Beacon Marina

The accommodations are pretty mediocre. Power and water were available, though an 50amp splitter cable is your best option. Staff were friendly and helpful, though I’m not sure where the marina office actually was. We enjoyed our brief stay. We went to see a concert at the Calvert Marine Museum, which boarders the marina’s parking lot., making it a very short walk to the venue. There is a smallish pool that looked well maintained though we didn’t use it and there is a restaurant, Anglers, at the end of “D” dock, where we were docked, that serves breakfast Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Our food was good, though service was pretty slow. Regardless, we enjoyed our breakfast. Our only complaint is the bathhouses. Shit show doesn’t begin to describe them. The doors to the ladies shower don’t lock, neither does the door to the men’s toilet. One shower pan on the men’s side was rotted out and the inside of the door to the toilet stall clearly hadn’t been cleaned in a good while. It even looked like it had feces smeared on the lower part of the stall door. We appreciated the location. However, the ownership of the marina is missing the point if they don’t think the bathhouse is an important feature of the accommodations.

The facility needs a complete face-lift. Bathrooms below average, they don't sell ice. Joe, who was the gentleman on duty when we arrived was very helpful. The Marina is conveniently located to the museum.

Restroom maintenance has greatly improved.

Stayed two nights. Never saw a single employee or dock hand. Arrived and departed alone. No Wi-Fi. Bathrooms were not usable. But it was quiet and calm and a close walk to what we needed.

We had an excellent overnight stay at Beacon Marine after the 2024 Fall Race to Solomon's Island. The marina is well maintained and very affordable with very easy access to Back Creek. It has an adjoining Quality Inn where you can stay if you want to get off the boat, which we did after a 7 hour race. It also has the Angler's Inn. No fine dining, but good bar food and a very good breakfast - great Solomon's vibe.

Horrible. When we got to Beacon marina, there was no one to tell us where to dock our boat. We even called the hotel, and they were no help. We ended up tying up at an adjacent marina. Will never use Beacon again, and they should refund our dock fee.

Very nice webbase.

Large covered slip with a great view

Great staff great port

Everything was good and they told good care of my boat. Thanks

Definitely would stay there again ! Dockmaster "JOHN " was super nice and helpful , concerned , and made certain I was tied up - moored safely at slip before he departed ~~~ 5 -STAR for Beacon for me .... Larry - Va Beach, Va . 23451

They are working hard to make improvements. New decking on docks, electrical pylons, etc. John the dockmaster is great. On a summer weekend they had live music at the onsite bar, and the restaurant was even open for breakfast. Short walk to West Marine and a booze store.

Nice marina. Took a while to get my assigned slip once we arrived and it turned out there was a boat in it. We had to pick another slip as no one from the marina was there, answered their texts or messages.

A bit noisy with all the fishing charters early in the am. Bathroom and shower dirty and old. Pool area could of been better maintained all pool umbrellas were broken.

Bathrooms need to be cleaner

Very nice marina. Everything went extremely smooth.

Walking distance to everything in town… Pool, Hotel and Restaurant with live entertainment and waterfront views. Great price and location!

We arrived at 1:30 and were unable to contact dockmaster. We circled for a while, then just picked a spot on the t-head in front of another boat who had had the same experience. Frustrating. Later we spoke to him in the rest..the spot we picked was where he wanted us. He was working around heavy equipment and couldn't hear. Restrooms are clean, but small. Two showers in each restroom.

Good dockage, but the bathrooms & showers need work

Good service with a convenient location in Solomons Island at a reasonable price.

It was safe enough, baths need to be upgraded. Friendly

Nice, quiet & conveniently located. Owner was headed out of town but no prob making arrangements via Dockwa. No deckhands about to help tie up but we regularly tie up by ourselves anyway so no biggie. On-site restaurant serving fresh seafood. Docks in the process of being rebuilt- ours had new stringers, decking, elec & water hookups installed. Bathrooms not fancy but very Very clean.

Location good and other boat owners, including the charter captains were great, but docks in poor repair and being poorly repaired, pool rough and bathrooms marginal. Will not be a first choice when next in town.

Marina was clean. Lots of upgrades. My crew liked the Anglers Restaurant on site. Will be back.

very convenient to the hotel there was a Pool everything‘s a little tired but very clean and works perfectly
