Easy to book by phone, and they guided us in and met us at the slip. Older, floating docks, with water and electric. Quiet and calm spot—a welcome escape after a choppy afternoon on the Hudson. Good restaurant on site and clean bathrooms and showers. Convenience store close by, and a ten minute walk into town. We enjoyed our stay and would return.

I call them by cellphone as I arrive in the creek and they direct me at the crane dock directly. They let me and hour and after they where there putting my mast back up. They use and old school crane. Not the most safe but they did the job very well and they take time to do it well. They even let me at the crane dock to tension my rigging line. They give us a nice place right next to the pool, laundry (2$ wash, 2$ dry) and shower. Nice quiet place and nice people to work with

I don't often write a review, but I must publicly thank Sean, JR, Juan and the team at Hop O Nose Marina for proving a wonderful experience in re-stepping our mast. They were highly knowledgeable, efficient, and a pleasure to work with. The team helped us in so many ways beyond the normal stepping process. I would definitely use them again for stepping services.

I cannot stress how important it is to fully research your marina before entrusting your boat to them. Hop O Nose are well below standard when it comes to service, safety and customer care. Our mast was to be stepped up by them in September 2019 and nine months later we are still working with our insurance company through the effects of the damage they caused when they dropped the mast from 30 feet in the air straight onto our new 50 foot boat. Their practices are outdated and in my opinion dangerous. We are lucky that no-one was killed that day. I have seen other similar posts elsewhere about other damages caused by their work and I would not recommend anyone to use their services.
