This is a quiet, modern well functioning marina. I really enjoy all its attributes. That said its biggest assets are the people. Connie in the front office is a sweetheart and Pete who handles the sailboat side of the marina is an expert at his job. I even like the security guards. Rob Kress

Well lets see, First off no communication radio to monitor inbound guest!
Really? I think a handheld cost what, $100 these days ? We had to wait around the gas dock to find someone to assist up becuase after we drove down to out assingned dock their was a boat in it. We then had to turn around becuase with the lack of commincation radio noboday was around to assist us to find another dock. Theirfore back to the gas pumps to hover around waiting for other boats to clear before we could use the Q card I wrote on so we did not have to yell over the rest of the boats Nobody to assist us had to wait some more to get this resoved and find another place for us My first experinece was not a good one to say the least. No sure if this is how the place runs or not No radio is unacceptable for a major marina this size a busy place

Superb staff, good secure location and easy in and out for 60+’ boats. Nick and his fuel dock team were enthusiastic, knowledgeable and always available. Good stop before tackling the St Clair River and its current.

So helpful and great staff. Would definitely come back. Taylor and Graham at the fuel dock were excellent young adult and couldn’t have been nicer. We need a gasket for our sea strainer cap and the office staff drove us to a marine parts store. Love this place

Very organized and great people to communicate with during the reservation process. They accommodated 3 boats in our group. All right next to each other in the new docks. Thank you so much. We will be back.

We had an issue with our boat and coasted into the marina with some very kind boaters there to help us. Chris the head of security also was very kind and understanding that we coasted into a fuel dock and stayed for the night.

The staff at the marina were excellent.
We birthed at E67. We draft 5 ‘ an initially grounded in the slip.
I hadn’t been to JB in many years and found it to be a bit run down at our slip area.
We had a bit of trouble getting electrical connection as it seemed the terminals were a bit corroded. After 3-4 attempts at hook up all seemed good.
We did notice at other areas there were new floating docks they look great.
We stopped at the gas dock to pump out. The staff were excellent! But the $20 charge for a pump out is a bit high. Over our travels we have found many now do not charge for pump out or at most $10-12 is the norm.
We are members and took advantage of the no charge reciprocity of no fee d for transient. It’s a wonderful perk thank you.
I maybe a little hard on the review only because I take pride in being a SH member and I want to see SH being the Cadillac facility.

Great Marina on the Shores of Lake St Clair. We were docked on the Seawall which wasn’t Ideal, however we made it work. Great Marina and little to no wake movement. Easy fuel and pump-out. Great Stay!

Beautiful and well kept marina. I was given very clear instructions every step of the way to navigate to my slip. We went to Zeph's, Mike's and Watermark Restaurants. All were amazing. Also had a nice pool day with the welcoming members of Jefferson Yacht Club. We will be back soon.

We had a little problem when we arrived but it all got solved. Our inverter went bad and we were able to get it replaced as well as get some other repairs done while at Jefferson Beach. Chris, the transient manager, was very attentive and helpful. Everyone on the docks was great. Nick, at the fuel dock did an excellent job with our very skittish intake (no spills!). We had lots of help from the courtesy golf carts. Bathrooms and showers were excellent. Easy access to restaurants.

The team at Jefferson Beach went above and beyond, hard-working young men, very helpful when we arrived. Helped us fuel. Would highly recommend, what was it again.

Convenient location with friendly professional staff.

I have been at Jefferson Beach Marina since 2011 and have a great experience overall. The marina continues to make improvements, the service staff is friendly and helpful. I would also like to give a big shout out to the service team (mechanics) led by Ron Jiovani who have always done great work on my last two boats and have helped me out in several situations for urgent repairs.

UPDATE - we did re-book our night that ended up being 2!
Experiencing an engine issue, the marina got someone out that afternoon so we could get underway the next day. Staff couldn't be nicer. Vince @ the marina was super quick responding. Great facility, clean and pretty easy to get to. Restaurants close by and in the Marina. Highly recommend but I think they are super busy in the summer months.
Post before we booked - We did not end up staying due to the weather, so my rating is more on the customer service. The marina was very quick responding to our messages and inquiries. Our slip info and bathroom codes were sent well in advance as well as a contact phone number if needed. Unfortunately, due to the changing weather, we had to cancel our reservation and that was confirmed within minutes. We will definitely try to get to this marina in the future!!
