called last minute for transient slip and staff very accommodating. When we arrived greeted by 3 very helpful dock hands who helped us tie up, connect power and get ice.
Great clean bath house with free washers and dryers. They are fully staffed and walk the docks checking lines periodically. Bad weather came in and they easily accommodated us for another night. They have a great little store, fuel, pump out, restaurant on site and many more within walking distance along with shopping and a great museum for kids.View location on the Waterway Guide Explorer

We broke down on way to Beaufort and had to be towed from North Edisto River. No other marinas wanted to take us since we were not under own power. Tow Boat US recommended them and they welcomed us even though after hours. Steve came out to help us in and get set up. They provided a free courtesy car for 3 hours so we could provision. Recommended a great restaurant Wild Olive and entire staff very helpful including the repair parts that came they brought right to our boat. The marina is great now and they are doing additional upgrades. Can't wait to see it in the spring on way back up North. Would plan a couple days to try other restaurants, breweries and distillery an Uber away.

Great marina and staff very helpful to assist with docking. Great floating docks and very protected. Great proximity to local restaurants although the ones at Waterside where closed Monday and Tuesday possibly due to off season. Definitely would stay again but add additional day for the Navy Museum it was closing as we got there but still got to see the Wisconsin with Christmas decorations.

Great marina with nice restaurant and bar on site. We were here in off season but place is like a resort, very well maintained. The Dockmaster David was very helpful as were the dock hands. Food at restaurant was very good and live music as well. They have a West Marine on site and courtesy car to take you to markets

We arrived on a Sunday off season. They were closed but told us tie up on T dock which was very easy and had a smooth night. Best surprise was the La Vela Italian restaurant on site which was fantastic.

Great marina. Nancy in the office and the dock hand both very helpful. No restaurants open as it was off season but facilities were very nice and clean. They don't have fuel but there is a great fuel dock just past them.
