    100% peaceful. No wake or waves. Enough water around the bend. Anchored on the exact Waterway Guide mark.

    We couldn't get in here due to wind however we stayed across the river behind the sailboat mooring field and had a very peaceful night and didn't move an inch.

    We stayed here in high winds and a big thunderstorm. No issues at all. Beautiful place and a quick off and on the ICE.

    One of our top 10 in the country! From the front office to the fuel dock, 100% awesome. Clean, convenient and kind. A car to use and so much available for delivery as well. Will stay here again.

    We spent one month here, mostly off the boat, but we visited regularly. From the moment we made our reservation until we left, the staff were professional, courteous, and helpful. It's off the beaten path but we ubered and had family nearby. (But it is a long walk from the transient docks to the parking lot.) The bathrooms and laundry were nice and clean. The store had ice and beer and a few other things but no groceries. Very reasonable rates. We will stay here again.

    Loved our 4 night stay here. The people that run the marina are very nice and responsive. Facilities are clean. Small shop with ice, snacks, beer/wine and a restaurant on site (Tuesday-Sunday). Low fuel price when we were there! Lots of Ubers and easy to the laundromat, grocery, beach and everything really! Right on the ICW. We will stay here again.

    East on and off the ICW. A lot of local traffic but otherwise little to no waves. Definitely feel the wind which made for great sleeping! Current is strong, but the holding excellent. Anchor came up clean.

    Came in near high tide. Anchored in the middle and at low tide, saw 8 feet. No waves even on 20 mph north east wind. Good holding. Would not plan on departing at or near low tide due to lower water at the mouth of the creek. Beautiful spot.

    No cell service but the most beautiful night sky. Saw the Milky Way! Quite a bit of naval air drills in the sky, early evening. Fishermen at sunrise, but a great place to conveniently pull off on the Alligator River.

    It's a ride up to the anchorage but once we were safely anchored we felt like it was worth the distance off the river. Just a couple of fishing boats around. One bar on AT&T.

    Great spot to protect from south and southwest wind. Plenty of water. Peaceful. Not great ATT service but works.

    Awesome stop. Stayed twice now; once headed north and once headed south. Nice and helpful people. Excellent restaurant. Sone wake, no power but super convenient and great fuel prices. Cute town and an easy walk to the beach.
