    We had to make an unscheduled stop here for a shaft issue. The staff were very friendly and very accommodating! The technician that worked on our boat was Bob and he was very honest, capable and professional. They were able to haul us right away and do the repairs in short order. They allowed us to stay on board while doing the repairs which was appreciated. Nice bathroom facilities, free washer and dryer. Would highly recommend for repairs!

    Nice place. Docks are in good shape. Had someone meet us at the dock to handle lines. Very friendly. Owner came out to greet us. They let us borrow a truck so we could go to Niagara Falls and the store. Service center and ships store on site. Good rates and they run specials. 2 bathrooms and free laundry. Would stay again.

    We stayed 2 nights Geoff and his entire crew are very helpful and pleasant. Great spot for dog walking. Our 30-50 Amp adapter didn't work and Geoff loaned us his personal adapter. A little tough getting our elderly golden retriever onto the fixed dock but it worked just fine. We would definitely stop here again.

    Smith Boys is an excellent stop. We spent a week here and the staff and facilities were excellent. The seasonal slip holders were also great people. We rented a car from Enterprise who picked us up and dropped us off at the marina. Great location to explore the greater Niagara Falls and Buffalo area.

    If you can't find space on the wall in Tonawanda, this is the place! The staff are incredibly helpful, friendly and knowledgeable of the area. Transients tie up on a face dock. Clean bathhouse with free laundry. Great on-site dining option - currently open Fri - Sun. Uber to Niagara Falls
