    Facedock is an easy overnight stopping place, but marina is not close to town. Dockhands were ready and friendly! Could not do pump-out due to low tide.

    A long walk or a short bike ride (4 miles) south of Beaufort Long face dock for transients. Easy in and out, but exposed and there is a strong current when the tide is running. Good restaurant (Maker 244) on premises. Slow WiFi. Long pier over the marsh to get to the restrooms with showers which were clean and functional.

    After hailing the marina we watched the Safe Harbour red shirted dock hands heading down the long dock to greet us and assist with docking. A local told us the primary dock is 1/4 mile long. The service and hospitality was top notch. There is a nice store and restaurant onsite. At the end of the gangplank there were steps on the right leading down to a grassy area to let the dogs off leash. We experienced a little rocking on the face dock from passing boats.
    We provisioned at the Piggly Wiggly just a .7 mile walk with a local seafood stand and liquor store in route.

    Michelle and her staff are some of the best along the ICW. Very friendly and knowledgeable. During their rounds, saw one of the dock hands adjusting a fender on a boat - you don't see that extra care too often.

    Michelle was very courteous and friendly and when I told her I was single handing, she offered to have crew come down to help me land on their fuel dock. Ship's store and fuel dock gentlemen were equally welcoming. I was awaiting opening of the nearby Lady's Island swing bridge and they were kind enough to allow me to stay tied up at the fuel dock until I need to go. A little gem.

    Great place. Staff very friendly with courtesy car. West marine and grocery store short drive away. Will stop here anytime I'm in the area.

    We fell welcome rapidely, eventhough we arrive without much of a warning with Boat US. The staff is cool & efficient, the place clean and well configured, with an non-expensive boat shop. We stayed there a week (for mecanic parts), and much enjoy it.

    • The gumbo served at the Back Porch Grill on site is excellent.

    Michelle was great and so was deck hand! First class marina, highly recommend! Clean showers, restaurant, loaner car, short walk to great Mexican restaurant (Agave's). Improvements are underway.

    Very welcoming and friendly staff. They aim to make your stay as perfect as possible. Facilities are good. There is a courtesy car to get to places that aren't within walking distance. The face dock is bit tired but serviceable and is slated for upgrading soon.
