Our stay was great this time. Rocks are marked and docks nice and clean.
Marina Response:
Thanks for your input. I can tell you the birds make a mess quicker than we can clean it up.
Did you hit rocks if so please tell me where so we can address.
Sorry your stay was not a 5 star on your 2nd visit .by Kirk S. - Verified user on Dec 20, 2025
The marina is a good stop when causing on the St John's River, staff was helpfull and responded promptly to some issues, captain's lounge was a pleasure, clean, and we'll cared for, one issue was the WI-FI didn't reach the docks. There is good public transportation for provisioning. Docks have a Max 14' beam unless on the "T" head.

Could use more cleats fwd to be able to tie off boat better. But floating dock was in in decent shape and gated access was nice and functional.

Nice restrooms. Docks a bit exposed to the east and covered with bird poop. Great location.
