We had a very enjoyable stay in Cape Charles at the town docks. They have continued to upgrade the condition of the marina and the management and staff are super professional. We had to stay an extra day for weather and they were very accommodating. We moved mid-stay to pump out and take on fuel which was done in some windy conditions with no problems. The town is great with some fun stores and excellent ice cream shops. Watch the sidewalk step-ups where the storm drains make them a big step. Well worth a visit.

The Dockmaster answered and had two dockhands ready to tie us up at our slip. Thank you all!

Staff was spot on from the minute we hailed. Slip assignment was clear and concise. Two staff members had us settled in no time, checked in on us. Restrooms were clean and stocked. Great place!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Cape Charles Town Docks. The staff was very eager to help us get settled in and dockmaster Paula was super friendly and full of information about the area. The town is very charming and even has nice beaches within walking distance. It's also a great place to ride a bike. I highly recommend this marina and the town!

The town dock is now under new management and has made great improvements to their service. The Dockmaster pays good attention to request and reservations. Dock hands are readily available, friendly, and willing to assist in any way. Maintenance of the docks seems to be a higher priority under the new regime.

Marina Response:

Thank you for the 5-star review! We're so happy that you had a good experience with us. Come back to see us! I'll be in touch if something opens up in early August. Have a great 4th of July! Happy Summer! Take care, Paula

Easy access to t hi as marina and helpful dock assistance. Good restaurant on sight. Lots of working boats but they did not present any problems. The bathrooms are a bit of a walk, doors are coded that's a plus, showers very small good hooks provided but no bench inside shower space, no shelf or spot for shampoo or wash cloth. Access to town and the beach was easy, lots of weekly rentals local merchants were very friendly. Brown dog ice cream is great as is MASON BAKERY

Cape Charles Town Docks is a wonderful marina! Paula and the dock staff are fantastic, helping us with fueling and docking in our slip. We wanted to stay an extra day to wait out some weather and Paula was very accommodating. The marina wifi worked great, and the bathrooms and showers were very clean. The town of Cape Charles is very quaint and an easy walk from the marina. We enjoyed visiting the shops, especially Coastal Baking Co and Brown Dog Ice Cream. We look forward to our next stay at Cape Charles Town Docks!

Marina Response:

Excellent all around. Docks were high quality. Dock hands accessible and friendly. WiFi and electric service was great and dependable. Their information sheet was comprehensive. Paula in the office was very friendly, even to my dog Major. The setting was charming and relaxing. I highly recommend it. I will be coming back.
