    Pro: Nice pool/restroom complex.
    Inexpensive moorage rate.

    Con: Everything else. Marina is old and tired. Water had a metallic taste. No staff assistance in docking.

    Conclusion: Would not go here again. Our first slip assigned had 1950's 50 amp power infrastructure one had to climb a ladder to reach and we could not connect. The second slip was too narrow for our 15.5 beam. T-head we finally got to has a steel narrow dock covered with rotting wood full of rusty nails and was exposed to wakes in the river.
