Great day,night and weather.

The venue, the museums and all the exhibits are absolutely amazing! My only criticism is the docking location on bulkhead ‘A’ Because of a rather slight physical handicap, I had severe difficulty boarding and getting off my Sailing vessel. There was at least a 2 foot gap and a severe drop in order to get on and off the vessel where I needed help to do what other people think is rather simple exercise. On my next visit, I really hope I’m assigned to a conventional slip conducive to sailboat boarding and disembarking. Never again do I wanna have to go through that for two days!

Excellent as always! Dock master Josh is always on hand to assist and we are happy to support the museum. Water at the docks would be nice though.

One of the best and certainly historic places to dock on the Chesapeake. Great attention to arrival time and departure. Easy access to St. Michaels especially the ice cream shops. Highly recommended.

This was our second out of season stay and we will be back. Great place to dock for a few nights and enjoy St. Michaels. Josh the dockmaster was very helpful, and the ground of the museum remain well kept. We will be back.

We had the most amazing time at the Maritime Museum. The docks were well maintained, Gibby and the rest of the dock staff were helpful and friendly, and the museum itself was incredible. We will return and couldn’t recommend this stop highly enough.

Great docking staff, museum, amenities, nearby Crab Claw and other restaurants in easy walking distance.

Having the docks spread out around the perimeter of the CBMM grounds creates a unique and relaxing environment. The facilities are all well kept up and the various buildings on the grounds provide ample places for groups to gather. We’ll be back again!

Gibby helped us dock on W tee, which we had requested.

by Thomas G. - Verified user on Oct 11, 2024
You need a membership to dock there but you can sign up right away online, and even with the membership fee ("Admiral Level" required) it's still cheaper than other marinas there. The dockhand was VERY helpful when we came in, and it's in walking distance to many nice stores/restaurants and the museum! Definitely a great spot when cruising the Chesapeake Bay Area.

The people were great. The slip was fine. Museum was very interesting.

Fantastic stay for our first time at the marina. The employee who jumped on the boat to help with docking was terrific. We also greatly appreciated the pump out boat that came to our slip. We plan to sail to CBMM again! Chasseur

We always love staying at the Maritime museum. The staff was great! Josh, the Dock Master, is the best! It’s fun to stay in a working museum. Always a Special treat.

The dock masters at the CBMM Marina are the best on the bay! I okwould encourage all visitors to consider signing up for one of the many levels of membership, or make a donation to CBMM.org. Please visit: https://cbmm.org/memberships/

Excellent docks! And a very good price for our stay in St Michaels. The staff were friendly and helpful and the grounds of the Museum were well kept. It is a working shipyard, which means you’ll hear some noise during the day, but you’ll get to see some pretty cool things. We got to watch as a wooden mast was reinstalled into a Shipjack right behind our sailboat

Great spot- Very accommodating and makes membership well worth the value. Quiet, and a short walk to town.

Beautiful location and nice services! We loved the peacefulness of the museum grounds at night and it was an easy walk to town and restaurants. And the museum itself is wonderful
