3rd year at Cove, and was the best yet. The new manager Tom is a great addition and asset to the marina! Always attentive and getting things done. Communication on weather and other marina happenings were plentiful! Looking forward to next year! Mark Huzar (Dude)

Great, the marina was real easy to get to. Friendly staff, clean bathrooms and walking distance to the Deck restaurant. Music and good food!

Great slips, really nice people who are always ready to lend a hand, and beautiful spot. Fun marina gatherings. For a new boater, watch those currents when docking 😀.

We have been Cove Dwellers for thirty plus years. In that time Brian has increased available services and Cove events. We will continue to enjoy his attention to all Dwellers as long as we boat. Thank you, Brian. Tom and Dy Hebert. (Festus)

Friendly group of boaters, relatively hassle free docking on the current ripping Merrimack, accommodating management, quality docks....just zero hassles and the best accomodations I have experienced on the river.
