    WWG seems to have their review of this anchorage - Town Creek - confused with Taylor Creek, which is on the other side of the town. We didn't actually anchor here but were at the westernmost t-head at Homer Smith Marina for a week for repairs. I can see 10 boats anchored on the west side of the bridge and 3 boats anchored on the east side of the bridge. So there is definitely room for more than 3 - 4 boats. The Maritime Museum is on the other side of town, near Taylor Creek. It is busy and industrial and kind of ugly here, not somewhere I personally would want to anchor for more than overnight.

      Thanks for the review and for using Waterway Guide.

      We will have a representative visit this site and revise the description as needed. Regarding the Maritime Museum, the facility just north of the US70 Bridge is the museum Gallants Channel Annex.
