Great spot with easy access to town.
We had a wonderful time! Check-in was easy and location close to town. The facilities were very nice and clean. It was a restful and fun experience. Thank you!
Great casual spot! Nice folks at the marina. Accommodated us on the spur of the moment. Bikes were great to visit this quaint historical town.
We came to Oxford because we heard it was just the kind of place we like. We’d come again because of the amazing service at DiMillos Marina. We were met and assisted by competent staff and through our whole stay they helped us with directions and even in problem solving some land transportation issues. They truly went the extra mile. Oh, and the town was just as charming as we had heard. Everything within an easy walk from the Marina.
Showed up the Sunday Of labor day Weekend around two and the place was a ghost town. Nobody picked up the vhf call and the cell phone rang about twenty times before somebody picked it up. I reserved a slip with fifty amp power and they barely had thirty amp. The docks clearly haven't been improved since they took over the marina from crockett brothers. So we sacrificed the food in our frage, and the a c.... I would not stay here again. Oh, and it says they have a pool, but the pool is apparently closed.But you're welcome to sit next to it.
Great place, great location, friendly staff.Beautiful spot with short walk to everything in town
Great stay, marina staff was great. Easy walk to restaurants, store and most importantly the Oxford homemade ice cream.
Well maintained facility
Pool closed and no dockhands.
Starting with the positive. The staff were helpful and responsive. A few issue: 1. When asking about details, the staff pointed us to the confirmation email. There is a link to amenities, but it leads to a "404 page not found." If you arrive after the staff has departed, you'd be hard pressed to get the restrooms code. 2. No WiFi. 3. Pool was closed on a very hot 4th of July weekend.
DiMillo's Oxford was a great boating experience with an ample dock for our Catalina 42, a great pool, and clean, modern bath facilities. Use of the bicycles made exploring Oxford quite enjoyable.
We arrived on a Saturday afternoon and there was nobody available (by phone or VHF) to direct us to slip D-33 and the slip was not marked. Even after we pulled in to a vacant slip (not D-33), we still couldn’t find it. Texting a map of the marina would have been a big help in the absence of anyone being available to assist.
Small independent Marina. Very quiet, close walk to Oxford ice cream, park, convenience market and restaurant. We really liked the quiet setting.
Our 2 night stay turned out good. But we arrived on a Sunday afternoon. There was no staff on site to assist and the slip we were instructed to dock in via an off-site phone call was already occupied. Fortunately we found an alternative and with the help of 3 local boat owners, we're able to dock and hook up to services. An appreciated apology came the next morning from marina management. This working boat yard is not quite ready for transient traffic but is trying.
No information on bathroom/ shower facility location or combination. Reservation made with our loa and beam on Dockwa but we were shoehorned into a slip shorter a just wide enough to cautiously ease in (this in high wind). No office personnel available when we arrived (on a Saturday at 1530.
Nice Marina and staff
Nice facility, walking distance to town.
Great place. Staff and communications were super. Quiet location. Will stay there again.
Made arrangements on very short notice on a holiday weekend. Facilities were excellent and available. Very inexpensive to boot and short walk to restaurants and shops. Thanks for the hospitality. 39 North
Wonderful and very easy. Great location.
Location was great, marina was very nice.
Great stay. Oxford is one of our favorite places to visit
Just what was needed. Good communications in advance. Easy slip to access. Quiet location.
This was our first time docking at DiMillo's very clean and friendly! Close to town. The pool was very refreshing. We will definitely return to enjoy beautiful Oxford!
Pete was very helpful and responsive. Love the floating dock and the very short walk to the Scottish Highland Creamery in downtown Oxford.
Best kept secret in Oxford! Pete and crew are so accommodating. Small and quiet, close to town and a great pool. We will be back.
We enjoyed our stay. Great location in Oxford MD. They found a spot for our dinghy so that we could easily access for a ride.
Good location, nice bathroom, cool pool, got help docking, what more could you ask for!
Interesting little harbour. Easy access. Protected. Pete met as at the dock and help us complete the tie down electrical hook up etc. Spent time in the office informing us of places to eat, town layout etc. Spent some time in the pool Dinghy ride to diner. Nice stay
Pete and his team helped us dock and made our stay welcoming. The marina is a working boatyard so if you need any parts or service Sam can fix you up. The place is very historic and charming. It is not a resort marina but the facilities are clean and very nice. Oxford couldn’t be more inviting. Our favorite stop on the Great Loop so far!
Great communication and directions, we arrived after hours and had no problems finding our slip or difficulty using any of the amenities. We also liked the location because many of the places we wanted to go were walkable or easy to get to by bicycle.
Great marina that is very quiet and laid Back. The manger is a SUPER nice gentleman that met us at the dock upon arrival. Gave us his personal cell number incase we needed anything after hrs. Also supplied us with a few bags of ice free of charge. The pool was great, showers/heads very clean, a short walk or bike trip to town (marina had very nice bikes to use). Overall a great place, they really welcomed us in and made us feel right at home. Oxford is a wonderful little town, we will definitely be back for sure!!
Location Fine Info about the marina maps, bathroom codes etc great and nice to have in advance and gave us hope things were organized. IF you arrive on a Sunday - make sure you get a slip assignment before you arrive as there is no one at the marina to tell you where to dock. Wasted most of an hour trying to find someone via phone and VHF while circling outside the marina. Was suggested I had 50 alternative marinas if the lack of response on a Sunday was really an Issue by an employee on site at the office who did not respond to the VHF or phone we found once we tied up. T- Mobile Cell coverage ok No wifi Pump out a bit less than 5 ft at Low Tide ( I measured it) - they will bring a tank out to your boat if need be.
Great marina in the heart of Oxford - Pete and the team were super helpful - not just at the marina but also with local knowledge on waterways that might be too shallow for our draft. Clean restrooms, bikes for getting around and absolute silence overnight. Will definitely be coming back again.
Pete and everyone at DiMillo's was great. The marina is super convenient to everything in Oxford. Pool and facilities are nice. Will definitely be going back.
Peter was so kind and helpful! And the other boaters we met were, as well. Fun little pool and a beautiful town. We’ll be back!
Pretty good, we didn't get any assistance on our arrival. But it was easy to get there. Very basic marina not luxury but functional
Good stay, very helpful staff. Convenient to most everything in Oxford. We’ll stay there again.
Nice ad very convenient for walking around town.
Dockage was nice, Slip was easy to access. Electricity was a bit inconsistent.
Very quiet and peaceful. The Marina staff are professional and attentive.
The folks at DiMillo's Oxford are great. We were able to get two slips side by side which was very convenient. The location is ideal for exploring the town. The pool and heads were clean, and while the docks are a bit rustic, we were very comfortable and will return again soon.
The staff was wonderful, the whole experience was laid back an unpretentious. While the docks were not new, they were very usable and safe. Will definitely be back. The pool was clean and very refreshing, and the showers were also big and the water hot
This place has a lot of potential. We were wary about booking because we did not see any reviews. It looks like DeMillo took over a few weeks ago (from Hinckley) and has big plans to modernize. The location is excellent, in the heart of Oxford. The manager is super-helpful and personable. If you want something quiet and rustic, this place is good as is. We stayed one night this past weekend and only saw one other transient, and maybe 1-2 seasonal people. DeMillo is correct that a modernization is needed. The bathrooms and pool are good. The floating docks and power supplies need updating. If you want modern and busy, this is not the right place but if you want tranquil and basic, this is good as is and will only get better in the next couple of years.
