I am a big Safe Harbor fan. Stayed one night. Restaurant was not open but got fuel. Looks like Safe Harbor is putting a lot of effort into sprucing the place up. Great location at the top of the bay with a nice tiki bar and beach.

Very capable facility with boat yard and fuel. Restaurant and nice pool on site. Docks however need some improvement. Finger piers are very narrow and main piers are worn.

We have been coming to Manteo for over 10 years. Always enjoy visiting. It is too bad that Karl Jordan has retired as the dock master. He was the best. We self docked ourselves at the T head which was not a problem. There are always friendly boaters to help dock our boat

Nice facility right in the heart of downtown. Great restaurants nearby on Granby St. Good rates and very little roll through the boat basin.

Nice small marina with floating docks. Town is very cute. Great doughnut shop and a few restaurants. However we were there on a Monday and only the Blarney Stone was open. Very good pub food. Farmers market on Saturday

Had a nice 2 day stay. Disappointed that the restaurant was closed but pool was nice to have on a hot day. Great internet. Docks are a bit worn and there is no breaker for power. Hot power plug!

Marina Response:
Thanks so much for your review. Apologies that our new on-site restaurant wasn't quite open, but we're pleased to let you know that not only will it be opening soon, our docks (and dockside power) are slated for renovation this winter. Stay tuned, and we hope to see you again!

What a great place. There are activities galore and many places to eat at on property. Beautifully manicured grounds and helpful staff. WiFi was better than most marinas. The harbor area was a bit weedy but no problem with fouling the prop. Air conditioning strainer picked up a few weeds after 2 days. A must stop place.

Marina Response:
Thank you for taking the time to rate us! We are struggling with the weed issue and are aware that it can cause some issues. State and Federal laws govern what we can do to limit the weed growth in the harbor. We will certainly make an effort to keep the weeds under control to the extent that we are able. Thank you for visiting and we hope to see you again.

We stayed there for a few days and enjoyed the marina very much. Dock hands were friendly and helpful. Special thanks to Kyle who is the manager and attentive to boaters needs. Docks are pristine and power is the best we have experienced. WiFi is very fast. Best on the lake. Centrally located to Burlington.

So close to Canada we could smell the poutine. Nice facility with friendly staff. Easy walk to town.

Stayed 2 nights there on our way north. Thinking about making it our permanent dock for our Sabre 48. Met some nice people at the dock and was invited to their Thirsty Thursday happy hour on the deck. Michelle the dock master was very helpful. They are updating the fuel system so hopefully will be operational soon.

You can always expect something nice from Marriott. Very nice resort with beach, tiki bars and pools. Unfortunately the main restaurant was not open due to Covid. Marina staff was friendly and helpful. I rated it at only 4 stars because the slips were a bit rocky in a north or south wind. Not good wave attenuation. Good for a short stay.

Very nice facility. Due to COVID the water taxi was not running over to Charleston. Hot tub was very nice after playing 18 holes at the nearby links. Resort fee is a bit pricey for the winter months since it was too cold for the pool. They should have reduced resort fees for the winter. I will definitely come back again.

Docks are in great shape. Dock master, Steve was very helpful and got our power problem fixed in a very timely way. The town was undergoing major road project so many stores were not open. It will be beautiful when finished. A good stop.

Super nice place. Great pool on a hot day with a restaurant next to it. Played 9 holes of golf at their pitch and put course and used their loaner bikes to go to town for lunch. The reason for only 4 stars is their WiFi was very weak. We were only halfway out on the dock. In spite of the WiFi the Tides Inn was a great stop.

Marina Response:
We are so happy that you enjoyed your stay at the Tides Inn Marina - it was truly our pleasure having you as a guest, and we are delighted you were able to take advantage of our resort amenities during your visit. Thank you kindly for your feedback regarding the WiFi - this is something we continuously look to improve. We hope to welcome you back soon.

Nice marina and everyone was very friendly and helpful. Nice pool to cool off on a warm day. Family run for many years. Easy access to the Potomac River. Great place to launch the dinghy and explore. Several loaner cars available.

Overall a nice facility with friendly dock staff. Convenient to town. The RAR brewery has good beer and crab cakes. Dock boards could use replacing and that is why I gave it 4 stars.

We have been coming to Dowery Creek for 10 years. This was our first stay in a while and there was great improvements to the facility. New dock boards and power pedestals. Staff was very helpful and friendly. This visit was during the corona virus lockdown so we did not get off the boat.

This was the second year we stayed for a month. Very nice facility with friendly dock hands and very attentive to any need. Restaurant is awesome and the pools are clean and inviting. One drawback is the internet is marginal at best. We were only 50 feet from the repeater and had weak signal. For a quality facility like this they should have On Spot.

Marina Response:

Stayed for 2 days with 95 degree heat. Pool was a welcome amenity. Nice gift shop and lovely grounds. Some docks need new deck boards but it looks like they are working on it. Fun stay.

Nice folks and very helpful with a nice welcome package. We were tied at a T head and other boaters did not pay attention to the no wake zone by the marina. Rolled a lot.
