Great overnight stay. Dockmaster Allie is friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. Enjoyed Poke bowl at Fredericks on the island per her recommendation. They also had a bike for us to borrow. Easy in and out whether from ICW or ocean. We'll be back for sure.

Dockmaster was great helping us with lines and very friendly. But all the facilities are being renovated at the moment. So the toilets and showers are portajohns in the parking lot. And the restaurant is closed. Not what we expected for our most expensive marina yet on the ICW.

Great Marina. The facilities are under renovation but the staff is wonderful. St Simon's Island is as nice as can be.

Always a simple and pleasant overnight stop. Almost always hit it going down or up the ditch. Or tucking in after or before an ocean run. Has a simple, usually-large along side tie up. Lots of nice restaraunts nearby. Good uber service.

We loved our phone call checking on us about an hour out. We were running late. Arrived as the sun settled and were ably assisted by the dock master. She was most helpful.
Thanks to all at Golden Isles, SV Fin.

To Marina and slip and docks were great. Coffee shop fabulous. It would’ve been nice to know that the restaurant is closed down and is under construction.

Wonderful as always.
We were surprised that Coastal Kitchen is closed. Apparently they suffered water damage and are rebuilding.

Wow! The on duty Dockmaster, Allie, is amazing! She greeted us upon arriving for our slip assignment and handled multiple tasks while helping us fuel and pump out. She runs circles around other staff at comparable marinas and surely is a huge asset to your operation. Thank you Allie for the outstanding service and we wish you all the best! Captain's John & Beth "Morning Starr"

All of us were very impressed with Allie , the Dockmaster . She was in at 7am the day we left and when we came in the night before , we saw her after 7pm . Everytime we saw her she was working . One of my crew ,.who was a CFO before he retired said “ no matter what the job , this is the person you want to hire to get a job done well . “. She is very conscientious. You have an excellent Ambassador for your business . She is the type of person , that will expand your business .

Bathrooms and showers closed. They had portable bathrooms. No laundry. Restaurant closed. (Coastal kitchen). Things happen I understand but they didn’t advertise that they didn’t have these things and did not give a price break of any kind. We had a package delivered by FedEx from Lululemon that the front desk said was not delivered and never found. Brandon working the docks was fantastic. Very helpful and knowledgeable.

One word...thankful! We had an unexpected engine malfunction that required us to be towed back into Brunswick. As the marina I had just departed that morning already filled my slip, I was thankful for Morningstar to take us in on short notice. Not only that, the deck staff were super nice, professional and eager to assist. The marina even offered to allow us to stay a week on their transient dock knowing this is peak season — some big expensive boats coming in and out of there and we're filling a portion that could have easily gone to another. Very thankful for the team at Morningstar in Brunswick.
