About Five Star Fish & Cruise Charters
Five Star Fish and Cruise Charters has been running private fishing charters and sightseeing cruises out of Collingwood Harbour since 2006, just ten minutes from Blue Mountain Resort. A family-friendly, owner-operated business, it has become a go-to for anglers and sightseers wanting a personalized day on Georgian Bay.
The charters target the bay's prized cold-water species — salmon, lake trout, brown trout, and rainbow trout — with all rods, tackle, downriggers, and licensing guidance provided, so even complete beginners can step aboard and start fishing. For non-anglers, the same vessels run relaxed sunset and sightseeing cruises past the harbour's landmarks and open water. Trips typically run two to six hours for up to eight passengers, making them well suited to families, groups of friends, and corporate outings alike.
What guests consistently highlight is the personal, patient service — the captain shares local knowledge, helps kids reel in their first fish, and tailors each outing to the group aboard. Operating from the Ferry Dock in Collingwood's Harbour Lands Park, Five Star pairs prime access to Georgian Bay's fishery with the easygoing feel of a small, seasoned local operator.
