It looks like Winterberry Holly, Ilex verticillata. That's not backed up by any evidence except that's what it looks like to me and I would expect it to be fairly common in NY state. They are largish, forest understory shrubs. WW Here is a link that might be useful: Winterberry holly

If it's the same Georgian Bay I know, it's the northeast part of Lake Huron in Ontario...east of Tobermory and Manitoulin Island.

After more sleuthing, it turns out to be Lonicera involucrata (honeysuckle family) aka Twinberry or other various common names.
