Review for Portland Public Docks

We were tied up next door at Len's Cove. The town docks are perhaps a 100 yard walk.
The town docks look to be in good repair. Some 30amp power outlets are visible for the spots closer to shore. A new section of dock added to the end does not have power. The older closer to shore section of dock does not have power for every space, but as long as you have a second extension cord, you would likely be able to plug in.
No water or other services. Sign says public restrooms are at the community center building, which is a 3 minute walk up the hill.
A signboard lists the fee for per night for transient dockage. You put your cash in box - honor system.
The Galley Restaurant at Len's Cove is right there - you can see it from the town docks. There is a pizza place a few blocks away. Portland Foodmarket is more of a large convenience store, with a very, very limited stock of groceries. Not really a great place for stocking up on groceries.
We walked around the little bit of town right around the marina - there is not much there. A few blocks of houses, a community center building, post office, LCBO liquor store, pizza place, one art gallery "open by chance or appointment" according to the sign.View location on the Waterway Guide Explorer
