Living in Port Dover

Port Dover is a harbour town on the north shore of Lake Erie — 6,000-ish year-round residents, a summer population that multiplies that number, and a lifestyle built around the water.

Port Dover pulls three distinct groups: retirees drawn by the pace and the lake, young families priced out of Hamilton and the GTA, and a growing remote-work population that discovered the town during the pandemic.

The rental market has tightened correspondingly. Single-family homes lease quickly; well-priced apartments and cottages rarely see the second week of a listing.
