Marina Review for Safe Harbor Burnt Store
Reviewed by: Ruth Ridenhour , King George V, on Jan 26, 2021
Vessel Type: Power
LOA: 44'
Draft: 3.5'Rating: 5
They had us tie up along side the Cass Cay restaraunt. We were steps away from the laundry, showers and cafe. Not much in the way of privacy but very convenient and lots of activity to watch. They have live music several nights per week, a karaoke and a free “bar bingo” night. Music at the bar ends early and we were never bothered by it. The pool is heated and very nice. It is quite a distance from the marina but the staff has been more than happy to give us a golf cart ride there. It isn’t cheap to get into town (Uber was $20 one way) and the route to the closest store was not safe for a bike ride. Instacart is available here and the marina sells most necessities on site. We are 10 days into our two week stay and have enjoyed every minute of it.

Anchorage Review for Glover Bight
Reviewed by: Ruth Ridenhour, King George V, on Jan 20, 2021
Vessel Type: Power
LOA: 44'
Draft: 3.5'Overall Rating:5Holding:5Wind Protection:5Current Flow:5Wake Protection:5Scenic Beauty:5Ease of Shopping:3Shore Access:3Pet Friendly:3Cell Service:5WiFi:1We stayed here on 1/13/21. Very quiet night. There were two other boats. One looked unoccupied. It was in the middle of the anchorage. We checked the depth on the northeast side and set the anchor about 180 feet from shore expecting a North and then easterly wind that night. Probably room for 7-8 boats. We had zero wake, very little current and about 2 feet tide change in about 8 feet of water. We put out 60 feet of chain. The cove is past the marina, so there is no boat traffic thru or past the anchorage at all. Mangrove protection from N, E, and S. We had no reason to go ashore. Refer to other reviews about dinghy to marina. We could see the unsecure marina wifi on our devices but we were unable to connect. 4 bars with Verizon cellular. It's probably a 15-20 minute ride from the main channel. Shallow on south side. Chain came up clean. Mantus M1 came up full of mud and shells. I would definitely stay here again.
