Absolutely awesome marina! We spent 3 months there over the summer and will definitely be back! The staff is fantastic! Love the Saturday morning breakfasts and Saturday evening bands! The restrooms, laundry room, and captains lounge are very clean! I really can't say enough about this marina! Grocery and hardware stores across the street. West Marine a couple blocks away. Lots of shopping and restaurants all within walking distance. Safe during hurricane season. Beautiful boardwalk for miles. Decent neighborhood. I could go on, but you get the idea!

We had a wonderful visit to a top-rated facility. We were promptly greeted by Wayne and his crew and docked quickly and safely in their full fingered floating docks. Wayne then informed us of all the amenities of the facility as well as the surrounding area. Definitely a place to visit again. We were there for a Jeanneau club event hosted by one of the members.

This is a first class operation! Staff was knowledgeable and helpful during docking. The check-in process was handled right at our vessel with a welcome bag of valuable information about the marina. In addition, the facility is immaculately kept in offers little perks to just let you know you are a valued customer. Saturday night entertainment was also first class. The band was far beyond our expectations of being entertaining. The only downside to this location is the lack of a swimming pool which we understand is currently being addressed. We will definitely return to this Marina went in the area.

Marina Response:
Captain - Thank you and you are correct we are having our new floating pool and deck area built as we speak (the old pool was retired last year) and we are looking forward to a wonderful 2024 Boating Season and hope you will join us again! Wayne - Dockmaster

Very well maintained marina with great staff. Easy access to grocery stores, West Marine and local restaurants. The Aquarium was great. I specifically picked this marina because it had a pool and with two grandchildren in August it would have been a much needed release of energy. I had to give it 3 stars though because the pool originally at the marina was no longer there and a blow up pool was in its place. Had I known, we would have booked elsewhere.

Marina Response:
We do apologize for the inconvenience as a Mom myself, I totally understand your frustration and rating. Hopefully with our new pool and decking (being built now) you will give us another chance! Thank you! Anchorage Marina Staff

Terrific. I recommend the marina without reservation. We have a 38 foot sailboat. The dockhands were extremely helpful with our lines and explaining the layout. The facilities are modern and spotless and the location is terrific. There are groceries, hardware store and a West Marine in a 5 minute walk, good local restaurants and only a mile from the middle of Fells Point. Very dog friendly. Will stay again.

It was a great weekend as I have come to expect from Anchorage. There was a dockside Labor Day cookout including a live band. Unfortunately the marina pool is out of commission. So convenient to Safeway and restaurants. Canton is not as shi-shi as Inner Harbor or as touristy as Fells Point but that suits me better. Dockmaster Wayne Easton was super helpful as always. Ate at a very cute diner nearby called Sip & Bite. I will check out the restaurants in Canton Square next visit.

A perfect 1st stop on our Great Loop adventure. Thanks to everyone at Anchorage Marina.

Always a great stay at Anchorage Marina. Superb service by Dockmaster Wayne who runs an excellent crew. They are starting to replace the floating docks, which were beginning to show their age, and we were placed on one of the new ones with Ipe docks and new power risers. The unique floating pool is no longer present at the end of C-dock, but it was small and a little shabby, so no loss there. A small band provided entertainment for slip holders and transients on Saturday night! Easy walks to Fells Point and Canton for restaurants and shopping. A huge Safeway grocery across the street and a West Marine one block away make this our favorite Baltimore marina.

Staff is great! Knowledgeable, courteous, and helpful. Pier D, where we stayed, was recently renovated and it shows! Bath house is clean, but hot water was lacking during my wife's shower. May have been a rare thing, but prevents me giving 5 stars based on our experience.

