Gracious staff in a terrific location, close enough but not in the middle of the rif raf.

Super friendly staff always attentive and welcoming. We’ve never had anything but a great experience here.

Marina Response:

Hi Kyle, thanks for the review! We love having Ohana here and will gladly welcome you back anytime. Cheers, the GIM Staff

Cecelia and Team are one of the most accommodating and friendly dock office/ staff I’ve ever encountered. They excel to make sure you’re comfortable and happy, no matter what. The marina itself is clean, accessible, and a 3 minute launch, or short walk to Thames St. The harbor view is beautiful, and the Marina Pub is a very popular spot, right in the premises. Thank you again, and will see you on our next visit.

Marina Response:

Art, thanks for taking the time to leave a review! It was our pleasure having Neverland here with us. You guys are awesome and we hope to see you back next year! Cheers, Cecelia and the GIM Staff
