Lyman-Morse Camden is a full-service marina and boatyard in the beautiful Penobscot Bay town of Camden, Maine. This year, our shoreside landscape will look much different thanks to our newly reconstructed Lyman-Morse marina complex. We are very excited for you to experience these new facilities and enjoy the variety of activities available in our area guaranteed to suit all tastes! In addition to spectacular boating, you will find great hiking, biking, terrific restaurants, as well as galleries and museums.
Awesome stay in Camden to start the season. Nancy and Charlie and the entire staff were great, and we absolutely loved spending a few nights in their shoreside “crew quarters” guest rooms - amazing location and brand new facilities, really top notch! Can’t get much better for an early-season cruise, we’ll definitely be back!
My experience at Lyman-Morse was nothing short of spectacular. The entire team of dockside staff went above and beyond to accommodate me, look out for me, and make my stay wonderful. This team embodies the reason sailing on the Coast of Maine is so special.
Professional and friendly staff. Great floating docks with reliable shore power. Nice location.
We love this facility. From what we can tell mostly women ran💪👏, clean, safe and convenient to downtown. The warf is lovely and welcomi⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
New facility is set up nicely. Staff was professional and acomodating. Camden is a must see Windjamming jewel.
Fantastic marina. Great facilities and amazing dock service.
The staff at Lyman Morse in Camden are great and the facilities are first class. Unfortunately, unless you’re in the inner harbor, the roll is terribly uncomfortable. And $7 per foot for a dock space is ridiculous.
Lyman-Morse is a wonderful marina! We stayed on a ball for three nights. The facilities (bathrooms, showers, laundry) are some of the nicest I've seen in a marina. They have a large dinghy dock, so we never had trouble tying up our dinghy to go into town.
The courtesy and friendliness of staff at this marina is very special. Camden is a great place to visit, only enhanced by this wonderful marina. You won’t be disappointed! Came back for another stay and Cynthia and her crew were absolutely fabulous, nothing was a bother and the facilities leave no room for improvement. Another wonderful stay, all because of extremely friendly and professional staff.
All really good no problems at all nice restaurants on the dock excellent.
Very nice facilities and very nice staff in the dock house and on the docks.
Beautiful harbor, close proximity to shops, new first-rate facilities, and helpful, friendly staff. Only (minor) gripe: using their machines to do laundry is expensive and I wish they’d at least make it easier by switching to the ShinePay app.
Excellent! Terrific Staff. Great launch service. Loved Camden!
Five Stars every year and it keeps getting better. The renovations look great and the restaurants are excellent. Best thing though are the people that work there.
LM staff are very good, we mechanical problems coming in and they responded with a protection launch. Facilities will be great once they are open but look great. The outer harbor moorings are a little rolly due to ocean exposure. Boat is always sideways to the ocean swell. Suggest inner moorings Overall a good stay beautiful harbor We will be back
Loved everything about Camden & the service/ facilities at Lyman Morse. The staff was friendly, responsive & professional. Perfect.
Lyman Morse - great, helpful, do anything for you staff. Very friendly. Facilities excellent.
Great facilities, and a very accommodating and friendly staff.
Great! Love this Marina. Facilities, staff and location to town make it a good stay, anytime.
L-M rocks. The new facilities are stellar. Love the rooftop bar, restaurant and distillery. And the bathrooms and laundry are clean and very nice. And Camden is such a wonderful place. Looking forward to the next visit.’
Great service, friendly people from the launch staff to your dock staff. A special thank you to Tasha for helping to locate a part. Good luck on the moving.
Beautiful facility being built in an idyllic harbor. Very friendly staff- we’d definitely return!
Wonderful location, very courteous staff. Charlie, Nancy, Celia, and all the others offer a warm welcome. Beautiful new building with laundry and modern shower facilities. However… if you plan on friends visiting, parking (even WAY out back in a dirt lot) is a whopping $25 per DAY! After staying here for most of July we took a friend cruising for four days and got that $100 extra fee as a “thank you”.
The new facilities are wonderful. The dock master, Nancy, and the rest of the crew were very helpful and welcoming for our visit.
The amenities at this marina are head and shoulders above anything previously encountered on the East Coast. Sets a new standard for marinas which hopefully will be followed by others. Bathrooms and showers at a level one would expect at a four or five star hotel.
Incredibly accommodating with friendly and knowledgeable staff. Their new facility is gorgeous and Camden is a beautiful town with lots to do.
So far the best marina we were in. Super friendly staff, well informed, and very helpful. The marina has some remodel going on. But the bathroom and the facilities are state of the art. In center of Camden. Easy access to town and well protected . We stayed on floating docs, very convenient and good for sleeping ;definitely on the list to revisit
Staff is wonderful, as always. New buildings are almost complete - new restrooms are open and luxurious, with new washers and driers. Restaurants will be open within weeks.
