Very quiet this time of year. Thanks to Craig for assistance with docking . Didn't have time to explore the waterfront but will stop on way back.

We are a 47ft ketch. We draw 1.2meters. This was a very good spot to make repairs as there is an Ace Hardware with a workshop able to provide new hydraulic hoses to size. Craig was extremely helpful and fast to communicate giving us the codes to hot showers late in the evening Restaurants a couple of mins away. We had lost our steering so had no option but to just take a berth. Craig was so helpful giving us all the details of those who could help us.

This is a tricky spot to dock in high winds and current. The dock master, Craig, met us at the dock with extra hands to help us into our slip. Craig is very responsive and helpful. We were expecting high winds, but the local fishing boats who ignored the no wake zone, rocked us more than the winds. We had dinner at Souther Salt (a block away) - good food and friendly staff.

Dock master Craig was very helpful getting us doked, especially with the heavy current. Better to wait for slack tide!

Wonderful. Thank you once again.

The dock was marked and clean. No issues at all. Craig called me in advance to let me know one of the roads were closed. He greeted us when we arrived. Awesome customer service. We stayed at the Bask Hotel, the dock is right across the street. Couldn’t have been more perfect!

Dates: July 30 - 31, 2024 LOA: 48' Beam: 15' Draft: 3'4" We stayed one night on our way north. The current at this dock is very strong, even at slack current. The dock master is the only employee and is very nice and helpful. If you need assistance getting docked, make sure to call ahead with an ETA so he can be on hand. There are some sail boats anchored right across from these slips, but there was plenty of room for us to swing our 48' boat around to back into the slip. Plenty of restaurants to choose from a short walk away. Walmart is also available for grocery delivery if you need to provision.

Thank you- worked out well. I’ll be back

Craig was about the best Dockmaster we have encountered on our ICW cruising. He reached out by phone early on the day of our arrival to discuss currents and wind conditions. We decided to leave earlier than planned hoping to arrive at slack. Even with little current, docking our single screw trawler was challenging but Craig and another volunteer helped us wrestle our boat into the end slip and tie up safely. Nice docks.
