I am going to be honest and share what we experienced! The Marina is absolutely amazing. The location couldn't be any better! We had a fantastic time and greatly appreciated everything in Nantucket. While out Yacht was there, it was damaged by the storm that came through. Not blaming the staff, however I specifically mentioned we were leaving, and another Captain would be coming in four days. After the storm, the employee said if we knew it was unattended we would have done more to assist. Lesson learned....... Great Marina, however make your intentions known!

It was very nice. We were welcomed dockside by a very nice gentleman that helped us tie up. Nice spot. The one complaint I have is that we paid peak season pricing on October 21st (a Monday). There was only one other boat docked there. I would think there would have at least been off season rates available. Just my two cents

We loved the Harborside Inn amenities and ambiance, very family oriented and casual. Staff was super friendly and helpful. The docks are not too crowded so the fact that there is only one shower is not a problem. Pool is fantastic! The one complaint I would have that for this amount of money, there should be electricity available on the docks. We had to rent a generator.

Location could not be better. Staff is a 10! Facility is awesome with use of pool and facilities. That being said-$15/ft with no power was a little surprise.

I just can't say enough about how great my stay was at Harborside. The location was awesome. Just steps away from downtown Edgartown. You step off the dock and you are right there in the middle of everything. You couldn't ask for more. The dockstaff at Harborside is outstanding. Ed, the Dockmaster, in particular was awesome. My only criticism (albeit minor) was that they do not offer electric service, and their WIFI signal was weak. Note that you can use your generator at the dock, and so the lack of electric service was a minor inconvenience. Overall I cannot say enough about how great this place is. I strongly recommend Harborside to others. Remember to reserve your dockspace as early in the season as possible. As you can expect, it fills up fast.

Exceptional - very accommodating & great dock staff!

Was this helpful?  Yes - NoReport

Many problems- 1) incredibly overpriced -my 28' sailboat was 375$/night 2)arrogant, capricious, mendacious, entitled, unprofessional, and condescending dock master - he exists in this little kingdom simply because he can. He canceled my reservation, made weeks in avance, simply because he took a dislike to me, leaving me with no backup. Dock space is at such a premium in Edgartown that dock masters are allowed to behave like this. Recommendation: Do NOT use. AVOID at all cost. Repeat: AVOID at all cost. Use the Harbormaster, whose staff are polite, gentlemanly/ladylike, professional and accommodating.

The Harborside dock is the best place to be on the entire island of Martha's Vineyard. Conveniently located in downtown Edgartown right on the harborfront. Team of Ed and Nick were terrific the week we were there over the 4th of July. Always helpful when you needed them. A big upside is you can use the Harborside pool when you dock there. Great people...great spot.

The tiny marina is in the best of edgartown location. The docking help were very nice and helpful. Unfortunately theres little info that tells you there is NO ELECTRICITY (even when you request it as part of reservation form). We needed to run the generators for several days.
