My experience at Lyman-Morse was nothing short of spectacular. The entire team of dockside staff went above and beyond to accommodate me, look out for me, and make my stay wonderful. This team embodies the reason sailing on the Coast of Maine is so special.

Professional and friendly staff. Great floating docks with reliable shore power. Nice location.

We love this facility. From what we can tell mostly women ranđŞđ, clean, safe and convenient to downtown. The warf is lovely and welcomiâď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸âď¸

New facility is set up nicely. Staff was professional and acomodating. Camden is a must see Windjamming jewel.

Fantastic marina. Great facilities and amazing dock service.
by jdsjr on Aug 27, 2022
Top notch facility and friendly, professional staff.
by kshearer on Aug 22, 2022
The staff at Lyman Morse in Camden are great and the facilities are first class. Unfortunately, unless youâre in the inner harbor, the roll is terribly uncomfortable. And $7 per foot for a dock space is ridiculous.
by rocinante on Aug 22, 2022
Lyman-Morse is a wonderful marina! We stayed on a ball for three nights. The facilities (bathrooms, showers, laundry) are some of the nicest I've seen in a marina. They have a large dinghy dock, so we never had trouble tying up our dinghy to go into town.
by mvlatitude on Aug 20, 2022
New facility is nice - we visit annually
by svspring on Aug 19, 2022
The courtesy and friendliness of staff at this marina is very special. Camden is a great place to visit, only enhanced by this wonderful marina. You wonât be disappointed!
Came back for another stay and Cynthia and her crew were absolutely fabulous, nothing was a bother and the facilities leave no room for improvement.
Another wonderful stay, all because of extremely friendly and professional staff.
by magic70brooklin on Aug 16, 2022
All really good no problems at all nice restaurants on the dock excellent.
by debpett54 on Aug 15, 2022
Very nice facilities and very nice staff in the dock house and on the docks.
by dclee0607 on Aug 14, 2022
Beautiful harbor, close proximity to shops, new first-rate facilities, and helpful, friendly staff. Only (minor) gripe: using their machines to do laundry is expensive and I wish theyâd at least make it easier by switching to the ShinePay app.
by stevevegmf on Aug 14, 2022
Good location nice facilities.
by gr8sail on Aug 13, 2022
Excellent! Terrific Staff. Great launch service. Loved Camden!
by genemitchell13 on Aug 10, 2022
Five Stars every year and it keeps getting better. The renovations look great and the restaurants are excellent. Best thing though are the people that work there.
by tlund on Aug 09, 2022
LM staff are very good, we mechanical problems coming in and they responded with a protection launch.
Facilities will be great once they are open but look great. The outer harbor moorings are a little rolly due to ocean exposure.
Boat is always sideways to the ocean swell.
Suggest inner moorings
Overall a good stay beautiful harbor
We will be back

