We had opportunity to stay 3 nights here as we fixed a few minor boat problems. Mike (manager), Steve and Rich really helped us out. We stayed on a mooring ball for $45 a night. There is a convenient launch, but they also accommodated our dinghy for frequent and late night trips to shore. There are showers and bathrooms, pumpout and water. The only thing missing is gas, but that is pretty close.
I can not tell anyone enough how professional and nice this group of people are. They made our stay a pleasure in so many ways.
There are cafes, grocery, laundry and car rental all within walking distance. (We walked two miles for the car rental.) If you have dogs, there is a small park and beach for play and walking. The neighborhood is also fantastic for good long walks. The local businesses treated our dogs like kings. If you are walkers, do not miss the Broad street area for a look at a little New Jersey main street and do not miss Barnacle Bills for a great burger and beer.

This place is spotless and is in tip top condition (Can be tricky to get up the Navesink River at low tide) No hustle and bustle. Shot walk to library, hardware store and coffeshop.
