The marina and staff are fantastic. The restaurants are co-located on premises and are very good. The Dockmaster does a truly outstanding job of fitting everyone in. It is a smaller marina, but definitely worth stopping at especially if you are waiting for the proper tide for transiting the C&D canal eastward.

It was very busy when I arrived but they were well staffed and organized. They helped me into my slip and all facilities were nice and clean.

Always a great stay at the Inn! The dock guys are outstanding! A boat came in and would have nailed our boat, but thanks to Ryan, Cade and Clem their swift reactions and knowledge, they saved our boat. They are the most professional and knowledgeable dock staff anywhere. The entire staff always does an excellent job and the food is always amazing!

Very nice marina. The dock attendant,Ryan, was super. The restaurant was just right for two adults with a 9yo grandchild in tow. We were there midweek, so it was pretty quiet. I understand weekends can be a bit of a zoo. We were able to get fuel (diesel) directly across the canal. It was brutally hot and humid; a pool would give it 5 stars which, to be fair, is a lot to ask.

I had not been to the marina for over a decade, and it was a wonderful experience. The restaurant folks were great. The food also was very good. But Clement, the dockmaster was outstanding. We knew we had a storm coming in and I have never experienced my boat being tied up so expertly that it did not move. It stuck to the floating docks like glue. Very impressive. I'd highly recommend this marina to anyone.

Cade was amazing! He gets us in every time and makes sure to check up on us while flying around the marina to ensure all boats come and go without issue. Thank you!

Clement, the dock master, was spectacular. Came in with some wind and currents and the dock hands handle it like champs. Go to plug in and didn’t have the correct splitter - they swapped the circuit out to a single 50. Awesome service. Thank you!!

Deckhands very professional and helpful. But, the slip they put me in was 8” away from a large boat next to me. Way too close

Ryan was awesome at dock. Food and beverage were perfect. Clean and close restroom and showers. Excellent experience. But bring bug spray

Excellent place to stay along the C&D canal. Dockmaster was great in helping get the boat docked and providing all of the marina details. Tiki bar and the two restaurants on-site made having meals and drinks easy. The air-conditioned bathrooms were great. The recent dredging (2024) has made it easy for us to directly access the marina from the canal.
