Excellent Marina. Well managed with all the facilities and docks clean and squared away. Pool has full service bar, free laundry with plenty of machines. Dock master is very good and will work with transient captains to get best rates. Town has lots of restaurants. Bikes available to ride short distances to hardware store, West Marine and grocery stores.

This Safe Harbor is why we are members!!! Dave and his dock staff are outstanding in every way. The floating docks are excellent. The onsite restaurant is very good. The pool has not been open our two stays but it looks great. We need to stop here during the summer. Thank you Dave!!!
5/28/26 stay. Had short haul for cleaning and zinc replacement. Fantastic crew, hard workers. This marina is a favorite. We will be back.

We only spent a short time at the marina but working with the dockmaster and staff for an after hour arrival was easy. The showers and boater's lounger were excellent. The location of the marina was very well protected.

Such web marina, facilities, and location. The mooring field is tight, especially when full of similar size ~40 ft boats. We had another boat *kiss* us in the night. Also, when coming around to pick up, watch out for shallow depth.

Very snug spot. We staid on a mooring and it was very comfortable with ready access to shore. Very helpful people working there. Free laundry and a great Italian restaurant on site.

We always enjoy staying at Zahniser’s. The GM, Dave, is wonderful and sets the tone. Everyone there is more than happy to help and accommodate whatever you need during your stay with them. Their dock hands are excellent. Their pool is lovely. The restaurant on site served a delicious meal. As well, my husband enjoyed borrowing one of their bicycles. All told, they always exceed our expectations.

We love staying here on the mooring balls. The marina is well maintained, the staff is welcoming, and the onsite restaurant is always one of our favorites.

As usual, the place was in great shape and clean. We came in to get out of the weather and they were very accommodating. Local area has both places to stock up and areas of entertainment. We’ll be back in the spring.

Nice well protected marina. Great instructions coming in and help in getting docked in higher winds. Weather changed alot during our stay and they were able to accommodate us a few more nights stay to get past the bad weather. Good restaurant onsite LaVela. Lots of other restaurants and some shops all within easy walking distance. Restrooms/showers clean and very nice. Laundry 3ea washer/dryers that work well. Staff is very nice and pleasant. They have a shuttle service so you can get things done. Provisioning, getting prescriptions etc. Nice option. Floating docks are nice and well kept. Great places to walk the dogs and a very nice dog walk area as well.

Excellent all around! We have stayed here twice now, and we will certainly be back! Terrific staff, wonderful amenities, great restaurant on site, FREE laundry, shuttle to grocery store. I have always had great experiences at Safe Harbors, but by far, Zahniser's leads the way. I only wish you all were closer to where our 'home base' is going to be when we are done with the loop! thanks for being a great place for us!

Easy to reserve a mooring ball from the bay using Dockwa. Very convenient. Moorings provide good protection from weather and are very close to dinghy dock. Individual restrooms and showers are exceptionally clean.
