypass the bottom entirely, giving you a clean, solid place to stand.

A Local Success Story

“Every Dock Ledge is manufactured locally in Ontario, ensuring superior quality control and supporting Canadian craftsmanship,” says Joe Jarvis, inventor of The Dock Ledge. With a 30-Day Happiness Guarantee and a warranty that doesn’t even start until the Victoria Day long weekend (for off-season purchases), they are making it easy for lakeside residents to invest in their summer memories early.
