Anchored for the night during a short ICW transit in bad weather. Easy access to open ocean the next morning as we headed south. Tides will force a 180 degree swing but holding was excellent. No drag and pulled up mud in the morning. Watch for crab pots in the area. Made for a little more difficulty finding a spot to drop our anchor. Used the known anchorage location and directly in the middle of the creek. Our evening was very windy so, once the tide slacked, wind pointed our boat. Used approximately 125' of chain and had no issues with plenty of room to swing.

A peaceful, uncrowded anchorage in early December. Easy in and out from the ICW.

100% peaceful. No wake or waves. Enough water around the bend. Anchored on the exact Waterway Guide mark.

Quiet, marsh all around. Chain came up clean. Typical mud on anchor.
