Nice Marina and centrally located. Well maintained docks and decent bathrooms. Good ships store. Only issue was the dock hand seemed laissez faire. Made docking more difficult than it needed to be.
Docks are new and solid. The store has a decent selection. The restuarant was very good with friendly servers. The bathrooms were very clean and updated. The showers were large, had warm water, and good pressure. My only critique would be to put a hook or two inside the shower curtain, so people aren't walking around in the buff when people from the rest come in to use the restroom. Update: They installed a door between the restaurant bathrooms and boaters showers! Rest of review stands. 5 stars. Neat place to stay.
Employees were nice. Dockhands were very helpful. Bathroom / showers were awesome. They said, "The best on the East Coast." I'm not saying they are, I'm just saying I traveled from The Keys to NY and haven't personally seen better.
I was extremely disappointed in my stay. No one helped at gas dock or when I docked. (I single hand so it always helps to have a dockhand). After I was docked there was no one around or in the office, I finally found someone who gave me a gate code on a scrap of paper. The docks were in mediocre condition, and leaning to the side. They were also FILTHY. Yeah, I absolutely blame the jerks who left their garbage all over, but the fact no one cleaned it up for a couple of days & seagulls were spreading it all over is on the Marina. Then there were the bathrooms. They were the most shocking thing, because they have a CLEANING STAFF for an entire hotel & casino, but the showers were FILTHY. I was there multiple days and the same garbage / hair / gunk was in the showers day after day. I expected SO MUCH MORE from the Golden Nugget. I expected ABOVE AND BEYOND service, I'd have settled for average, but instead I got virtually no "service" and the facilities were mediocre at best. I've stayed at so many other Marinas that didn't have anywhere near the resources of the Golden Nugget, yet were clean, much better maintained, and had a employee around once in a while. Next time through Atlantic City I'm going to anchor out.
Marina still has construction going on. The showers / bathrooms are a trailer and there is no laundry. The fingers on the floating dock are a bit small and sink when you step onto them. Dockmaster was awesome. Helpful and just seemed like a good guy. 2 restaurants within a short walk. Electric & water hookups were newer and in good condition.
Employees were very helpful. The floating docks were in great shape. Everything looked pretty new. The marina is right downtown. Within walking distance of USS Wisconsin, museums, and loads of restaurants, coffee shops, etc. My only critique is the bathrooms are a LONG walk away from most of the docks. (They were very nice and clean bathrooms though. Showers were clean, good pressure, hot water.) Great views in the marina, reasonable pricing.