by resolute46960 on Jul 31, 2022
Camden is great, and L-M is a pleasure to work with.
by lowluns on Jul 29, 2022
Great! Love this Marina. Facilities, staff and location to town make it a good stay, anytime.
by cbrensin on Jul 28, 2022
L-M rocks. The new facilities are stellar. Love the rooftop bar, restaurant and distillery. And the bathrooms and laundry are clean and very nice. And Camden is such a wonderful place. Looking forward to the next visit.â
by bshapsail39 on Jul 27, 2022
Great service, friendly people from the launch staff to your dock staff. A special thank you to Tasha for helping to locate a part. Good luck on the moving.
by happymama on Jul 25, 2022
Beautiful facility being built in an idyllic harbor. Very friendly staff- weâd definitely return!
by chrisj on Jul 21, 2022
Wonderful location, very courteous staff. Charlie, Nancy, Celia, and all the others offer a warm welcome. Beautiful new building with laundry and modern shower facilities. However⌠if you plan on friends visiting, parking (even WAY out back in a dirt lot) is a whopping $25 per DAY! After staying here for most of July we took a friend cruising for four days and got that $100 extra fee as a âthank youâ.
by robburt on Jul 16, 2022
Great service. Thank you!
by aquilapete on Jul 13, 2022
The new facilities are wonderful. The dock master, Nancy, and the rest of the crew were very helpful and welcoming for our visit.
by vernonb on Jul 13, 2022
The amenities at this marina are head and shoulders above anything previously encountered on the East Coast. Sets a new standard for marinas which hopefully will be followed by others. Bathrooms and showers at a level one would expect at a four or five star hotel.
by osheabuild on Jul 11, 2022
Incredibly accommodating with friendly and knowledgeable staff. Their new facility is gorgeous and Camden is a beautiful town with lots to do.
by skogie on Jul 09, 2022
So far the best marina we were in. Super friendly staff, well informed, and very helpful. The marina has some remodel going on. But the bathroom and the facilities are state of the art. In center of Camden. Easy access to town and well protected . We stayed on floating docs, very convenient and good for sleeping ;definitely on the list to revisit
by metaphor on Jul 01, 2022
Staff is wonderful, as always. New buildings are almost complete - new restrooms are open and luxurious, with new washers and driers.
Restaurants will be open within weeks.
by justjudithmj on Jun 29, 2022
Great stay at LM, staff friendly and new facilities will be excellent.
by abg5088 on Feb 17, 2022
Wonderful service, the views cannot be beat. Right in the heart of Camden!
by libby on Sep 22, 2021
Excellent, helpful staff. Perfect location for visiting Camden. They have temporary facilities because of a fire, so I canât rate the amenities. I will be back!
by goulettet on Sep 20, 2021
Very accommodating, friendly staff! Thank you!
by svcara on Sep 10, 2021
Fast response to reservation request and great communication throughout our stay. Launch service and courtesy car are included with your mooring ball fee. I will stay with them anytime I am in Camden.
by cprice on Sep 05, 2021
We stayed at Lyman-Morse 3 nights on a recent trip to Maine. (two nights on our first leg, and one night on our return). Charlie and the whole crew were so responsive and helpful and we had three comfortable nights in beautiful Camden. Despite the construction, they had everything we needed. It will be even better when the new facilities are ready. Thank you Lyman-Morse!!!
by mittelman on Sep 05, 2021
Friendly, helpful staff. Solid mooring tackle. Wonderful location.
by adulik on Aug 29, 2021
Always a pleasure. Great staff in a lovely location
by wwatts2020 on Aug 28, 2021
Staff and crew were excellent as always. Facility is under construction so not up to their normal standards.
by rdomaleski on Aug 25, 2021
Good strong mooring painters, nice dingy dock, harbor is a bit rolly however
by wmewing3 on Aug 23, 2021
Courteous, convenient, professional. All was great, even under construction!
by rworley101 on Aug 20, 2021
Great stay in a wonderful town, temp bath/showers are fine (nice actually), very helpful staff, diesel mechanic fixed our engine problem!
by ardens2 on Aug 17, 2021
Camden is a cute little town. Lyman Morse is a nice stop over even though they are running with portable facilities until their renovations are complete. Nice to have the launch service to get you into the marina or town. Showers in the portable facilities are clean and adequate. Will look forward to returning next year.
by jdisandro on Aug 16, 2021
Excellent service and stay.
by bradsusm on Aug 14, 2021
The staff was friendly and professional, and very helpful.
The Marina is in walking distance to the downtown and waterfalls.
by mikethedrummer on Aug 10, 2021
Great staff, what more could you ask for?
by berlingame on Jul 29, 2021
Convenient, friendly, in beautiful Camden Harbor. Hope to be back.
by wolfbauch on Jul 26, 2021
Very friendly staff - marina facilities are currently rebuilt - but prime dock space, friendly staff and temporary bathroom/shower facilities worked well - always a highlight on our annual summer cruise.
by webbstein on Jul 24, 2021
A great location, staff and services were first class
by jgartland on Jul 21, 2021
The nicest crew of any marina we have stayed in, even while being among the busiest! They are staffed up, flexible, and accommodating. Even when just renting a mooring. Canât wait to go back.
by mbenjamin25 on Jul 20, 2021
Friendly service. Very accommodating during renovations.
by petessake on Jul 18, 2021
Great location, easy access to town. Very nice staff, ready to assist. Would definitely stay again.
by tommitri on Jul 13, 2021
From Dockmasters Nancy Rowe and Charlie Foote, Cecilia driving the launch, Harbormasters Steve and Sarah, and a variety of deckhands, our stay was lights out. Everyone was thoughtful, friendly, and kind. Honestly canât wait to go back.
by cp on Jul 12, 2021
Thank you Nancy for directing us to our inner harbor float during late afternoon traffic. Facilities are great even with ongoing construction.
by offwind on Jul 02, 2021
Well organized dock crew brought us to our reserved dock space with amenities readily accessible. Front row seat view of Camden harbor activity.
by dfmillet on Jun 28, 2021
We had a great time. Staff was very helpful and accommodating.
by stevenshaddix on Jun 28, 2021
Our favorite marina in Maine. The same knowledge and accommodating staff are there year after year. Looking forward to the new building.
by magiordano61 on Jun 16, 2021
Great location great staff
by drgtmartin on Sep 14, 2020
