A great stop with power, water and restrooms. Plenty of cleats in a quiet park setting. Only concern is A) depth and B) unclear check-in process. Water depth is somewhere around 6-6.5 feet. There are numerous signs with a website to check-in and pay, but the website doesn't function well and it indicates that a 24 hour notice is required for a reservation. We left a voice mail at the number listed. Very nice area with an Aldi within a .4 mile walk.

If you like a well built dock with power and water with quiet surroundings. West Canal Marina is the right place. The town must have spent a lot of money on this park. We were the only ones here. 5 double power pedestals with two taps for water. Limit of 3 nights. Walmart 1.9 miles away, great walk through quiet neighborhood. Aldi's within .5 miles. Well light at night, no concern over security.

Nice looking place, unfortunately I could not land. Depth at east end 4.7' depth at west end 5.0'. My boat draws 5.2'. Note, goes from 10' to 5' quick. Was stuck twice trying. Soft muddy bottom where I was at.

Shoal rocky on east end of wall-dock from east most power station to east end of dock. Facility has restrooms, shower, 5- power stations with 30 amp and water. Cleats are closely spaced for mooring options. The low rating is because there is not warning of submerged rocks.

Free dock with water and power. No laundry, Aldi's 0.5 mile, Walmart 1.5 miles. Niagra Falls $25 Uber ride. Is only 5' at the wall.
