All the staff go above and beyond helping residents. Personal favors, working beyond shifts, just helping out like neighbors should. When problems come up, and they do, they all pitch in. They genuinely enjoy their community events just getting people together.

I absolutely love Foss Harbor Marina! It's situated in a great location, right in downtown Tacoma, making it convenient to access various attractions and restaurants. The proximity to I5 is a big plus as well. The staff is amazing, always going above and beyond to assist. The facilities are impeccably clean, creating a comfortable environment. The sense of community here is wonderful, and the scenic locations in the Puget Sound make it a truly special place. Highly recommend!

There's no place like Foss. We been with Foss for, four years now. The staff is wonderful. It didn't take us long to feel right at home. We love the amenities, and our boat neighbors. When we come to stay on the boat, our pups tug us straight to the office to say hi to one of the amazing employees, who always give the best treats and loves. Absolutely dog friendly! In the summer, here are always beautiful flowers, outdoor lounge area with grill, Idoor tenet lounge, kayak and sup rentals and a little store to get snacks/ drinks. I've made great memories and amazing friends there. Never a bad day at Foss!

Marina Response:

Thanks, Angela! We appreciate you being a part of our community. It's the people that make this place amazing!

Great Tacoma location. From the marina, take the bridge elevator and it shoots you right to the downtown level. Friendly staff and good amenities. If you have to be moored south of the bridge, know that the office is a 5-7 minute walk north. I would love for them to add a key drop box so we don’t have to wait for the office to depart. Thanks for a great stay!

Marina Response:

Thanks, Heather. We appreciate the feedback! We do have plans to install the gate key drop boxes and hope to have that done later this year. We look forward to seeing you again! - Ian Wilkinson, General Manager
