Good staff, loaner car but poor showers and weak wifi
Marina Response:
We usually don't have poor showers and weak WiFi. Please let us know of any issues while you're here, so we have the chance to address them. Thank you.

The marina is very well located to the center of town, less than 10 min walk. Docks and facility are fine. It would be nice if they updated the bathroom/ shower area, but its clean. Service is very good - everyone is friendly and helpful.

Upon arrival, filled up at the fuel dock, then was directed to our slip and they assisted with tie up. Wonderful facility, friendly employees, free weekend entertainment and a clean bath house.

Had a great view of the town. Service was good. The only con for us was the walk into town. But we got our steps in for the day.
Marina Response:
We have courtesy vehicles and bikes. Thank you for the review and come back and see us!

Stayed there twice recently. A clean family run marina with a great pool and within walking distance of many restaurants. Groceries and West Marine area almost too far to walk, but the marina makes a car available to drive to them.
The fairways are a little narrow, making maneuvering into an assigned slip a harder than in marinas with wider fairways.
Both times we were assigned to slip D7 - beware the large boat in the slip on the other side of the finger pier floating dock has a large stair to his boat in the middle of the finger pier that is permanently attached to the dock and blocks more than 1/2 its width. If it is easy to exit your boat from the stern half, you might want to back into this slip.
Another quirk of this marina is that the dock hands tie your boat to cleats with a "waterman's tie" which is NOT the "cleat hitch" most sources recommend. (Google the term and there are several videos showing how to tie to a cleat properly.) The dockhands will not be insulted if you retie the lines and their initial tie is safe for short periods in benign conditions. But many boats prefer more "Bristol" practices and it makes an odd first impression for more traditional boaters.
Marina Response:
I heard about the knot comment when you told him he tied it "wrong". Please be aware, we are here to give you a helping hand. You are to secure your vessel as you see fit. You are the only ones who have ever oddly graded us on knots in the 13 years of us being here. Take care, Ashley

Nice pool and bar set up. Lots Of live aboards not protected against the south wind and swell.
Marina Response:
Hi, our marina is shaped like a horseshoe so we do have a more protected side against South winds. We also, have Molly's Leg island which helps protect as well. I haven't looked into what slip you were located in, but come back and see us, and we will get you straight next time. Also, we don't have liveaboards, so you must be talking about those who frequent their vessels from far locations. Come back and see us! Have a wonderful day!!!

We cruised in on Thursday and out on Sunday.
Temps were 90°+ all 4 days but not to worry with the inviting pool and the bar only 25 steps away. Always one of our favorite go-to spots on the Chesapeake where we enjoy friendly people, great customer service, delicious eats, generous pour libations and live music!

Nice pool. Nice people. Great view from many slips.

First, great location to walk to town so this is a plus. Second, floating dock is nice too and the shower facilities are fine.
If you are going to get gas, be prepared to open hatches, engine hatch and for your crew disembark. Also be sure the dock attendant doesn’t untie your lines until you are ready.
If you like a quiet marina, this may not be a place for you.

They only provided about 18 feet of dockage for a 28 foot boat
Marina Response:
We could have addressed this while you were there had we known you felt this way. The dockhand also, said your length overall was at least 35' not the 28' you reserved for. We wish you all the best. Thank you and take care.
