Ten star stay! Beautiful marina - wonderful staff - nice amenities. We enjoyed dinner at Mallards, as well as enjoying the Farmers Market, and dinner at Bizzottos. Charming downtown a 10 minute walk away. Can’t wait to come back!!

Marina Response:

WOW! Thank you. I'm glad you were able to enjoy our town and hopefully dodged the rain. Look forward to your return visit. We are offering a 20% discount on dockage as part of our October in Onancock promotion. Til next time. Best, Kellie

Our stay at Onancock Wharf was wonderful. The docks, facilities and closeness to the little village of Onancock is just perfect for cruisers exploring the myriad harbors of the Chesapeake Bay. We have been coming to Onancock for over twenty years and the impressive rehabilitation of the waterfront is no less than spectacular. The Harbor House is clean, well stocked and available 24/7. Its amenities include private bathrooms, complimentary laundry, a loaner car and golf carts to rent. So fun, so accommodating.

Marina Response:

Thank you for your visit. We are very happy that you enjoyed your stay. Here's to another 20 years!! Safe travels, Kellie

Onancock Wharf and Marina gets the big 5 stars - dockmaster and staff were super professional/helpful and the marina, while small, is easy to navigate and replete with numerous amenities to include the use of golf carts and a Ford Explorer (formerly a police vehicle - quite clean and reliable). We will be back! Ken and Debbie Campbell

Our yacht club has been staying at Onancock Wharf the weekend before Labor Day for years. Always friendly and helpful staff. Mallards next door was great as always and took care of our large group. Be back again next year!

Marina Response:

Thank you for your visit! You certainly had a fun group. We are very glad you had a great time. See you next time. Best, Kellie

Very impressed with our stay at Onancock Wharf and Marina. Jai (dockhand) was very capable and Kerrie (Harbormaster) was very efficient and both very friendly. She even helped us, after hours, with the clothes dryer! BTW- using the laundry is free. The heads are very clean and have good a.c. The docks are in excellent shape and easily accommodated our 48' Selene trawler. Great place to re-provision since we were able to borrow the courtesy car and drive out of town to the Food Lion. Good bakery in town and enjoyed the "fried green tomatoes" at Mallards (delicious " Orange Crush" cocktail). Interesting winding trip up the creek to Onancock and the marina. Lovely town.

Marina Response:

We're glad you enjoyed your stay - hope to see you and a few friends again! Safe travels. Best, Kellie

Onancock is a favorite place for us to cruise to. Marina is a great base; restrooms and showers are spotless, and dock hands are good.

We had a nice stay at the marina. It is within walking distance to shops and restaurants in this small town. The Marina has everything you need, washer/dryer, fuel, water, power, pompous, helpful staff, a loaner car, and is located in a nice quiet harbor.

Marina Response:

Thank you for the kind words. Hopefully, we weren't pompous but indeed helpful and yes we do have complimentary Pump out! lol. Safe travels. Kellie

Excellent small marina, only 10 slips. Very peaceful, floating docks, full services, clean secure bathrooms, free washer/dryer, Mallards restaurant next door, small park for pets, one of the best! Onancock is a stunning small town with beautiful homes and very little traffic. Just a short walk into town for the bakery, Irish Pub, Foggy Place coffee shop. Kellie is the harbormaster and she runs a GREAT marina.

Marina Response:

Thank you for visit us and we are very happy you enjoyed your stay. Just for the record we have 12 floating docks and 2 fixed docks, but who's counting. lol. Travel safe until we see you again.

5 stars is not enough. Staff were extremely friendly and helpful. There's a nice restaurant very close by and several more within walking distance. Facilities were excellent and we rented a golf cart to tour around the town despite its walkabilty -- did it for fun and the kids had a blast. Great marina in a great little town.
