One of the nicest marinas we have stayed at. Great staff, floating docks, close to downtown, the best bathrooms ever and free laundry.

Easy in and out. Huge breakwater. Staff super friendly. Close to lots of shops, restaurants and ice cream. Heard facilities were great, but we did not use.
Highly recommend.

This is one of the best marinas we have visited. Lots of friendly, helpful dock staff. Free electricity and laundry. The bathrooms and showers rate with the best we have seen. It is a pleasant walk to the outdoor pedestrian mall called Church Street Market where there are LOTS of options for shopping, eating and drinking. Walmart delivery is available for provisioning. This is a great stop!

Planned a visit here for 5 days to provision and get mail sent. The marina is wonderful. Clean, very nice restroom and shower facilities, free electric, free laundry, restaurant on site is very good. The staff makes this the best marina we have visited in the 8 years we have been travelling on our boat. At least two or three deck hands assist with docking and undocking. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. Everything here is 5 stars, but the staff is even higher

Buona Fortuna
called last minute for transient slip and staff very accommodating. When we arrived greeted by 3 very helpful dock hands who helped us tie up, connect power and get ice.
Great clean bath house with free washers and dryers. They are fully staffed and walk the docks checking lines periodically. Bad weather came in and they easily accommodated us for another night. They have a great little store, fuel, pump out, restaurant on site and many more within walking distance along with shopping and a great museum for kids.

Excellent marina and great city to explore. We came for one night and stayed 6! Dock staff friendly and attentive. Floating docks well maintained.. Bathrooms and laundry the best we've ever seen. Marina store carries beer,, wine and snacks.. Great restaurant on site overlooks the lake and mountains for spectacular sunsets.. Marina behind a long breakwater but boats will still rock with a strong south wind. City bus system easy to get around including the Shelburne museum which is a must do day trip. Church St - 5 block pedestrian mall about 6 blocks. Bike rentals nearby. Check for regular summer concerts in the park.

Nice folks, good gas dock but heads/showers are under construction and unavailable(8/18) and the docks (which are nice) really take a beating in a South wind. No Wifi. No laundry though there is a good laundromat just up Kings St. Close to downtown.