Great stay at LM, staff friendly and new facilities will be excellent.
Wonderful service, the views cannot be beat. Right in the heart of Camden!
Excellent, helpful staff. Perfect location for visiting Camden. They have temporary facilities because of a fire, so I can’t rate the amenities. I will be back!
Fast response to reservation request and great communication throughout our stay. Launch service and courtesy car are included with your mooring ball fee. I will stay with them anytime I am in Camden.
We stayed at Lyman-Morse 3 nights on a recent trip to Maine. (two nights on our first leg, and one night on our return). Charlie and the whole crew were so responsive and helpful and we had three comfortable nights in beautiful Camden. Despite the construction, they had everything we needed. It will be even better when the new facilities are ready. Thank you Lyman-Morse!!!
Friendly, helpful staff. Solid mooring tackle. Wonderful location.
Staff and crew were excellent as always. Facility is under construction so not up to their normal standards.
Good strong mooring painters, nice dingy dock, harbor is a bit rolly however
Courteous, convenient, professional. All was great, even under construction!
Great stay in a wonderful town, temp bath/showers are fine (nice actually), very helpful staff, diesel mechanic fixed our engine problem!
Camden is a cute little town. Lyman Morse is a nice stop over even though they are running with portable facilities until their renovations are complete. Nice to have the launch service to get you into the marina or town. Showers in the portable facilities are clean and adequate. Will look forward to returning next year.
The staff was friendly and professional, and very helpful. The Marina is in walking distance to the downtown and waterfalls.
Convenient, friendly, in beautiful Camden Harbor. Hope to be back.
Very friendly staff - marina facilities are currently rebuilt - but prime dock space, friendly staff and temporary bathroom/shower facilities worked well - always a highlight on our annual summer cruise.
The nicest crew of any marina we have stayed in, even while being among the busiest! They are staffed up, flexible, and accommodating. Even when just renting a mooring. Can’t wait to go back.
Friendly service. Very accommodating during renovations.
Great location, easy access to town. Very nice staff, ready to assist. Would definitely stay again.
From Dockmasters Nancy Rowe and Charlie Foote, Cecilia driving the launch, Harbormasters Steve and Sarah, and a variety of deckhands, our stay was lights out. Everyone was thoughtful, friendly, and kind. Honestly can’t wait to go back.
Thank you Nancy for directing us to our inner harbor float during late afternoon traffic. Facilities are great even with ongoing construction.
Well organized dock crew brought us to our reserved dock space with amenities readily accessible. Front row seat view of Camden harbor activity.
We had a great time. Staff was very helpful and accommodating.
Our favorite marina in Maine. The same knowledge and accommodating staff are there year after year. Looking forward to the new building.
Great location on the inner harbor floats. One night was a little rolly due to the direction of the swell outside the harbor, but the other 2 nights were calm. Be prepared to hear the 8 AM cannon fire from the yacht club close by if you are a late sleeper. Camden is a special town. Wonderful restaurants, shops and people.
Great marina - the staff were extremely helpful and met all of our needs. We went to the fuel dock before going to our mooring ball - got fuel, pumped out, and filled water tanks - all with help from a very friendly staff person. The use of the courtesy car was great - for provisioning and an errand to Hamilton Marine. The LM Ships Store was also helpful with a request we had. The launch service was great. Per previous reports, the recent fire caused them to not have shower facilities or laundry - but that was okay. Camden was a terrific place to explore. We need up staying another night. Also as previously reported, the mooring field / harbor was a bit rolly, but that is a nor something the marina can control. We will definitely come back here.
Very friendly and helpful staff. We were on a mooring and used our own dinghy but stopped for fuel, pump out, water and ice. Two dockhands plus other friendly folks about. Very good about masks. Professional.
Amazing mooring lines that were long and thick. Made us feel very comfortable on the mooring even though we are a 150,000 lb boat. We were able to attach the mooring line right to our cleat instead of needing to attach another line to lengthen it. Dinghy dock close by, although it always was very full we were able to get a spot. Easy trash and cardboard recycling. We had mail sent to them and easily picked it up even on a weekend. Very close to town, maybe a 5 minute walk and close to mount Battie for some hiking.
Loud construction for 2 whole days right next to the boat. A fire 2 months ago shut down the Captains lounge, laundry, nearby rest rooms, nearby showers, ships store, restaurant. All things considered don’t feel it was worth the price.
Everyone we met went out of their way to help us enjoy our stay. Great place and wonderful people.
Unfortunately Lyman Morse lost their showers & guest lounge to a fire recently. However this is still one of our favorite stops.
