    No it's not a Marina but it is a decent stop. Probably room for 3 boats depending on when you get there and it's FCFS. They do have Power and water, 50a/250v, my boat is dual 30a's and my splitter was 50a/125v so they loaned me a 50a/250v for the night. 24hr bathroom & shower, although minimal, they do have it. The best part about this stop...most likely the cheapest fuel/Gas between Houston and East New Orleans, $2.35 gal

    This was a nice, easy stop, all previous comments are accurate. No fuel but if you need it, just 3.5 NM East, or in other words .5 miles east of Prospect bridge is Gauberts fuel & oil (gas & diesel) on the south bank. 985-876-1102, You can't miss it, large storage tank with their name on it, they're 24/7. If you're not Cajun, it's pronounced "go-bears"
