The people are fantastic! We are here during tropical storm Ian. Everyone is helpful and really looking out for the safety of everyone and their boats! The docks are nice new stationary docks, store is well stocked. Their internet is working well. Laundry needs some work. I wish the restaurant could be finished and open too. Overall, we feel safe and very satisfied riding out the storm here. Update July 2023- we stayed overnight here and again received a warm welcome and great service.

We had a fantastic experience here. Upon arrival we met a Navy veteran dockhand who was very impressive. I have never seen ropes thrown and tied so well. We needed our engines serviced and that was taken care of professionally (thank you Connor & master mechanic). Hanna was super nice and delivered me to shopping and back to the boat with my packages. We stayed during very strong winds and several dockhands came to check on us and make sure we were happy. When we left we needed fuel and pump out in the rain but all was done with a cheerful attitude. The team here is outstanding!

We are giving 5 stars for the most pleasant gentleman that helped us. I believe his name was Greg. Even though he was really busy he was kind & helpful.

The people are great! Very nice and knowledgeable. The docks are in need of major repair and scheduled for this summer. Laundry room was great and the ship store has all kinds of neat stuff including gift items, shirts, snacks, etc… Security gates at the entrance of the piers. All in all nice stop.

Thank you.

Very nice welcome by knowledgeable dockhand and funny and helpful office manager. We only stayed one night. The place is clean, well kept and the restaurant food (Belles) was excellent.

We grew to love the place but the initial reception could have been much better. There was nobody to help us into a skinny slip, no dockhands. Our neighbor did come out to help and after we were all tied up we were greeted by marina rep with information needed. \nThe showers at the Marriott were the best we have seen on the ICW. Laundry was also good- only 2 machines but nobody else used them. The pools are nice and Skippers restaurant was fun. We also enjoyed seeing the fishing boats come in and their catch. Nice resort atmosphere.

The dock-master Eddy was helpful and nice. Other than him, we did not enjoy this marina. They did have electric and water. No fuel, laundry, showers, or pump out (which are needed by transients). There were wakes throughout the night. Airplane noise. On a brighter note there are a lot of shopping and restaurants to choose from.

We received a nice welcome. As a transient we choose our slip stays based on amenities with the basics being fuel and pump out. There are so many boats there and not enough water to park them all. This meant no pump out and we chose to go elsewhere to purchase our fuel. We did stay the night but won’t go back.

This place is really nice- a bit expensive but worth it. Security was good. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the restaurant both nights, good food and met some really nice people. The laundry looks brand new, $5 per load and is well kept. Publix (grocery & liquor) is a nice walk with sidewalks and crosswalks but a couple of shady characters a long the way. Go in pairs. Overall was excellent and yes we will be back.

Had wonderful help when we arrived, Paul (dockmaster) was great with information. No fuel here was the only downside. Uber every where. Hurricane Patty’s restaurant has excellent food! We enjoyed!!

We stayed one night at Heritage, it was a good stop for trip down the ICW. We were able to get groceries delivered, no fuel, no pump out, but the showers and restrooms were great. Laundry is available. We were new to the fast currents so they asked a couple already there to assist us with ropes.

This was an overnight stop for us. We were greeted with two men ready to help as the currents can be ripping. They got us in safely, helped with ropes and a pump out. The marina has decent showers including an ADA bathroom and nice laundry.
