The village of Gore's Landing was named after
Thomas Sinclair Gore,
an Irishman who settled there in 1845.

"The Landing" was a terminus for a plank road from Cobourg to Rice Lake. Travelers were accommodated in the Gabetis-Weller Tavern, and the Bennett Ferry House. (This historical building, the oldest remaining structure in Gore’s Landing was constructed in 1838 and is our 3 bedroom cottage #8).

The ferry service to Peterborough found its heyday in the steamboat era and molded such characters as Wilbert Harris,  a retired steamboat

Cap't Harris rice lake cottages marina fishing rentals holiday history
captain who operated a tourist camp and boat livery on the property now known as Plank Road Cottages & Marina. Guests pitched tents on the grounds and stayed for some great fishing and relaxation. Over the years, "Cap" Harris, aided by family, friends, and local craftspeople, built small cottages (Cottages # 1,2,3 &4) and two boat houses (cottages #5,6,& 7) along the lakeshore. The creativity and individuality of these people shows in each wall, floor and window of our cottages.  

There are many other historical sights and local attractions close by. The city of Cobourg is only 16km (10 miles) away and the surrounding area offers golf, tennis, horse racing, Casino (slots only), shopping, dining, cinemas and night-life.
