Marina Review for Sandy Hook Bay Marina

We spent a week here while we waited for a decent weather window to proceed south. It was a wonderful upscale / resort type marina to be "stuck" in!
The Manager - Gloria and her staff were courteous, helpful and provided excellent service.
Floating docks are in very good shape. Power pedestals with 30 amp and 50 amp service. Bathrooms are clean, modern and spacious. Laundry is available. Upscale restaurant next door with great view of the Sandy Hook Bay and Happy Hour from 4 to 6. The only negative is the ferry terminal a few hundred yards away. When the ferry goes by it does rock the boats in the marina.

One of the nicest marinas we have stayed at. Great staff, floating docks, close to downtown, the best bathrooms ever and free laundry.

Floating docks, good wifi, clean bathrooms. Helpful friendly staff - Don & Gabriel.
The boatyard clutter detracts from the overall experience.

Tied up to the free wall. Water and power available. (2-30a for us.) However, no bathrooms were available.

Marina Review for Yacht Club Montreal

We were "stuck" in Montreal for 17 nights in late August/early September, 2024 due to the closure of the Chambly Canal for repairs. The Yacht Club Montreal was a wonderful place to be stuck!
Floating docks in excellent condition, helpful dock hands, clean, modern bathroom facilities and Manager - Debbie was awesome. Courteous and helpful. $2.95/ft with 15% discount for AGLCA members.
The location was perfect - right in Old Montreal. The only negative was the rocking from the tour boats during the day.
I highly recommend this marina.

Free Dock Review for Village of Baldwinsville Docks

Contrary to the info on Waterway Guide, the Village of Baldwinsville docks DO have power. There's a nominal fee and you pay by the honor system, dropping payment into a lockbox.

The marina area is grassy and shaded, and there's an information center with lovely gardens. Floating docks are sturdy and there is a newish looking ramp.

Restaurants are a stone's throw away. what a great find!!

  The Waterway Guide listing lists the power service available and the fee. Where did you view the listing that you did not see the info?
