We were here too late in the season I guess as the pool and hot tub were closed (Sept. 21, 23.) That was a bummer! The marina is secure with locked gates that we never found open. It is a large marina and had a large captain's lounge. It is close to downtown and within walking distance of a number of restaurants. For a large grocery store though a car is needed to get there. We had a couple of farmer's markets on the weekend for us to stock up on veggies. We would definitely come back here.

Nice enough facility with restaurants and shops nearby. We had a confirmed and prepaid reservation through Dockwa and arrived after hours to find that no key or slip assignment had been left for us. We chose an empty-looking slip and made the best of it and were grateful for the assistance of neighboring boats.

Excellent stop. Location, location, location. Well protected harbor within walking distance to restaurants and museums.

Forced to stop at the fuel dock to pick up key and slip assignment. Fuel dock staff didn't catch a line. Two people off a sailboat caught our lines and helped us out while the staff stood there and watched. No help at all getting into our slip. Dock walkway is crowded with people's stuff. Slips are nice and wide. Wide fairways make docking easy but on a windy day a line handler would have been very helpful. Well protected from winds and waves. Lots of large parks that are great for walking a dog.
