Beautiful marina with easy access. The staff was super friendly and helpful. Bathrooms and laundry were great. A restaurant on site and a few more a short walk away. They had a loaner car which came in super helpful to make grocery and West Marine runs. The pump out is a little tight to reach for our 53' but they usually have pump out at the dock - it wasn't operational when we stayed. Would stay again.

Marina is under major renovations with several docks removed and pool closed. Call ahead to be sure they have your requested services.

Little Creek is most often a place to stop for fuel and a slip while going North/South. That said; it is a nice harbor and a great refuge. We stayed at Morningstar which used to be Viking Marina. The facilities are serviceable but in desperate need of repair. I am told that they are embarking on a large re-do of docks and floats this winter and it will be beautiful upon completion. Maddie greeted us and took our lines. She was efficient and helpful. Fuel is available but it is all the way in back and in tight quarters.

MATT, THE HARBOR MASTER, IS GREAT. WE STAYED OVER A MONTH WAITING FOR REPAIRS AND WEATHER. HE ONLY CHARGED US FOR THE MONTH. HE HELPED US WITH LINES AND ANYTHING ELSE WE NEEDED. THE CUTTY SARK RESTARAUNT HAS GREAT FOOD AND SUPER FRIENDLY PEOPLE. WE MADE FRIENDS HAD A GREAT TIME. WE HAD THE T-HEAD ALL TO OURSELVES. WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND THESE FACILITIES. THEY ARE BUILDING NEW RESTROOMS AND LAUNDRY.

Stay here on July 7, 2020. The marina is now Morningstar Marinas at Little Creek. The people were helpful and nice. They had me tie up at a T-head so I had no problems getting in or out of the marina. While there are floating piers/docks, these old floating docks are in bad shape. Some of the floating finger piers tilted so much that they appeared unsafe to walk upon. The center portion of the of the floating docks serves as location for electric and water lines. The center covers are all in bad condition. Most of the wood panels were old and soft plywood. I didn't like stepping in the center of the docks. I hope Morningstar has plans to renovate. Let me temper my negativity by saying I would stay at the Morningstar Marinas at Little Creek again.
