Very responsive and a great accessible slip! Dock master is always helpful!! The only issue there is the visitor parking. Since you are renting one of the owners slip, why would you not get a pass to park, if you are local and need to park a vehicle there to get to your boat. I know the condo association is in control, but it seems fair. Otherwise, it's a great place!

The customer service at this Marina is above and beyond thanks to Bethany the dock master. She is very accommodating and always has a big smile while attending to customers. The marina location is very convenient as well plus they have fuel in several locations down the pier. Definitely my favorite dock in the area!!

Dock slip location was great, and so was the communication. We did get sent back and forth for ice both days to the stores that sold ice on the dock. One store would tell us we had to go to the other, and that store would send us back to the first store. Seemed to be some miscommunication, but overall had a good stay as usual.

Great marina! Bethany on the dock had great energy! Some wakes and a pretty strong current on T dock but nothing that should scare anyone off. Laundry is $2.50/load for the washer. $2 for dryer. We had a couple of packages shipped here with no problem. And Instacart had no problems finding us. It's about a 10 minute Uber to the heart of the historic district.

Large Marina, good staff. A couple of restaurants near by. About a 10 minute walk. Not close to much else except hospitals. Busy roads and bridges on three sides. Lots of commercial charters leave from here. Facilities are nice, roomy showers good size bathrooms. Big walk from H dock where they put us. Parking for friends needs to be coordinated during business hours with HOA office. Not always there to assist with parking but staff was helpful docking our boat.

Dock and power were fine. It is a hike from the H pier to shore and the bathroom. Bathrooms were marginal. Only one shower worked. It was not cleaned daily.

Will look for other options next time we are in Charleston.

Location, location, location! Spent a week here and it was quiet, had wonderful marina staff - friendly, helpful, and communicative; and as we love to walk, this location was perfect. No place we wanted to go was more than a 30- to 45-minute walk through beautiful historic areas. Only reason not five stars is that the docks are older, amenities (bathrooms) are basic, and pump out was broken - but nothing concerning, plus secure gates at night. Close to Publix and lots of Charleston's best places - RiverDogs stadium, Forte Jazz Club, and tons of restaurants and bars. Already ready to come back!

Fireworks at the bridge on our final nite was a treat. Generally quiet at the marina. 2sets of laundry but 0.3miles from dock to shore. Seeing rat traps on the docks were concerning but never saw a critter. Neighbors were very friendly. Pump out was not working and neighboring marinas would NOT reciprocate with their mobile service. Gated but often chained OPEN. Walking to down town area was long enough to Uber majority of our stay at least one direction.

Stayed here for 8 nights was charged a night when we booked 2 weeks prior to our arrival. Upon arrival the remaining balance was paid. After we departed South our Credit Card was charged and additional $127.71. The office blamed a flaw in Dockwa system of charges. First time I ever experienced this with Dockwa. I think it's BS on Ashley Marinas end. WONT BE BACK HERE AGAIN!!! Besides the long walk down the Tdock the bathrooms weren't working nor was the pump out system. And only 1 washing machine was operable. Place went downhill since I stayed here last!!

I was really impressed with the security, but disappointed in my dock slip:( The other boat in our group was fine. In the future, I know to make sure that I confirm we have an entire slip. I was not even negotiating pricing, I didn't care. I wasn't looking for a bargain, I wanted my boat taken care of. Oh, we were given a credit, a whopping $11.50 each! That isn't what we wanted or was even asking for. For convenience and safety it was awesome, but I now know what questions to be sure and ask when booking because in the beginning I was led to believe I had a slip for "each boat".

Marina Response:
Carter Family- We appreciate the kind words as safety and convenience is our number one priority. Just a reminder that marinas are able to book according to demand (busy holidays) as long as it is safe and convenient for boat transients and guests. During your next stay, please don't hesitate to utilize our seasoned dockhands to assist with getting in and out during business hours. If you are ever not sure on docking and launching within the marina, we are always glad to help. We look forward to you staying with us again soon!

I was at this marina for three nights. It needs a makeover and needs to set minimum expectations for the boats who use it. There were a lot of boats with decks covered with junk, boats that clearly are never moved from the docks and boats so dirty on the outside that the inside must be a health hazard. Every cement piling was covered with chipped and peeling paint. Slips are not clearly numbered. With numerous marinas in Charleston, I will be trying somewhere else on my next trip through.

Location is really the primary strength of this marina. It did allow us to explore Charleston by bicycle very well, and that was what we wanted to do. There is also a new Publix (grocery) that is within pretty easy walking distance. The docks were floating, but just in OK condition. The showers were messy enough we chose not to use them and we are NOT that picky. The internet was hit or miss. We had the necessities (power, water, and a dock) in a good location for Charleston, but I would say that was about it. The dock workers were nice and considerate, which is always appreciated. The marina just needs some updating/attention. Bike racks were overloaded with old, rusty relics with flat tires. I would stay there again, but just expect the basic essentials. The location makes it worth it.

We told the Dockmaster we. We're inexperienced with currents when he gave us instructions for coming into the Marina and had advised there were strong currents. He proceeded to direct us to a slip and sent a young man to the dock to meet us. The current grabbed us and pushed us into two other boats causing damage to our boat. I begged the dockhand to help us or to find someone who could and he responded there wasn't anyone who could help. Apparently, he was only there, waiting to catch a line. Two. Others came over and advised us to stop and wait for slack tide and then move the boat. We hired a resident boater to move our boat to a face dock. Hmm. If a face dock had been offered in the beginning this whole thing would have been avoided! Later heard this Marina has a reputation of being called "Crash"! The resident boater said he helps others 2-3 times a week who have the same experience. Good to know--too late!

Marina Response:
We’re sorry the marina did not meet your expectations. As you explained, we try to advise all arriving vessels of the present conditions of the river. It is no secret that the Ashley River and Charleston Harbor are capable of having strong currents, and it sounds as if the marina did its job in advising appropriately. We try our best to assign slips based on the conditions to make it as easy as possible for vessels, but sometimes space is limited. We rely on the vessel’s captain to communicate any hesitations when giving slip locations. We utilize our facedock for larger vessels that cannot fit into slips. Depending on the vessel size and duration of their stay, a facedock assignment is rarely offered.
