The best marina hands down! John Woltersdorf and his guys towed us back in to the marina right before closing time. John even helped us get back home when we were stranded without a vehicle. Thank you guys so much for the hospitality!

Been there two days in a row before they closed and they won’t sell me gas. They keep saying “they’re out”. I ran out of gas twice because I was counting on them being open, but they were closed or out of gas. You would think a marina would want to sell gas to boaters on holiday weekends. I must be an idiot, bone-head, smooth-brain to think something as delusional that a gas station would sell me gas. I mean i’m trying to give them my money, begging, foaming at the mouth to give them money for gas, but no. Guess they gotta close up early to go watch the newest hot hbo show or something.
