Review for Burton Island State Park

Nice stop to explore ashore and to escape weather. Small shop on shore selling souvenirs and a few provisions, including ice. The outer moorings with larger floats are for boats 35ft and up. They are less protected in a northerly than the moorings for smaller vessels. Moorings are first come first serve and cost $50 in 2022. Slips are available in the outer harbor for $80. There is a well protected inner harbor with dockage, but the mouth of the inner harbor is limited by a 3ft shoal. Also, there is a ferry that runs several times a day that kind of detracts from the outer moorings and slips. Shore access is very good and the park is pet friendly.
