So one word of caution. The bridge does not fully clear when open. With my big beam (25') I had about 2 feet to spare between the pilings of the bridge to one side and about 4 feet between my mast and bridge (looked allot closer. Not for the faint of heart.
But holding was great and was a comfortable stop for a couple nights.

Nice little spot. Don't be confused by depth sounder. Bottom is so silty your sounder will get confused. Substract 3 feet as you move in or you'll be sitting in drippy mud. Bridge tender during our trip in June was awesome. He opens on request and very cordial. Good restaurant and bar at the marina. Nice sight seeing on the river in your dingy. We'll go back.
