Morningstar Marinas - Southport

Very nice and convenient location. Easy walk to town. But, a high price with no weekly rate. Also, Henry no longer gives a nightly weather report.

We love this marina! It is clean and easy to access. The docks are well maintained. Nice facilities and a very well stocked ship store. Quaint little town walking distance with lovely restaurants, southern hospitality. We absolutely love it here and look forward to returning on our trip north!

One of the nicest, cleanest well run marinas on AICW. Easy walking to several good restaurants. New docks and pedestals. You could make this marina a destination.

Awesome facilities and service along with great dining just a short walk away. Completely rebuilt after hurricane Isaias in 2020, everything is in excellent condition. I am SO happy I decided to cut my stay short at a marina only 1 1/2 hrs north and was able to book here using Dockwa.!

Great facility and short walk to restaurants and downtown.

Friendly and accommodating for a late fueling

Great staff very helpful

Great marina and good dock hands. Nice location to walk to Southport stores and restaurants

Great marina with excellent staff. Edgar, Elisha, Gabriel and John were very accommodating allowing us to stay a few extra days because of weather. Nice floating docks and new clean facilities. Short walk into a charming town with many dinning and shopping options.

Great location in Southport with wonderful helpful staff, courtesy car, clean laundry and showers. Unfortunately the pump out station was not working for the three days that I was there. They might consider having a back up, portable pump for this type of emergency. I will still highly recommend it as a stop over with amenities. It is close to the historical downtown with restaurants, shops and a wonderful Maritme Museum within walking distance.

Great staff very clean nice walk to many restaurant choices. As always we will be back. Thank you Jimmy and Paulette

Great facility and lication

Great! Nice and very friendly and helpful staff. Clean and orderly Marina. Will visit again. A short walk in to town and restaurants.

Friendly and helpful dock personnel. Friendly boat owners. Town is great for walking and dining!

Nice dock attendants and manager

Always enjoy Morningstar’s first rate marina and flexible attitude. Staff is great! Love the town, great restaurants!

Great staff, clean facilities , walkable to town, and a dog park! Can’t ask for more!!!!

A well located and well kept marina

First class marina with well-maintained docks and facilities. Dog park is a great addition. Staff was very accommodating and helpful with docking. Their attitude was focused on guest service and comfort. Thanks Edgar and your team for a wonderful stay.

I have recently moved my boat from MA to NC. After researching and visiting other marinas in the area, Morningstar Marina at Southport was the clear choice. Theresa and Eric and their staff are friendly and very helpful, the dock and facilities are in excellent shape. I would highly recommend you visit this maring as your long term home or transient facility

Excellent marina and helping hands but a nightmare finding a ride into town!

We love this marina. Friendly staff. And walking distance to the restaurant area.

Everyone very pleasant and helpful

As always our stay here was outstanding. The staff is very helpful and accommodating. The convenience of being within walking distance of the restaurants and shops near the waterfront is a huge draw.

Staff was excellent. Very friendly and helpful. Piers were nice floaters in good condition. Bathroom/showers were a little bit of a hike. A short walk to a lovely town.

Marina staff were helpful and knowledgeable. Marina was beautiful!

Very nice stop . I enjoyed walking around town and had a nice dinner out.

A nice marina, good facilities. Staff a bit thin at our arrival. Busy, not really their fault.

really nice marina - excellent facilities and great staff short walk to many place to eat & drink!

It’s was our fourth stay. As always the stay was great. Dock hands right there to help out. Having a loaner car was great. I was able to pick up 10 gallons of oil to do an oil change. Unfortunately it rained Friday night so no Dry St. Pizza. See you folks on the return trip. MV Dauntless

Another great morningstar marina. Clean docks that are wide also. Dock hands and fuel dock staff very helpful and friendly. Short walk away from town.

Friendly staff. Great facility. Great town

Our stay could not have been better. Everyone and everything at the marina exceeded pour expectations.

We were initially put on a T head that was 20 too short. We were then put in a slip that was 6 feet too short.

This is a great stop on the ICW. We've been here several times now. Clean, modern, well kept, walk to restaurants, great staff, easy in easy out! Great stop!

Quiet, clean Marina. Great walkable town. We love coming here.

Dockhand, Bob, made our arrival easy. Southport is a nice town with good restaurants.

Clean, quiet marina. Good restaurants nearby.

Always a great stay. Easy in and out. Very friendly staff.

This is my 4 and final attempt at using this Review tab - so here it goes. My stay was great as always, and the staff could not be more helpful. Facilities and nearby town scenery hard to beat. But see below. The restroom code needs to be more secure A year and # sign is NOT a strong password and should be improved - plus I recommend one separate for women. When you combine a simple password with a man/female code only, it makes women in the shower uncomfortable with the ins\outs at night especially. I was told this by experts - that would be women!. Otherwise, highly recommend this location!

I always like that place and the staff is super helpful.

Nice place with great dock hands

Great stay - helpful staff and clean accommodations. Short walk to town and great eateries. We will be back.

Great marina. Great people. Great town. Hard to find a better combination.

Easy to get in and the service and dock master were very helpful.

Such nice guys work here. Love talking to the retirees. They’re so full of wisdom! We’ll be back again soon.

Great location! Scenic surroundings, clean facilities and friendly staff.

Well maintained marina, great people, beautiful town.

For the cost they should have someone assist with docking on dock.

We have been Morningstar customers for a long time, mostly staying at the Golden Isles location. This location did not disappoint as they provide the same high level of service found at the other locations we’ve gone to. The staff are friendly and courteous, the amenities are very clean and there is great potential for outdoor events at the new tiki bar and pavilion area. A nice short walk to downtown Southport takes the pain out of cooking all of the time on the boat! I (hesitantly) highly recommend this marina – only because now I know more people will come here, and we will have to book our reservation earlier!😂

Everything great as always

Nice dock and facilities. Helpful dock staff and management. Easy walking to restaurants and shopping. We have stopped here several times and hope to again.

Staff and facilities were excellent! Humorous and family experience, warm welcome, and excellent customer service. Will be a first-pick destination for me.

Great dock staff ! appreciate the stay

The marina and staff were top notch. From the time they caught our lines to helping with water, fuel, and a pumpout. I highly recommend Southport Morningstar Marina.

Great assistance docking in a 15+ knot breeze. Very close to town and restaurants. Slight negative after hour bathroom code did not work

Great help docking! Thanks

Beautiful marina, very clean throughout the property and all the staff I met were very friendly and helpful. Look forward to visiting again. Stephen F

Excellent dock, power and staff. Dog park is a nice addition

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I have docked here many times over the years in my C-Dory. A very nice marina with a helpful staff and facilities. I routinely launch at the public ramp close by and either gunk hole or dock at South Harbor.

Although the marina is top notch with great docks and staff and walking distance to town and great restaurants, we come here twice a year (while traveling the ICW) to attend Hank Pomeranz's nightly lecture and to get fantastic marine service from Zimmerman Marine. These are two great assets to this marina which make coming here extra special.
