Always great service

Love the place, the management, all employees. The boater is handled professionally, and these folks know their business, to include docks, tides and water predictions. Facilities are a museum, but they accommodate boater (all must bring members) very nicely.

One of the best spots for a visit to the museum and shops. Be aware that the summer has frequent weddings at the museum and dockage fills up quickly.

CBMM is the best place to dock at St. Michaels! They graciously accommodated our club "Club cruise" visit requests. Docking was super easy thanks to the expert and knowledgeable help of the dockmaster. The facilities are always very clean and well stocked! The new Welcome Center & expanded Gift Shop are great and there are several new exhibits; all are quite interesting.
