A well run marina in an absolute jewel of a town.The marina is relatively small with well maintained wooden docks. The dock cleats are properly sized and not too small. The marina staff has been well trained and they know how to accept and secure lines. They can tie a proper cleat hitch, something that is all too rare. The marina grounds are spectacular with a play fountain, wide sidewalks, spectacular views, perfectly landscaped and maintained lawn with beautiful trees accenting the lawn. Ducks live in the small pools that are fed by cascading water. There is a small open amphitheatre next door for outdoor concerts. There is a great grocery store within a short walk. There are probably a dozen or more restaurants/pubs/bars within a five minute walk. There are more boutiques and gift shops than I could easily count.This marina is as close to boating heaven as I have ever seen.
If you enjoy strolling around marinas and trendy downtown areas, this is a wonderful choice. Many cute shops, bars/restaurants, troubadours, walking areas, scenic views, an amphitheater, spectacular boats/yachts, a draw bridge...you get the picture. Another spectacular northern Michigan town!
Our favorite stop! We love Patrick, Hal and staff — everyone is so helpful and friendly. Showers and laundry are very clean, always someone on hand to assist when needed. Very nice grocery store within walking distance as well as lots of restaurants, liquor store, and clothing stores. If you are fortunate enough to get a boat slip, you are fortunate enough 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩.
If you go during the week. Thursday they have a nice farmers market. You can stroll along the town sidewalk and watch the sun pop up in the marina, the view is picturesque and the farmers market makes it homey. This is one memory that you will always smile about and have a nice warm feeling as you walk into a Norman Rockwell painting.
Best kept secret town in northern Michigan. What a gem. Just spent the afternoon watching boats travel in and out of Charlevoix Lake which empties into Lake Michigan.A number of restaurants available as well plenty of places to just sit and enjoy the views.The draw bridge on the main street was a bonus to watch as the taller boats came and went.

2021-07-30Everything in Charlevoix is beautiful! Well, except for the bridge that gets all backed up constantly when they have to let the boats through. They need to change the way they do that! Hire some engineers to develop a fix.

2021-09-05Beautiful marina. They also have a day dock so you can go into town for a while at no cost. The outdoor amphitheater is right near the day dock, and has public restrooms. This whole area is beautiful, with some rather serious money floating around! Well stay longer next time!
