Great service!

We had great help from dock guys.

Easy access to the transient dock. Very calm and quiet. Nice showers and laundry.

We could not get on their WiFi. Another note would be for the dock crew to know the depth of the water. It is helpful to know if it is going to be enough for your boat’s draft. The restaurant at the marina is very nice to have and the staff were very friendly and attentive. We would stay again.

Love the new dock flooring! Wish they had internet for people renting a dock space.

Joey was very informative and willing to offer his assistance

We really enjoy staying at Pettibone, but our last visit was marred by common issues that seemingly has no fix. Upon arrival our slip was occupied by another large cruiser. Apparently we were both assigned this large slip, but we would not fit. Other transient slips for cruisers were occupied by day boats who were visiting the restaurant … tied off in front of the large “ reserved for over night guests only “ signs. We found the only empty transient slip and tied off. After talking with marina, we were told we could tie off on the dock with large boat ( not long enough for us both ) or we had to move to another slip as someone else had a reservation for the slip we were in. Too top it off, our dual 30 amp service kept tripping breakers and we could only run one half of our electrical service. It was a pretty frustrating experience.

Pros; reasonable rate, easy side tie at end of each dock, very quiet, protected, trains in distance only, extensive walking along Pettibone Park, adjacent restaurant but closed unexpectedly. Numerous Dumpsters and satellite toilets along the bank. Cons; no view of the river, end dock B tad rough, wood, loose bumpers, loose small cleats, others are updated with maintenance free. No bubblers so some algae especially further in, although not pea soup in late August.

Beautiful. Well maintained. Easy access. Great drinks. Great food. Pettibone was the best stay we had on our recent boat trip. We will be back!

Quiet. Good dinner and brunch at the restaurant

Only thing that would be nice is if there was WiFi available in the Marina

Nice marina with great,friendly staff and nice bar / restaurant .

Perfect! Young man at gas stock was awesome.