Great location on the inner harbor floats. One night was a little rolly due to the direction of the swell outside the harbor, but the other 2 nights were calm. Be prepared to hear the 8 AM cannon fire from the yacht club close by if you are a late sleeper. Camden is a special town. Wonderful restaurants, shops and people.
by cheryl2hilk on Sep 03, 2020
Great marina - the staff were extremely helpful and met all of our needs. We went to the fuel dock before going to our mooring ball - got fuel, pumped out, and filled water tanks - all with help from a very friendly staff person. The use of the courtesy car was great - for provisioning and an errand to Hamilton Marine. The LM Ships Store was also helpful with a request we had. The launch service was great. Per previous reports, the recent fire caused them to not have shower facilities or laundry - but that was okay. Camden was a terrific place to explore. We need up staying another night. Also as previously reported, the mooring field / harbor was a bit rolly, but that is a nor something the marina can control. We will definitely come back here.
by finxtr on Aug 28, 2020
Everyone was very friendly and professional.
by tributesails on Aug 18, 2020
Very friendly and helpful staff. We were on a mooring and used our own dinghy but stopped for fuel, pump out, water and ice. Two dockhands plus other friendly folks about. Very good about masks. Professional.
by natawhee7 on Aug 18, 2020
Amazing mooring lines that were long and thick. Made us feel very comfortable on the mooring even though we are a 150,000 lb boat. We were able to attach the mooring line right to our cleat instead of needing to attach another line to lengthen it. Dinghy dock close by, although it always was very full we were able to get a spot. Easy trash and cardboard recycling. We had mail sent to them and easily picked it up even on a weekend. Very close to town, maybe a 5 minute walk and close to mount Battie for some hiking.
by kchace on Aug 16, 2020
Loud construction for 2 whole days right next to the boat. A fire 2 months ago shut down the Captains lounge, laundry, nearby rest rooms, nearby showers, ships store, restaurant. All things considered donât feel it was worth the price.
Marina Response:
Needless to say, between Covid-19 restrictions and the effects of the recent fire, it has been a challenging year for our marina. We hope that you will give us another try in the future!by toddharff on Aug 01, 2020
Everyone we met went out of their way to help us enjoy our stay. Great place and wonderful people.
by capsshannon on Jul 31, 2020
Unfortunately Lyman Morse lost their showers & guest lounge to a fire recently. However this is still one of our favorite stops.
by rc2463 on Jul 31, 2020
Staff are terrific, very friendly and helpful. Kim is great. Definitely come back.
by hcoon1 on Jul 21, 2020
Excellent stay at Wayfarer! The dock was well-managed at the busy time of arrival. The launch was courteous, and we were able to get a small part repaired while there!
by rmcaree on Jul 20, 2020
Great location and excellent service from the staff.
by terrybaker57 on Jul 13, 2020
Bad experience. Coming into harbor guy on channel 71 could not verbalize where our mooring bouy was located?? When we went to the marina office found out oh by the way we had a fire 2 weeks ago that destroyed our bathrooms, showers and laundry but you are welcome to our 2 portapoties! Walked to town = a mlle for dinner and called for water taxi back to their marina. No reply so walked to marina and took our dinghy back to the boat. Got a call back just as we boarded with excuses blaming us for not calling on channel 71. I donât know about you but I do not take my VHF radio to shore or dinner. Avoid if you want descent service and honesty about their Services. Also put us at far end of mooring field with bad swells all night when they had lots of mooring space closer in where it was much quieter. They really didnât give a damn if you were comfortable or had a good stay just whined about how bad this summer was with the fire and the virus. Worst hospitality on the ME coast so far!!
by jpowell on Jul 12, 2020
The doc staff was awesome, the availability of a loaner car for driving to the grocery for reprovisioning was exemplary. However, unfortunately there was a fire at the dockside restaurant and bar three weeks ago and the restaurant and bar will be closed for the rest of the season. Currently there are no onshore showers, restrooms, or laundry available
by jxmullen on Jun 30, 2020
They went above and beyond to service my boat (VERY competent staff) and make my stay spectacular (including a loaner car for provisioning.) This is a great marina..
by dclee on Jun 28, 2020
The Lyman-Morse folks did what they needed to and were cordial. No complaints. The harbor was rolly but thatâs not their fault.
by djrobertson on Sep 11, 2019
I always feel like the marina itself and the destination should have two separate ratings. In this case theyâd both be 5 stars.
Lyman-Morse provides a great place to stay in Camden. The inner harbor floats put you right in the middle of all the schooner activity as well as being close to downtown. The free launch service is great, though it stopped running at 3:30 PM after Labor Day. The heads showers and laundry room ashore are immaculate. The courtesy car made a trip to Hannafordâs for groceries very easy.
Camden itself is a wonderful place to visit - in fact we extended our stay to enjoy more of it. There are lots of good restaurants (Marrinerâs serves a great breakfast). The library is out of this world in terms of atmosphere and architecture - including the park and amphitheater giving great views of the harbor. We enjoyed the free walking tour on Friday afternoon.
We also hiked/climbed to the summit of Mount Battie which provided unexcelled views of Penobscot Bay and the islands.
We love Camden and will be back for another extended stay next year.
by amrand on Sep 01, 2019
Phenomenal marina. Every dock hand I encountered was friendly and helpful. They even let me stay a little past check out because they werenât overly busy and we were enjoying town. Great spot and hope to be back next summer!
by kev on Aug 24, 2019
Excellent.... the dock facilities were great and the Dock Hand Service was top notch!
by arktos on Aug 20, 2019
Great mooring. Friendly service. Answered call on VHF 71 immediately. Free launch service. Wonderful stay.
by cwayne on Aug 19, 2019
Journey's end has great facilities and a really attentive staff. complimentary launch makes it easy to get right downtown
by rdepasqua on Aug 19, 2019
Always a great stay - excellent facilities - friendly staff- easy walk to town - restaurant right on dock Rhumb Line fun spot .

