Great facility and location. Water depth was a little spooky coming in seeing 3 feet of water depth.
Marina Response:
Glad you enjoyed the stop. I’m willing to bet you have a3’ or
More offset on your depth finder.
There is a silt hump as you enter the basin, it is monitored regularly and has not gone less than 6.5’. Inside the basin you can expect 10-12 ft at the docks themselves. We are sorry for the puckering, but you were safe all the way in and out. At 3’ if accurate you would have bumped, or we would have the place closed till we could clear it out.
Once again, sorry for the scare, and we are glad you enjoyed the place, it is beautiful.by Chris H. - Verified user on Aug 19, 2026
James was manning the marina for an event and he was very thorough with his support to all boaters. It was an easy tie up and good experience

Very tight entrance. Quality docks. NO shower, NO pumpout. Great location for a weekend, with casino, bars, etc as ll walking distance.

Beautiful marina off the Mohawk river, Excellent docks and very well maintained. Did not use their bathrooms as the harborfest was going on which is a yearly occurrence in August and this was our third year there. James the lone dockhand was amazing getting everyone in and making sure we were set. Came by several times just to make sure if we needed anything else,

Beautiful facility. Only lacking showers and pump out but overall worth the stay. Great summer entertainment and restaurants with the casino well within walking distance.
Marina Response:
Thank you for the kind words. The word continues to spread of the greatness that Mohawk Harbor represents. That was evident this weekend. We continue to discuss your concerns about the lack of services and hope to have big news in the future.by Bill M. - Verified user on Jul 28, 2026
Great marina, modern and updated. Bars and restaurants are very close by and food is great. Dock hand was ready to handle lines and get us set for the night. And to provide recommendations and assistance for nearby sites.

Entry a little tight but calm and good protection.

Very nice marina with floating docks and very well protected, which is why we stayed to avoid the high winds. Some nice restaurants in same complex and the casino is right there as well with some decent but expensive restaurants. James the dockmaster is fantastic and super helpful, and takes care of you. They do have a trailer with clean toilets, just no showers. Nice place to stay and would definitely stay again.

Mohawk Harbour was a very nice spot. Had a good lunch at Druther’s, so the service was very slow. Only thing that was an issue was we saw 3 foot depth coming into the marina.

Great area to stop and eat and sleep. Nicely protected harbor and all new docks. Truly a great stop

Very nice stop, great dock, friendly staff, James understands towing off the boat! Will stop with lots of food and entertainment nearby.

Nice sturdy transient dock with easy in, easy out and off the river. It's also in a setting with several restaurants and a casino just steps off the dock. It's a bit of a trek into town but worth the effort to check out.

Nice wide floating docks, good shore power, good water pressure, plenty of depth (10 plus) at center dock.
by Ryan L. - Verified user on Sep 25, 2025
Great stop - highly recommend. New floating docks, protected, multiple restaurants and casino right next to marina.
by Ken C. - Verified user on Aug 30, 2025
Good accommodations, fun atmosphere with the bars close by. Very protected from wind so docking is simple. Only complaint is the WiFi didn’t work well for us. Other than that, we’ll be back!

Marina and pier are new and easy to access. Restaurants are close by. Bathrooms are clean and the only reason they did not receive a 5 Star is due to limited amenities (such as shower and laundry). Deck help was great!
by SUSAN S. - Verified user on Aug 09, 2025
The location is very good - short walk to casino and restaurants. However, the marina was empty - we were the only boat one night. The WIFI didn't work on the 2 days/nights we were there. We knew that the only amenities were a small bathroom area (no shower); but did expect that WIFI should work.

Nice Marina, a little shallow entrance but our 5’ draft made with about 3’ clearance. Three good restaurants there

I can not say enough about James, the employee answering the phone and assisting boats. There was an issue with Canal lock 7 for a few days including the day we were supposed to be bringing our boat through the lock. I had sent a message through Dockwa and he not only replied to the message quickly, but took time to call me to give me updates on the status of the lock. When we did arrive, he quickly jumped over to help us dock. He was personable, polite and helpful. Great to see such great service!!

Very nice. All new docks. Dock hands were great. James the Dockmaster was very helpful and on top of his game. Could definitely use an ice machine 😊
