This is not an ideal place for a serious boater. The ramp is narrow and often blocked by debris…read moreand is almost always blocked by golf carts during boating season so that putting a boat in or taking it out is almost impossible. The parking lot is so jammed around the ramp that it makes it highly difficult to access the ramp. The slips supposedly offer water and electric but the electric to ours did not work. Worse yet, we pulled our boat out for repairs and came back to find a barge owned by the marina parked in our slip and we could not put our boat back in. All of this in spite of paying nearly $2,000 for an annual slip fee. Did not get even a half a year use as our slip was taken after paying upfront. There was no notification by the marina that they were confiscating our slip or to ask us if we were returning. Just had to pull our boat home and leave it during a beautiful late summer and fall. Just a highly disappointing experience.

We were in Ky enjoying a nice weekend at Lake Herrington with our family. We decided to rent a…read morepontoon to have an extra boat so that everyone can all hang out and still social distance themselves. Chimney Rock Marina is one of a few marinas in the area that offers pontoon rentals. The Marina is well kept and family run. The pontoon was a 21' Bentley, which was clean and a decent rental. We had a great afternoon on it. Overall great experience and nice memories made. I did want to mention that I was a bit taken back when we returned the pontoon keys. We came back to the Marina and immediately walked the kids back to the RV to change and clean up a bit. Part of the rental agreement is "no pets allowed " We are rule followers, and we locked up our dog in the RV all day. When my wife and I, and now our dog on a leash, walked back down to the Marina to drop off the keys and end the rental, the owner accused us of bringing the dog on the boat. It was very awkward and really turned me off. I encourage them to review their video ( cameras everywhere) to stand corrected. 1 star off.

I prefer this side of the lake anyway so you don't have a ton of options but for what you pay, improvements should be made. They redid the dock story last year after new ownership and that's about it. The steps to the parking lot are over grown with weeds and unusable, and the overnight boat slips are always filled with trash, nothing to tie up to, and half of the slips are unusable. I won't stop coming here, but this place has a lot of work to do.

best cabins and view. me and my family have been going here for the last 15 years and nothing but…read moregood things have come out of it. they recently went under new management and changed the name to lake cumberland marina and the renovated the dock and marina. still miss the old marina but it was a much needed improvement. the cabins were remodeled this year 2021 and the updated the couch added a coffee maker which is a keurig so make sure you bring k cups and added a few more new kitchen appliances. the bathroom had a new shower head and a new curtain. the bedrooms are moved around and better beds. the only down side is that the new couch does not fold out into a fold out bed which is what my family heavily relied on before the renovation. it is still a nice couch dont get me wrong but it is one less bed for one or two less people. you can call the marina and ask for an air mattress which was a pretty good size. the beach is still the same with the old swings and playground but it is still a lot of fun. we always go with our other family and rent the double decker pontoon boats with the slides and they never fail to make my family happy. the boats did get new motors which is nice so at least you can go a little faster than before but not as fast. overall it is always a great stay at this marina.

First off let me say, my experience with Danny and Marine Works has been amazing. I told Danny from…read moreday 1, if they treat me right and take care of me they'd have a customer for life. They've done exactly that and then some. I wholeheartedly recommend Marine Works and owner/master mechanic Danny for an overall quality experience. Before I bought a boat from them they did the maintenance and fixed anything i had wrong with my original boat. Danny would take the time to walk me through troubleshooting to make sure it wasn't something small before I drove an hour to bring my boat down there. He always shot me straight and was fair which I appreciated immensely. Fast forward a year and I bought my brand new boat from them. The process was seamless and they took care of everything for me. If I didn't like how something was done they made it right. Danny has always made me feel like a priority which is all you can ask for from a dealer.

Good customer service is not dead!!! It is alive and well at Marine Works!!! As I said before, I don't live there but if I did I would buy my boat from them! Thanks Janice and Tina!!!