Absolutely incredible professional and friendly service. Beautiful location and very nice amenities - showers, laundry etc. Could not have been treated better!
by dhenglish on Aug 13, 2019
The entire staff was friendly and helpful in every regard. The launch service is included in your morning fee and is both timely and again friendly. Highly recommend this marina
by cgklinck892 on Aug 12, 2019
Friendly, helpful staff. Good restaurant and facilities. Launch service was reliable.

Wonderful facilities and super helpful staff!
by psikes79 on Jul 28, 2019
Top notch marina with an extremely friendly and helpful staff. I couldnât have enjoyed it more!
by jessephen on Jul 24, 2019
We were on a mooring yet we were treated just as well as if we were spending much more money on a dock. They have a really nice gathering area with great patio furniture, outdoor fireplaces and a great view. The lounge area and restrooms were superb and they even supply you with great smelling shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. The water was hot and the water pressure was terrific. We got to use a courtesy vehicle to stock up on groceries at the nearby Hannafords and everyone was professional, kind, and friendly. And Camden is awesome!
by glennbig on Jul 17, 2019
One of the most beautiful harbors in Maine. The staff here is right on top of things, very professional and helpful in anyway they can be. I can't recommend them high enough.
by mvruffseas on Jul 16, 2019
Great location and great service by the marina staff. Charlie was of great help and always willing to assist with a smile. Highly recommended.
by ianmoore2468 on Jun 28, 2019
Great showers and facilities. Friendly and helpful dock hands and staff. Short walk to town on the other side of the harbor or the launch will take you over. We were on the dock face float, day-trip schooners and plenty of other boats passing by regularly keeps it interesting but don't expect privacy. It's a working boat yard too, so if you're expecting to sleep in, you might be woken by the travel lift starting up. Didn't worry us, we enjoyed watching the activities when we were on board. Very sheltered and quiet, in the inner harbor so makes for a good night's sleep.
