Cape Charles Town Docks

It was a great stay. The staff was awesome, the docks were in good shape, and the bathrooms were clean. I'm looking forward to coming back.

Harbormaster Paula and her crew have taken it up a notch with their friendliness and service.

Very nice floating docks, sweet little town.

The marina is great! - location, amenities, staff, cleanliness, appearance, etc. It was awesome learning that Paula is the new dockmaster...she's fantastic. She and her crew were extremely helpful and made our visit perfect! It was a very welcome change and we'll definitely be back.

Very good marina. Knowledgeable and helpful staff. Located near Cape Charles shops and restaurants including Shanty restaurant adjacent to Marina. A must stop for lower Chesapeake Bay cruising!

Cape Charles Town Docks is a great place to spend a few days! There's a deep, well-marked channel to get to the marina. And, very helpful staff were there to get us fueled up and then tied up in our slip. The restaurant at the marina (The Shanty) has a great seafood menu and friendly staff. The location is fantastic - It's so easy to walk into town to check out the shops, restaurants, bakeries, fishing pier, and beach. The docks and heads are well-kept and clean. We had a great time while we were there and we will be back!

Wow!! Paula (Dockmaster) and her team are really turning around the Cape Charles Town Docks!! Dockhands helped us tie up when we arrived, trash is collected from the inner ends of the piers, Paula surprised us with a delivery of the Eastern Shore Post and a packet of local coffee, when things slowed down a bit, the dockhands came around to see if we needed anything, new flags mark the ends of the various piers and the bath house, good pre-visit email communications and arrival info. Definitely a place for a return visit!! See you all, and that adorable puppy (Perry!), again soon. Lisa and Chip

Wow! What a great weekend here! Paula and her crew were waiting at our slip as we arrived and swiftly had us tied up beautifully. They couldn’t have been more attentive to our needs, checking on us often and even delivering the local paper as well as local coffee to us in the morning! The docks are well maintained, the bathhouse has been upgraded and is super clean and they have great merchandise in the office. We will be back for sure and if you haven’t been here this season, you need to come on down and experience the wonderful changes going on here! Thank you,Paula!

The Marina staff was on hand for arrival. They were very courteous and helpful. I would recommend this Marina without hesitation.

OUTSTANDING! We have been coming for a few years now and were so pleasantly surprised at all the improvements! The bathrooms in past years were not clean and not very desirable so I always showered on the boat. This time however, I decided to give them a try and OMG what a fantastic experience! Absolutely perfect! The dockmaster who met us at our slip to help with lines could not have been more helpful and pleasant as well as the staff who helped us get fuel. This marina deserves an applaud and looking forward to our return! THANK YOU! Chuck and Karen Koehler S/V MAX

Nice clean docks and facilities. Close to town. Very walkable. Check out the museum with a neat working display of the cities supplemental power source.

Paula was great. The young gentlemen who work for her did a terrific job and were very polite. Look forward to being back.

The harbormaster, Paula, was a great help. We will be back!

Homey, friendly, full service marina with helpful staff. Lovely townsite. Definitely recommend!

We are always happy to be at this marina. It fits all of our needs.

Nice floating slips.

It is off-season but staff were attentive & friendly. Checked on how we were doing & picked up our trash from boat - no having to carry it to trash cans/dumpster. Clean bathhouse.

Wonderful place to be so far!

Could not have been better!, stayed 3 nights and wish it could have been more. Dockhands & Staff were friendly, considerate and helpful. The restrooms/showers were always clean. Perfect location. Can't wait for the next visit.

Always nice to be there. Dock crew was very helpful

Just spent one night. Nice docks and good restaurant on site. Cute town with a good distillery for cold beverages.

Always great ! Very helpful dock hands. New breakwater wall

Slip assignment was too short and too narrow for our boat, 51’ Jeanneau sailboat. Dockhands did not work together well.

Very bad cell coverage and it was communicated that their wifi wasn't working well. That made rout planning inconivient. Showers had huge warning that they don't guarantee sanitation. Either they don't know how to clean heads and/or don't understand covid isn't transmitted by toilet seats. Ir their lawyer has scared them to put up signs for plausible deniability. Either way, it was nat a friendly feeling. Otherwise, all was nice. Good floating docks, nice resturant nearby.

As usual the service was great. The dock hands are very attentive and on point. The facilities were clean. Unfortunately the ships store was operating through a window due to C19, but they were able to get what we needed. Will be back at least one more time this summer and maybe a couple of times.

Nice town, great marina, and outstanding service.

