We tried for 2 days to get a dock reservation. the lady insisted it could not be done without a DOCKWA account (it can, we got one 9 miles up the ICW at Morningstar) and the second day she suggested I anchor, and for a $20 fee we could dock the dinghy. I asked How is it that you can take $20 without a dockwa account, but not $200 to dock the entire boat? She hung up on me. Terrible customer service skills! read more

We discovered this gem after we left Cumberland Island. We have stayed at a different local marina and decided to try someplace new. This marina is very small, very quiet and the staff is constantly working. The park-like setting is beautiful! The pool and hot tub are such a great addition! The two washers and two dryers are quite reasonably priced and usually available. There is a restaurant on site that serves quite good food. The only drawback is the 3 shower rooms-which are less than stellar. However one is under construction so I am guessing they are updating them one at a time. This marina is a welcome oasis. read more

I fueled up here after getting towed in from sea... ran out of diesel. Looked like a really nice marina- would love to stay there on my way back north. Thank you for the great service. read more

Joke of a marina. Dock hands caused extensive damage to my boat and owner/manager refuses to acknowledge or even call me back. This place has gotten progressively worse and is now a joke. Avoid if you can. read more

I found a boat I liked on boattrader.com. After conversing with the salesman, we agreed to meet where the boat was kept which was the Jekyll Island Marina. The boat was kept in the high and dry on site. Upon arriving I saw the boat being worked on by the mechanic I went over asked him a couple questions about the boat, and he was very nice and answered them much to approval about the engines condition. I then walked away and didn't want to hover. I then I saw a couple of the Marina dock hands and I had a brief conversation with them asked them if I should move my truck if everything goes right with the boat so I can get the trailer in position to load the boat. Again, a nice conversation and they seemed to be very nice guys. The salesman shows up we walk through the marina and upon getting to the other side of the marina the manager comes over and just rips into him. incredibly rude especially in front of me who's there just to buy a boat. Not professional at all and was upset about what supposedly what the salesman did. All he did was try get a time for the boat be ready and dropped in the water by the forklift like I assuming they do for boat sales out of the marina. Well, after the boat salesman got blasted we walked over to an open area and were just conversing quietly waiting for the mechanic to finish and waiting for the boat to be dropped in the water. Then 10 minutes later outcomes the owner with a total attitude. Again, I am just there to buy a boat and I am getting ripped again. Horrible attitude horrible disposition I walked away and went to the bar since I didn't know there was a bar there, but I wanted to get away from him. I had a beer and patiently waited for the boat to be dropped in the water. About 20 minutes later the boat salesman called me and informed me to come out to the dock for the sea trial. When I got out there, he informed me that the marina owner would not lift the boat onto my trailer if I purchased it. After all this I purchased the boat and put the boat on the trailer at the adjacent boat ramp. All of this was probably the least professional business I have ever seen in my life. I was cordial when I got there I was simply waiting as I was instructed to do. Both the "Karen" manager and the owner laid into the salesman and the owner laid into me also. If this place was burning, I wouldn't piss on it to put out the fire. That guy that sold the boat was there in the high and dry for years I was told. And that's the way the ownership assists him to sell the boat. Total @ssholes! read more

We loved it here! The deck hands were fantastic. They were so so sweet and so helpful. There's a little current and they did a great job helping us dock. They knew exactly how to direct us and helped tie our lines. The pool was super clean and refreshing. The facilities are nice as well. They offer a courtesy golf carts and bikes for marina guests. read more

A great experience at this little marina. We called and told them we were coming in late and they said no problem, just tie up and plug-in. Next morning we met Terri. She was super friendly and tanked us up. We got free coffee to boot. Nice clean showers and bathrooms and even a pool and hot tub! Overall a great experience and we will definitely stop back again! read more

Hidden gem! My husband and I took our motorboat with bikes onboard down the ICW from Savannah for a little fresh air getaway during Covid. We were so impressed with the Jekyll Island Harbor Marina, which made our little adventure even possible. The Marina is small, but provides full services, including courtesy bikes and courtesy golf carts, along with a pool/hot tub, and nice restaurant. It is clean, nicely maintained, and well suited for this special island. Zack. the owner, met us at the dock and, unsolicited, loaded our luggage into his oversized golf cart to transport us to the Jekyll Island Club Resort where we were staying. The morning we were leaving, we called to have our tank filled and again, they offered, unsolicited, to come pick us up. We've sailed all over the world and we were so impressed with the level of service this small Marina provides. Most importantly, it allows access to a truly unique and magical place. If you don't know the history of Jekyll Island, it became famous as a private winter playground for the wealthy barons of the Gilded Age. Some of the "cottages" of club members are still standing, along with the original club hotel. The island is now owned and managed by the state of Georgia, which has done a fabulous job at preserving the historic and natural features of the island. One of the highlights is a paved bike path that circles the perimeter of the island and takes you along beautiful beaches and a natural causeway. Benches along the way are perfect for spectacular sunrises or sunsets. This is truly a special island and if you love a combination of nature and history, it's a "must visit" for ICW cruisers! read more

Small Marina, but totally worth a stay here due to the amazing staff. Everyone we encountered was super kind and helpful... so many marinas we've been to have staff that are basically fine, although typically a little indifferent. Not here! Every staff member was sincere and pleasant in every interaction, seemed to go out of their way to offer help or just chat! The floating docks were well kept, no issues accommodating our 39' Mainship Trawler. There were clean showers and other facilities, plus pool and hot tub. Power and water on the dock was plentiful with no issues. We explored the island using free bikes provided by the Marina...what a pleasant surprise so we didn't have to haul our folding bikes off our boat! There was also a restaurant on site, but I can't comment on that specifically since we did not eat there. Highly recommend. We will definitely be back when in the area! read more

We stayed here a few nights on our way north in August 2018 as a squall was going to stop us from making it all the way to our St. Simons anchorage and I am glad we did! Daily: $2.25/foot/night Weekly: $11.00/foot/night It had concrete floating docks with room for about a dozen boats on the outside with enough depth for our 4' draft catamaran, inside looked very shallow. Marina had restrooms, showers and small laundry room ($5 for as many loads as you want to wash). The restaurant was also good. It also had a great pool and hot tub, though because they were in the shade we used the hot tub more than the pool. The best part of this marina besides the friendly staff and cheap/freeish laundry is the courtesy bikes and golf carts! Yes, courtesy golf cart!! These are both made exploring Jekyll Island so much fun! We loaded up a cooler and went out to explore via golf cart(1.5 hour limit) and then we went back out the next day by bike(no time limit). We will definitely be back! read more
