    We had a great stopover here. I love bicycle riding and the dedicated bike trail was a plus! Friendly staff too!

    We stayed two nights and loved it. Quiet and peaceful. A good restaurant, ice cream, liquor store, and tackle shop on site. A big grocery store about a mile away. We ride bikes and the bike trail was a plus!! Also good for dogs! Staff was super friendly. Well worth the trip off the ICW.

    This is a good stopover. Clean restrooms, nice showers, and a good place to walk your dog. No restaurants close by though. Trent the dockmaster was super nice! Free laundry is hard to beat!! JIM

    I have had 2 great nights here. Plenty of room for a number of boats also. Beaches to the east for your dog.

    This was a great anchorage and had a beach as well as a boat ramp to take our dog for a walk. Good in most winds except strong N-NE-E-SE-S directions.

    We spent a light to no wind night here and enjoyed it. We were 2-300 yards off the waterway and felt minor wakes. Overall good especially with any westerly winds. A north-east or southerly stronger wind this might not be the best place. We did find some beaches on the west side of the ICW for our dog!!

    Nothing but awesome! This yard has very knowledgeable people with years of experience who are willing to help you. The whole yard is very neat and clean all the way around. Opened in 1947 and still doing great work. We were there for almost a month and felt we had family taking care of us! I will definitely go back. They are even dog friendly!!
