Great weekend! Everyone very friendly and accommodating.
Marina Response:
Donald, Thank you for taking the time to respond to the Dockwa survey, I apologize this had happened to you. The front desk staff was doing exactly what they were told to do, it wasn't until after your call, and one other, that we were told Friday reservation could be postponed until Saturday due to the Small Craft Advisory. If there was another Small Craft Advisory on Saturday they could be cancelled for Saturdays arrival as well. We were not sure who the boaters were that had called so we could not call you back to update this new information. I do apologize but appreciate that we are now updated with this revised policy.by Lisa G. - Verified user on Oct 06, 2024
Excellent as always. The staff (Dee especially) and the owners were extremely helpful. Food was great too. Since our group has smaller boats, we were given spaces near the hotel...which ended up being far from the bathhouse, for those who do not shower on their boats. I guess that means we all need to buy bigger boats!! :).....also very convenient for the Bacon and Bourbon festival! We'll be back!

Nice little marina. Well maintained. This is our 2nd stay there. Smithfield is a nice town to visit. Beautiful old homes.

My wife and I visited the Smithfield Station on August 29, 2024 and stayed for 5 days. We only intended to stay for 2 days but LOVED it so much we extended our stay. This place is GREAT. The floating docks are first class. The on-site restaurant and bar was also great. The employees are ALL friendly, helpful, nice, knowledgable. The food and drinks were perfect. We also enjoyed the large, clean pool. The on-site bathrooms and showers were modern and clean. The approach from the James River is very well marked and we never saw a depth less than 7 feet at low tide- typical depth was 12-15 feet. We ventured into the small town of Smithfield (an easy 2 block walk) and found the town to be delightful with several restaurants and small shops. We will return again soon!!!

Marina Response:
Thank you Mike and Kathy! Ashli and I enjoyed meeting you all as well as the entire Hampton Roads Yacht Club! I look forward to my dinner at Blue with you next time I'm in the Beach!
Tight lines,

Our stay was wonderful!! Our only complaint is that there needs to be better communication between the marina and the hotel employees. No one in the hotel could tell us where to park the trailer. It was our first time here, and nothing was laid out well as far as where to put in the boat and park the trailer.

Nice marina, good dockhands, a little shallow at the side dock along the hotel's pool and cottages. Down to about 5' when we left, near low tide. The route back out to the James River is also skinny at lower tide. Windsor Castle Park across the street is a gem.

Thank you Greg, we appreciate the positive response and hope to see you back again soon!by Doug N. - Verified user on Jun 24, 2024
Brian was helpful with the reservation request process and Michael was the best dock boy/line handler ever. Very clean and the restaurant was awesome.
One suggestion; the hotel staff knows nothing about the marina and the published phone number to the marina goes to them.

Lovely marina, lovely town! Pristine facilities including pool. Can't wait to come back!
Marina Response:
Robert... we can't wait to have you back... glad you were able to take advantage of the pool as well. See you soon!!!by Richard W. - Verified user on May 15, 2024
Fabulous facilities and location. Only downside was no one to direct us where to dock or assist us. Windy day. Picked the face dock. Thankfully another boater helped us dock. For the price per foot someone should have been available to assist us. Other wise awesome.

We stayed at Smithfield Station the weekend of the Smithfield Bacon, Bourbon and Music Festival. Smithfield Station could not have been more accommodating to our request to shorten our stay to a single night because of small craft advisories the planned day of arrival. It would be hard to beat the convenience, cost and quality of the Sunday brunch at the restaurant. We definitely plan to return.
Marina Response:
Mike... you are the BOMB!!!! thank you.. sometimes we can be accommodating, just don't yell at us. LOL no seriously, thank you. We work with the information we are given at the time so clearly you called after we received the revised information so thank you for the positive review, we truly do appreciate it. We all hope to see you back soon.by Sally L. - Verified user on Nov 13, 2023

My go-to marina for a weekend when we have company on board. First class bath house and swimming pool immediately adjacent to the docks. Excellent restaurant on site. Beautiful park for walking directly across the street. Wonderful Victorian style homes to see on the short walk into town. Town has a little museum with the “oldest” smoked ham and oldest peanut known to man, a number of good restaurants and many shops to browse. Plus, the Smithfield Station owners frequently are the guys grabbing your dock lines and welcoming you to the marina. Nice touch.
