A great spot off of ICW on our way north. Great customer service. They called on the morning of our arrival with slip assignment. We pumped out in our slip ($5). Local friends picked us up for dinner, otherwise there are no restaurants within walking distance.
We were seeking a safe harbor from predicted winds and they provided that and more! Really nice dock hands and great docks. We needed to extend our stay one more night and they were very accommodating. We really enjoyed our stay and hopefully at our next visit, we will be able to use the pool!
This is a tricky spot to dock in high winds and current. The dock master, Craig, met us at the dock with extra hands to help us into our slip. Craig is very responsive and helpful. We were expecting high winds, but the local fishing boats who ignored the no wake zone, rocked us more than the winds. We had dinner at Souther Salt (a block away) - good food and friendly staff.
We had an overnight stay at the marina. The dock master was nice and helpful. We had a beautiful view of the ICW from our face dock. Very friendly boaters at the marina.
Can't say enough good things about this marina and it's staff! If we weren't trying to outrun Debby, we would have stayed longer! I was first impressed by a quick, after-hours confirmation of our Dockwa reservation. The dock master was very experienced and helpful in directions and assistance with lines. The docks are in excellent shape and the grounds are beautiful. There's a ship store that has basic needs. The main restaurant was closed but there was a casual dining facility open and we had a great meal. There's a pool and a bar by the pool. Everything is well kept and the staff are super friendly! We are coming back for sure!
The last visit was our 2nd time at BLM. We absolutely love the friendly and helpful staff here, as well their active social activities. The docks are in great shape and the fuel prices are very reasonable. We will be returning in the fall for a longer stay.
Nice marina and very helpful staff. They went above and beyond to help us resolve a mechanical issue. There are a few restaurants within the marina. We ate at the Carolina Crab Company; very friendly staff and tasty food. There is also free laundry available at the dock.
Quaint marina with very nice floating docks. Make sure you go in at high tide. There's plenty of water at the marina, but the beginning of the channel can be shallow. Self service fuel pump and free pump out. (A sign indicated10% ethanol on the gas pump). No radio communication, but the marina responded via Dockwa. No one met us so we picked a t- head to tie up to. Nice restaurant on site.
Awesome marina with amazing customer service. They attended to all our needs, especially given that the first mate has a foot injury (they brought us steps to get off the boat instead of our ladder). They have a courtesy car that we used to drive around Beaufort and get groceries. There's a tiki bar and restaurant on site (closed Sunday and Mondays). The place is very well maintained. A definite 5 star! Thank you!!!
We were looking for a secure marina as we were looking to leave the boat for a few days. This marina is safe and secure and we felt comfortable leaving the boat. Draw backs are: a long walk to shore, nothing much around (you'll definitely need a car), and it's not protected from waves and wakes and is kinda noisy! BUT, the staff is VERY nice and professional. 3 uniformed staff met us at the slip to help us with the lines (it was very windy when we arrived). They gave us a ride to a rental car agency (less than 3 miles away) and a couple of golf cart rides to the parking lot :-).
Very nice and protected marina. Great, friendly staff. Many restaurants and shops around the marina with additional shops (grocery store, etc) nearby (easy bike ride). We didn't use the showers or bathrooms, but free laundry was a welcomed plus! The liveaboard next to us said they have been there for 2+ years and love it.
We stayed there for one night only. I have a broken foot and walking (slowly) with a walking shoe. They were great in accommodating me by moving us to a slip close to the gate so I wouldn't have to walk too far. Great service. There are also many restaurants nearby.
Great marina. Came for 2 days, stayed a week. Amazing staff. Great amenities. Cool island to explore by bike or golf cart. We will be back!
The staff is absolutely the best. The floating docks were in good shape and the width worked for our boat. They have water and free laundry facility that's not listed on Dockwa. It's a quiet marina and short Uber ride to the sponge docks where the restaurants and shops are. Unfortunately, many boaters were not honoring the no wake zone and we were being waked quite often! Internet only worked in the bath house for us :-)
Great location & great staff. Convenient to restaurants and Clearwater Beach. You can ask for a code for parking for a discounted rate. I believe there's free laundry, but we didn't need to do laundry! Be prepared for boat traffic from touring cruises.
Very friendly and accommodating staff. It's a happening marina in a boardwalk atmosphere, not your typical marina with restrooms and laundry facilities. Lots to do and see and yes, lots of people. We were outside the Margaretville restaurant (convenient eating spot). The view from the back of the boat was amazing. We watched beautiful sunsets, dolphins swimming and pelicans flying by. This was not a typical stop for us, but we enjoyed our stay.
