Cricket Cove Marina is one of the Southeast’s finest marinas. Conveniently located adjacent to the Intracoastal Waterway at Mile Marker 345, Cricket Cove is the closest marina in the Myrtle Beach area to the Little River Inlet.
Situated in the quaint fishing village of Little River, SC, Cricket Cove Marina features high-quality concrete floating docks. Amenities include an easily accessible fuel dock, a Ship’s Store containing lubes, oils, bagged ice and bait and clean restrooms. There is also a great restaurant onsite that boasts magnificent waterway and marsh views.
Cricket Cove Marina is well maintained and convenient. The staff is friendly, helpful and responsive. We always enjoy docking at Cricket Cove!

NoReportWas disappointed the restaurant and laundry facilities were closed. We were unable to get to fuel and pump out because of our draft. Marina is shallow.
Thank you for your feedback and for staying with us. We’re sorry to hear you were unable to access the fuel and pump-out facilities. Due to the ongoing drought conditions in South Carolina, combined with a recent king tide, water levels at the marina have been significantly lower than usual. This has made access particularly difficult for vessels with deeper drafts like yours. Even following a recent dredge, the unusually low water levels still present safety concerns and challenges for reaching the fuel dock. We truly appreciate your understanding during these unusual conditions and hope for the opportunity to welcome you back when water levels have normalized and access improves. Cricket Cove Marina

NoReportThe website is much nicer than the marina. They changed our docking instructions literally as we approached the pier. The restaurant is closed. The docking help was not great, and the marina is much more shallow than they said (we grounded - though as they say “it is really soft silt”).
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the website. We apologize for the last-minute change in docking instructions and for any inconvenience caused by the shallow waters as South Carolina is experiencing droughts and unusually low tides. Your experience with the docking help is certainly not up to our usual standards, and we’ll make sure to address these issues moving forward. We hope you’ll consider giving us another chance in the future.

NoReportDespite having a reservation and talking to the marina to determine what side to place the lines, there was no one there when we arrived at 2:30 PM! Again, we spoke to them at 1:30 PM. No where in any data does it state that they close at 2:00 PM. We never would have made that reservation. Very unprofessional.
We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you experienced. It’s clear that communication regarding our hours and your reservation fell short, and we deeply regret any frustration this caused. We always strive to provide clear and accurate information, and we are reviewing our processes to ensure this doesn’t happen again in the future. We understand your disappointment and appreciate you bringing this to our attention. If you’d like to discuss this further or give us another chance, please don’t hesitate to reach out directly to the General Manager. Thank you for your feedback.

NoReportThere was a bit if an issue with depth at the dock we were assigned (we draw 6ft and it was showing 6 at high tide). Harbour Master was very accommodating and moved us over to facedock.
Thank you for your feedback! We’re glad the Harbour Master could assist and find a better spot for you at the face dock. We appreciate your understanding and will work to ensure future assignments meet the needs of vessels with similar drafts. Safe travels and we hope to welcome you back soon!

NoReportOur profile is in Dockwa. They did not accommodate us for 50 amp, nor did they have a splitter. A fix was made, and we got power, but the Dockwa profile exists for a reason. Other than that, a nice marina.
Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re sorry to hear about the initial issue with your power needs. Your feedback is a helpful reminder for us to double-check Dockwa profiles to ensure accommodations are properly prepared. We're glad a solution was found and that you still enjoyed the marina overall. We appreciate your understanding and look forward to the opportunity to serve you even better in the future!

NoReportWe've stayed here for two extended stays, once for a month and again for two months. It has excellent bath/shower facilities, a super restaurant atop the marina (Snooky's), splendid marsh views and is quiet, especially out at the waterway end of the dock. We've not stayed in the busy season. There are quite a few good restaurants nearby as well. The dockhands and fueling folks are very helpful. A slight minus is that the marina closes pretty early (4pm) at the time of year we've been there (Oct-Nov) so it would pay to arrive early. There is even a marina cat, Miss Louise. Not fancy, but a very nice place to stay.
