Our Story

A legacy on Cayuga Lake

The early days of the marina Early 1950s
Early 1950s

A caretaker's vision

Leon 'Bo' Ford, head caretaker at Taughannock Falls State Park, spent his spare time repairing boats. Looking across Cayuga Lake at the swampy land south of Myers Point, he envisioned a thriving marina.

1954

Breaking ground

Bo and his wife, Louise C. Ford, purchased the land and began construction of the marina they had long dreamed of building together.

The marina opens

Bo tragically passed away before the marina was completed, but Louise carried his dream forward, officially opening the marina in 1955.

1955 – 2015

Six decades of the Ford family

Louise ran the marina for the next six decades, shaping it into a beloved destination for boaters and Cayuga Lake enthusiasts.

A new generation

Louise passed the reins to their son, Barry Ford. In all, the Ford family proudly operated the marina for nearly 66 years.

A once-in-a-generation opportunity

Barry entrusted the marina to new owners Paul Barber and Greg Mezey — Cornell friends and business partners since 2012 — who established Marina One Management Inc. to build on the Ford legacy.
