Report Review


We enjoyed our stay at the Town of Bristol Marina. The staff were courteous and responsive and the new dock facilities were great. Our only complaint was that the shore power system on the new docks is unreliable. After pulling into our original assigned slip, we could not get the power to work and were told to move to another slip. The power connection at the second slip worked fine the first day and night, but tripped at about 11 the next morning and was not restored until 3 that afternoon. Normally, not having power for a few hours is not a big deal, but it was very hot and sleeping on a boat with no a/c would not have been fun. The staff did their best to restore power to our slip, but we were told that this is a chronic issue and is due to the temporary wiring currently in place for the marina. Although we thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Bristol, we are unlikely to return until the permanent shore power installation is complete.