Staff are terrific, very friendly and helpful. Kim is great. Definitely come back.
Excellent stay at Wayfarer! The dock was well-managed at the busy time of arrival. The launch was courteous, and we were able to get a small part repaired while there!
Bad experience. Coming into harbor guy on channel 71 could not verbalize where our mooring bouy was located?? When we went to the marina office found out oh by the way we had a fire 2 weeks ago that destroyed our bathrooms, showers and laundry but you are welcome to our 2 portapoties! Walked to town = a mlle for dinner and called for water taxi back to their marina. No reply so walked to marina and took our dinghy back to the boat. Got a call back just as we boarded with excuses blaming us for not calling on channel 71. I don’t know about you but I do not take my VHF radio to shore or dinner. Avoid if you want descent service and honesty about their Services. Also put us at far end of mooring field with bad swells all night when they had lots of mooring space closer in where it was much quieter. They really didn’t give a damn if you were comfortable or had a good stay just whined about how bad this summer was with the fire and the virus. Worst hospitality on the ME coast so far!!
The doc staff was awesome, the availability of a loaner car for driving to the grocery for reprovisioning was exemplary. However, unfortunately there was a fire at the dockside restaurant and bar three weeks ago and the restaurant and bar will be closed for the rest of the season. Currently there are no onshore showers, restrooms, or laundry available
They went above and beyond to service my boat (VERY competent staff) and make my stay spectacular (including a loaner car for provisioning.) This is a great marina..
The Lyman-Morse folks did what they needed to and were cordial. No complaints. The harbor was rolly but that’s not their fault.
I always feel like the marina itself and the destination should have two separate ratings. In this case they’d both be 5 stars. Lyman-Morse provides a great place to stay in Camden. The inner harbor floats put you right in the middle of all the schooner activity as well as being close to downtown. The free launch service is great, though it stopped running at 3:30 PM after Labor Day. The heads showers and laundry room ashore are immaculate. The courtesy car made a trip to Hannaford’s for groceries very easy. Camden itself is a wonderful place to visit - in fact we extended our stay to enjoy more of it. There are lots of good restaurants (Marriner’s serves a great breakfast). The library is out of this world in terms of atmosphere and architecture - including the park and amphitheater giving great views of the harbor. We enjoyed the free walking tour on Friday afternoon. We also hiked/climbed to the summit of Mount Battie which provided unexcelled views of Penobscot Bay and the islands. We love Camden and will be back for another extended stay next year.
Phenomenal marina. Every dock hand I encountered was friendly and helpful. They even let me stay a little past check out because they weren’t overly busy and we were enjoying town. Great spot and hope to be back next summer!
Excellent.... the dock facilities were great and the Dock Hand Service was top notch!
Great mooring. Friendly service. Answered call on VHF 71 immediately. Free launch service. Wonderful stay.
Journey's end has great facilities and a really attentive staff. complimentary launch makes it easy to get right downtown
Always a great stay - excellent facilities - friendly staff- easy walk to town - restaurant right on dock Rhumb Line fun spot .
Absolutely incredible professional and friendly service. Beautiful location and very nice amenities - showers, laundry etc. Could not have been treated better!
The entire staff was friendly and helpful in every regard. The launch service is included in your morning fee and is both timely and again friendly. Highly recommend this marina
Friendly, helpful staff. Good restaurant and facilities. Launch service was reliable.
AWESOME place....Best in all of Maine....SOOOOO.....Please don't book it so there will be plenty of room for US next year!!!!
Top notch marina with an extremely friendly and helpful staff. I couldn’t have enjoyed it more!
We were on a mooring yet we were treated just as well as if we were spending much more money on a dock. They have a really nice gathering area with great patio furniture, outdoor fireplaces and a great view. The lounge area and restrooms were superb and they even supply you with great smelling shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. The water was hot and the water pressure was terrific. We got to use a courtesy vehicle to stock up on groceries at the nearby Hannafords and everyone was professional, kind, and friendly. And Camden is awesome!
One of the most beautiful harbors in Maine. The staff here is right on top of things, very professional and helpful in anyway they can be. I can't recommend them high enough.
Great location and great service by the marina staff. Charlie was of great help and always willing to assist with a smile. Highly recommended.
Great showers and facilities. Friendly and helpful dock hands and staff. Short walk to town on the other side of the harbor or the launch will take you over. We were on the dock face float, day-trip schooners and plenty of other boats passing by regularly keeps it interesting but don't expect privacy. It's a working boat yard too, so if you're expecting to sleep in, you might be woken by the travel lift starting up. Didn't worry us, we enjoyed watching the activities when we were on board. Very sheltered and quiet, in the inner harbor so makes for a good night's sleep.
