    We draw 6 feet and our depth sounder is recently calibrated. We found 6.8 feet at the dock, at MLLW +.7 per Navionics, 35 feet from west end of dock (2nd boat in). Really enjoyed the town and restaurants.

    Not worth the money. No showers. Trailer bathrooms okay. No garbage bins. Dockside Electrical (an extra fee on dockwa in addition to $2 per foot dock fee) and dockside water were good.

    Maybe it's because we were there on a Tuesday in late September, but the experience was not good. I called the marina to see if we could get a slip. They had a message to use dockwa to make reservations. I did. On dockwa it said call them to get a slip on day coming in or use vhf channel 13. Since they don't answer the phone we radioed several times as we approached, with no response. We draw 6 feet and did not want to enter without confirming it was deep enough. A web search found the marine managers second marina and their personal phone numbers. No answer at second marina or first cell, but did get an answer on second cell. They were very helpful when we reached them. But, quite a challenge to reach that point. We were the only people in marina all night. We did have a nice dinner at a restaurant in the building next to the marina, and there was a nice park nearby, but beyond that, it was not a walkable friendly location to do anything else.
