Nice marina in a busy tourist town. Washrooms adequate, although could use better ventilation, very steamy after someone has showered. Most transients are put on the inside of the breakwater wall, not gated, so there will be foot traffic around, but no security issues for us. Easy walk to shopping for clothes and souvenirs, Piggly Wiggly also walkable for groceries. Live music in a beer garden close by, but quiet after 10:00pm. One washer one dryer for laundry, no folding table, but $2 each per load (2023). Lots of loaner bicycles. Try the Swedish pancakes at Al Johnson's for breakfast, get there early if you don't want a wait.

Nice marina with stout breakwater in the middle of a busy tourist town with lots to do.
Docks are good with power and water. Dock hands were only adequate. No dock security Lots of foot/fishing traffic on docks, but no issues. Shore facilities are clean. Short walk to dining/shopping with lots of choices. A minor hike to groceries/hardware. 1 mile to nice dog park. We would stay here again

Great docks and staff. The location is second to none. Easy walking distance to many good restaurants and shops. Breakwater is excellent.

Paid over $84 for one night at a dock. I have never paid this much for a dock, in Wisconsin. The dock was clean but NOT SECURED by fencing. I was woken up at 1 in the morning by a group of partying teenagers just outside my boat. Security at this marina is non-existent. There is no mass transit in this whole town and the only driving services around were not available. The local restaurants were VERY expensive for average quality meals. Sister Bay is a port I will NOT be returning to.

Nice marina. Docks in good shape. There are no gates to slips and public can and does walk right up to your boat. The break water where we were slipped is a popular public fishing spot. They will also fish in your slip. Not a problem for us, but be aware of lack of security. Staff well trained and friendly. Pumpouts are done in-slip via portable cart. Showers are adequate.

It's hard to beat the convenience of this marina's location, arguably in the middle of Door County's most popular vacation destination. It seems all the staff are well-trained in the importance of good customer service. Most notable are the secure, clean shower and bathroom facilities, the well-maintained docks and finger piers, the laundry room, and free loaner bikes. Provisioning the galley or the engine room is easily accomplished while in Sister Bay and there are numerous nearby restaurants to satiate almost every palate!
