Fuel, pump-out, gang washrooms, individual showers. No boaters lounge. Well protected from most winds. Slips are arranged along the shore. Gazebo, tables, and BBQs on shore.

Watch for dredging buoys in the channel and go slow as the channel does silt up. Neither marina answered phone or VHF to provide information on the buoys when we were on our way in.

Dog friendly stop with a park right behind all of the slips. Small grocery store around the corner on 6th Street. Lots of cute shops, mini-put, art galleries.

Nice facility but very rolly at the docks in a sailboat if the waves are coming down the channel.

Had to call the dock master on the phone as he was not answering VHF 9, but other than that no problems with the marina. Like others on the southern end of Lake Michigan. This harbor is a cut into a small lake, so is well protected and has plenty of maneuvering room. The docks, restrooms and shores were fine.

The town has a small grocery store as well as a marine store.