It was alright. Close to town which is nice

We liked the marina and Charlie was a big help and worked us in on the last minute. Would have been a five star except we were a little disappointed about the cleanliness of the bathrooms and showers. This is probably as much to do with it being public access during the day. Short walk into town, if you are going there is a short path behind the restaurant instead of having to go around by the road.

Delightful marina with helpful, friendly staff. We don’t use the bathroom facilities so can’t speak to those. Terrific location within a 2-min stroll of the center of town. Such a charming town, even when just coming out of quarantine.

Great marina, great small town, great beach.

Great location for a quick trip to town. Dogs are allowed on the beach before 9am and after 9pm. Wonderful sunset views from the dock

Dock hands did a great job of getting us into and out of our slip in very windy conditions.

Floating docks. Lovely staff. Good food at low key restaurant cute town

Crazy over priced for eating at the Shanty but if you're staying all day or overnight it's fair.

Always fantastic. Large Floating docks. Great setvice, great price, Great food at the "bakery on mason" , "ambrosia", and hook@Harvey

Another great trip. Easy docking, great facilities, close to town. Always enjoy coming here.

Facilities are fading a little.

Excellent marina with fairly new, wide Floating docks with great electric pedestal for shore power. Bathrooms could use a little spruce up!

Great marina, glad I brought fenders because the docks were just that and not slips. I'll be back in August!!!

Great docks and facilities WiFi is week

Appreciated docking assistance as we arrived. Shanty restaurant on-site was great! The bathhouse is an A on the outside but just a C for the actual facilities.

Nice place on the bay. Expect to rocking though if the wind is coming out of SW or W. Good fuel prices. Great food at the restaurant. Short walk into town (main street). Friendly and helpful staff.

The Dockmaster made sure we were three of us together. Very clean marina, east walk to fun town, everyone friendly in a small town southern way.

Nice marina with floating docks. Great dock help, reasonable bathrooms and shower, and good dockside restaurant.

Top notch Marina and great staff. Stayed for two weeks and Spencer and his staff were awesome!! Will be heading back again soon!

Easy access. I didn't use the facilities offered, but it was very clean. The whole process was handled very efficiently due to the experience of the harbormaster and using Dockwa.

Dock master was super helpful when I had outboard engine trouble and called me back with advice that helped me fix it. Great place!

They advertise a pool and a laundry and they have neither. The marina that does have those perks (Oyster Farm) will not let you use them unless you stay at their marina. Otherwise the head and showers were large and clean. They have block ice! And the quaint little town is .25 mi away.

Staff very helpful, facility very clean and well maintained, only thing missing was laundry facility and I understand they are working on that. The town is very pleasant. Brown Dog ice cream has fabulous flavors, i liked Strawberry Rhubarb flavor. Shanty’s resteraunt next to Marina was bery good as was Kelly’s Irish pub

This marina is always lovely...from the condition of the docks to the people who stay there. It's so close to restaurants and so convenient. We always enjoy it.

Cape Charles Municipal Marina is a great place to stay for the night. THe on location restaurant, The Shanty, is the hot spot for Cape Charles. Great food and friendly atmosphere. Courteous Marina staff, cleas showers and rest rooms.

Great Stay. Very Helpful Harbor Staff. QUaint , fun town

Great staff and beautiful location

Docks are very nice. As are the facilities. Worked out well for us this time.

The Wave action at the dock rocked the boat all night. No one got to sleep. Sunday was blessed with a loud water pump going off all day and that was followed by a night of loud music from the restraunt. Contined by the restraunt employees seemingly playing the drums on the trash cans. The town gave little entertainment value. Skip going and save yourself the.money and get some sleep

We had a great stay at Cape Charles Town Harbor. The dock master emailed us our slip assignment a few days ahead. The marina immediately answered our hail on VHF16 and had a line handler meet us at the slip. The floating docks are in excellent condition. The restrooms and showers are relatively new, very clean and accessed by coded door locks. There are several restaurants in easy walking distance.

Nice touch calling me by my first name when I called on the VHF,

Great town, all the marina staff are wonderful, friendly and professional. Marina well maintained, will be back many times.

Shanty restaurant had great environment and food. Shower and bathroom facilities very clean. Docking and refueling was convenient, fellow sailors helpful and the evening quiet!

Easy access, deep water, clean bathrooms and showers, staff helpful and friendly, easy walk into town.

Great people, very helpful. Can't say enough good about them. They really helped us out. Easy access to the Bay and a wonderful town.