Marina Response:

Anchorage Marina is a wonderful stop with a fantastic Harbormaster (Wayne). It has slips that have been sold to their local condominium owners. They rent to transient boaters at a relatively high rate ($2.50 per foot/day + $10/day for 30 amp power) that's well worth it. It has all the expected amenities (clean bathroom/showers, 3 sets of laundry machines, cruiser's lounge) and is within walking distance of Safeway, West Marine and many restaurants. You can also walk to the aquarium, museum, public library and many other interesting sites. The T-mobile cell coverage is strong (4 bars). The only negative is the internet doesn't work at the slip; you have to walk to the boaters lounge if you don't use your cell service.

Wayne the DM was a super nice guy, warmest welcome I have gotten when arriving to a marina in a long time. Love the floating docks and security gates. Docks are older...only 200Vac at the power pedestal. They have step-up transformers they can loan but we have our own so all was good. Loved the location and price for this marina. Easy 1 mile walk into downtown, Baltimore. Tons of things to see, do, and places to eat at. Supermarket right across the street could not be easier to re-provision. Take the free (weekdays) Harbor Connector water taxi to explore more. Loved BMI and several microbreweries in the area. Would definitely stop here again! IMO visit these places we did: Lee's Pint & Shell 4 dinner, Baltimore Museum of Industry, L.P. Steamers for Lunch, Diamond Back Brewery, Ministry of Beer, Safeway for groceries, Hull Street Blues Cafe to meet real locals & have a drink, and Top Of the World Observation deck for OMG views of the area on a clear day!

Anchorage has a great staff - Dockmaster Wayne Easton - is fabulous. Monthly fee for transient was reasonable. Nice lounge, laundry room, and bathrooms (though old) are clean. Easy walking distance to grocery store, restaurants, banks, etc. Plenty of areas to walk or ride bikes. Nice area to cook out, tables for eating outside, nice small pool. Three downsides: no good parking, no wifi, and though the docks are floating ones - the docks are old wood and need to be replaced. However, the advantages outpace the downsides and we'll return again.

We are finishing our last few days of a month stay at Anchorage Marina and couldn’t be more pleased. From awesome service by Wayne and his staff, to a great floating dock swimming pool, to a location in Baltimore that can’t be beat! Anchorage Marina is a truly friendly place with most of the marina slips owned by boat owners. We were welcomed as transients and offered lots of local tips. West Marine is a block away and offers huge Thursday discounts to anyone at the marina. Safeway is across the street as is a well stocked liquor store and Ace Hardware. Most major stores within walking distance and all the restaurants of Fells Point and Canton are nearby. For those with dogs, the marina always has free dog snacks out and dog parks are close by. The lounge is large and Uncrowded and mail/package delivery is easy. The docks are in excellent shape and electricity and water were great. Definitely recommend for a stay in Baltimore.

I've leased slips at Harborview, Hendersons Wharf and now at Anchorage. Anchorage is by far the most difficult management to deal with - very disorganized and difficult. If you can choose any other marina in Baltimore I'd recommend it.

This was our second visit of the season and it was wonderful. Two dock hands met us upon arrival at 1830, as well as the dockmaster Wayne. We were quickly in the slip and off to enjoy Canton and Fells Point. They host a small breakfast on Saturday, which started our day at the Fells Point Fun Fest off just right. The facilities just keep getting better with new floating docks and very secure pier access. The showers are good and the rest of the amenities are what you would need. Wayne and the staff will provide just the right level of help: enough when you need it but not overbearing when you don't. We left Sunday afternoon with a promise to return in the spring.

We loved our time here. The marine is clean and secure with key cards to access the docks and facilities. The dock master is superb and really went out of his way to make sure we got in, tied up and had all the information. The location is fantastic, right downtown in the heart of everything. Shopping abd restaurants are plentiful, the marina has a Thursday special with the West Marine within walking distance. They hold a free breakfast on Saturday mornings in the comfortable Captains lounge and a band out at the end of C dock next to the floating pool and barbeque area. All in all a very pleasent stay with the added bonus of meeting some very charming people. Thank you Anchorage and Wayne for a lovely stay.
