    Docks in good shape, decent washrooms and laundry areas, small boater lounge. Gated security. Town easily walkable with some shops and restaurants. Access to a nice bike path. No grocery close by. Good prices for fuel and pump out. Good place to stop on the Wisconsin side of Lake Michigan.

    Really nice marina. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Floating docks all in good repair. Docks have gated entry. Lots of nice restaurants in walking distance, some shopping. Cute town!
    Some construction happening close to the marina parking lot. Wifi good for email, posting a few pictures to internet. Wasn't strong enough to download a movie out at the dock. I look forward to returning!

    Stayed 3 nights in the inner harbor in August 2022.

    Pro: Good fixed docks (Inner harbor), power and water. Inner harbor is sheltered from all winds. Easy walk for all shopping and dining. Lowest cost diesel on the west side of thr lake when we were there. Great dock hands. Wonderful town for boaters.

    Con: Weak cellular signal (Verizon) in the inner harbor. Wifi is just OK. Restrooms/laundry are a bit of a hike from the inner harbor. No dock security in inner harbor.

    This is a place we will visit again.

    Great location in a neat town. Lots of restaurants and shops nearby. Also one of the best stops for fuel.

    Our favorite stop so far on the loop. Friendly efficient staff that handled lines, delivered packages and stopped by to make sure we were all set. At least 5 gas grills and several nice bathhouses. Great price on fuel. We stayed in the basin and really enjoyed the convenience to the shops and restaurants. The town has a lot to offer with great restaurants, fish store, meat store and Duluth is a block away. We hated to leave.

    Port Washington Marina is a very well run facility.

    Upon calling the marina 10 minutes out they offered to help. Marina staff were very accommodating.

    The grounds, docks and facilities are clean and in very good condition.

    WiFi was adequate.

    Many decent dining and retail establishments are within 1 to 2 blocks of the marina.

    This is the third time I've stayed at Port Washington Marina in the last two years a I'll be back!

    Port Washington offers more than just a safe place to tuck into when weather forces you off the lake. Within easy walking distance of the marina are a variety of restaurants, retail shops, historic sites and a grocery store. The fuel dock is easily accessible and the docks are in great shape. Bath house, laundry and lounge facility were clean and adequate. The only negative was the lack of customer service skills of the young, inexperienced staff.

    Great marina! Friendly, attentive staff, wide fairways, concrete surfaced floating docks and fingers, very nice bathrooms and showers, pump out at slip, very good diesel fuel prices. Small town with great restaurants and shops.
