Great place to stay with a great view of the Old City across the bridge. Clean bathrooms and laundry area and the staff were very friendly. I’ll keep the 5 star rating but beware…..arrive at the time when they suggest you arrive because the current really rips through! We arrived about an hour before and it was still ripping and we had a south wind going with the current. We had to back off and come back an hour later and still had a challenging approach but were able to dock with no issues. We have a new boat with a joystick control AND a bow thruster but with the current and the wind using both was still inadequate. Once the current died down all was well. We don’t have a lot of wake issues during the night as some have mentioned in this thread. They do have No Wake buoys out there now so nights are comfortable. Good place to hang out for a few days a check out the Old City and the Whetstone Chocolate factory tour!

Plenty of deep water! Currents are strong so you have to pay attention. Docking with slack tides is best. People are very friendly and willing to help. Some wooden pilings are not well grounded so watch out.

It was the worst marina ever. Was not able to dock because no assistance. I asked for an remboursement.

Great Location just don't park in A1 the tide makes it impossible to dock there, but Marker 8 was very accommodating and move me to A13. The marina had really nice showed you could use along with Bathrooms. This is place to dock your boat and not deal with the weekend crowds

What a glorious way to be introduced to the oldest city in America. Our boat slip had a commanding view of the harbor and fort and bridge. And the owner has the best chocolate company right next door. A real tragedy... lol. Very clean and well kept property. And the price was respectable. Next time could we please have it a little warmer...

Excellent Marina with the very best hotel staff. Great food at the hotel and the amenities are also very good. Clean and Crisp

by Tom S. - Verified user on Jan 10, 2025
Excellent location, hotel staff very attentive even if you're just a transient. Nice hot tub, no pool and no restaurant which is only reason for 4 stars vs 5

For all larger boat owners (ours is 48ft catamaran), the owner of this marina does not want you to use your docklines with any tension to bring your bow or stern in. You will not be able to use common docking practices and it may not even be possible to dock under winds in the teens and the persistant strong current. She (the owner) was very turse to the extent that she even without communicating took a line out of the hands of a dockhand and threw it back in the water as she rambled on about how she just had her dock fixed and she needs the boat to approach the dock without tying off the front or stern first in order to bring either opposite end into the dock. We've never been greeted at dock as we were on this one and we chose to leave and find an alternative. We went close by and were greeted as expected where the dock hands understand how to tie up without any trouble dispite the same wind and current conditions. I'm sure she is a good person trying to make a living but it was a waiste of our time and had she communicated all of the unusual requirements for docking ahead of time we would have chosen a different Marina. Her attitude is to be more concerned about her dock than your $1M boat even under the most common of docking practices. It was a very strange experience for us. Strange enough for me to feel the need to write this review when I have never written a review before.

The staff was awesome. Looking forward to our next visit.

How can this marina makes money? The monthly rate is fairly low and it comes with free ice, pool and free snack every afternoon! Very worth the price. The staff are friendly and helpful and the bathrooms are clean. The view of the Bridge of Lions is awesome. There are a lot of tourist trap type restaurants nearby, so it takes a hike to provision. The only negative, they don't clean the trash that washes up to the shoreline of their property.
