The Dockhouse Museum represents a step back into time. The Dockhouse demonstrates to visitors how vessels of all sizes were pulled out of the water for repairs in the late 1920's. The Dockhouse was rebuilt in 1990 by summer students. The original shed consisted of two rooms, one for the haul-up equipment and one, containing a table, chairs, and a stove, was a rest room for the men.Floating Dock

The Ships Mast Display is an exhibit of a ships mast and its riggings.  Local bands usually play near the exhibit during festivalsShips Mast such as Grenfell Heritage Night.
