No restaurants nearby but the Old Salt grocery store is well within walking distance, and has pretty much everything a visitor could need.

La Conner Marina is a great place for boaters and visitors…read more The marina features extensive covered moorage on 8 docks, two large guest docks, clean and comfortable restrooms, large laundry facility, two pumpout machines (one on each guest dock) and expensive outdoor/lawn/picnic space. Most of the slips feature finger piers on both sides of the boat, making this a very desirable location for covered moorage. As such, expect a long waitlist that could have you waiting for two or three years. Plenty of parking even when they host large events like the 4th of July celebration. Staff is friendly, courteous and very responsive to inquiries and issues. I haven't reviewed the RV park, as I haven't stayed there, but as a casual observer, the park is clean, reasonably lit without being too bright, close to the restrooms and laundry, and a short walk from town.

The first weekend was last summer, and the second one was this past weekend when we "glamped" there to once again meet up with friends who were docked at the marina for the weekend. The RV park is definitely no frills. The sites are close together, the trees are few and far between, and the sites don't include picnic tables or firepits. But they are all full-hookup, the park is well maintained and quiet, and you can't beat the sweet streets of downtown La Conner being just a quick walk (or even quicker drive) down the street. There's also a bathhouse with toilets and showers, all of which were immaculately clean. (You can get the door code from the campground host at RV Site #1.)

No issues. Leave it wide open on your custom indoor perch. No need for bottom paint. No slime or barnacle's. About the same price as any other marina moorage at a dock. And no trailer launching. Not buying a trailer means about $8k in savings for my kind of boat. plus a few thousand for bottom paint, which adds weight. And who likes trailering a boat? Better to use boats on the water. At a moments notice. On a lark, lets take the boat out. And it's in the water ready to go with a phone call. The place is pretty full and they don't advertise. They charge by the cubic inch, since that's how the racking in the building is sold. Lowering your radar can save cubic inches. So the price depends on cubic inches and every bit of room in the shed is important. They need to measure your boat to give you a price. If they can find room. Get in line. I held off on taking ownership of my current boat until we had a spot for it here. Like I said, get in line. Maintenance is usually done on outdoor work stands, which you get to use whenever you want. It's convenient to flush your engines with hoses they provide. You can wash the boat down with Salt away and get it all dialed in and ready for the next outing any time. There's a service department at Tom and Jerrys next door to take care of things as needed. And then there's location. The marina is at the north end of Swinomish channel, which means after launching, you get to put the hammer down as soon as you get past the swing bridge there and run 30 knots out or whatever. You're right on top of some of the best crabbing in the northwest, and whatever else there is to do in the San Juan Islands. You will use your boat more and fuss with it less by mooring at Twin Bridges. I can't imagine a bad review for Twin Bridges from anyone who's actually ever kept a boat there. Your boat's value will be saved by dry heated indoor secure moorage at Twin Bridges.

Now anyone enjoying boating, knows that you don't speed up to a marina, making a big wake, and rocking all the boats tied up there. My friends said to the two young men that they should be more careful when approaching the docks. One of the young men said to ho my friends F!!K, it's my marina. My friends went to the office and asked who he was. It turns out he was the son of the owner. My friends asked for their money back, got it from the clerk and left.

We're in the area for a wedding, and kept seeing the La Merced from the road as we'd drive into town. I'd read about it online on various roadside oddity sites and was pretty thrilled to see it in person. To explain, the La Merced is a big, hulking ship that's just pulled up onto dry land, dirt-filled, and with all these little trees just growing out of it. From afar it looks like an old steel ship, but it's all wood, with nails and portholes and doors still on it. As we came closer we could see part of the hull collapsed into the water with the big nails just scattered everywhere. There are signs prohibiting getting closer than the docks. What little I've been able to find about the ship is that it was built a little before 1920 and was put there in the '70s after falling out of use. Altogether, it's just fascinating to look at.

Not accessible by ferry, the island relies on the store to provide much-needed essentials (like craft beer on draft) to locals and tourists. And while their grocery selection is sparse, and not the cheapest game in town, it is - in fact - the ONLY game in town. So if you forgot eggs while you were on the mainland doing your monthly shopping, you're in luck! The store also hosts weekly events so it's worth checking out while you're there.
