If you enjoy the water, this is definitely a nice place to visit. On the side where we were, there…read morewere not a ton of businesses, but we were still able to find some delicious food & drink. There was a wine festival with music and lots of stalls with vendors. We ate some stellar corn dogs made with delicious, all-beef frankfurters. We browsed shops and purchased some fine, imported, Italian balsamic vinegar after an educational tasting. We also purchased some nice, inexpensive jewelry from a young woman in another stall. We also visited a smoke shop and ice cream parlor. The aquarium was also nearby, but we did not have time to stop in this trip; maybe next time!

Highly recommend this Harbor if you are ever in the Baltimore area. It is also close to the…read moreBaseball and Football Stadiums. Also, in the harbor you have the Museum of science, Aquarium, boat tours, and a bunch of shops in the area. Be sure to check out the museum of science since I attended and especially if you have kids, they have so much to do. There is parking all over close by, however it is not cheap!! Also make sure you park right across the street. There is a lot of places to eat as well When I went the harbor was frozen with ice, which was cool to see. This is a must see

Drop day 2026 didn't go as expected but it got done. Having had some work done on the boat back in…read morethe fall, and said mechanic having stolen my money and left my boat a mess, I was happy to see Old Bay Marina has a new guy available to do the work. I'm out $900 from Craig H who skipped town and left me high and dry (literally on the hard) without a working sailboat. Don Johnson to the rescue. Don was right on time with a drop time for my boat and had it in the water quickly while his parrot named Gabby rode along on his shoulder. It was then we discovered it wouldn't start. Can't motor over to the slip with no power. Don, Jarod, Stu and even Don's partner, Holly, sprang into action. A tug was needed. The wind picked up as we turned into the slip section. We were hitting boats, pylons, anything the wind could blow us into. Unfazed and determined, Don kept his cool and coordinated efforts to have everyone else, plus some other boat owners (thanks, Lisa and Joyce!), to help "walk" the boat into the slip. How stressful! Almost six hours, and 8 people to help, later, the boat was in and tied off. To add some excitement, our car was now dead and Don got right to work to give us a jump and get us out of there. I definitely owe this crew a case of Bud. Don is currently doing the work that Craig lied about doing and we should be on the Bay in no time. Thanks, Don Johnson! (Doesn't the Miami Vice theme run through your head when you read this?)

We have stayed at this marina for over a decade. Are you looking for a swimming pool? Nope. Looking…read morefor yachty clothes? Nope. Looking for beautiful sunsets? Looking for quick access to the Bay? Looking for a nice breeze? Looking for a mom and pop place to do your work and tie up your boat? Looking for decent prices? Looking for interesting people to chat with? Then this quite possibly is your kinda of place. The piers are not floating but generally there is not much of a tide. If you have a large keel you would need to be further out because there can be a depth issue closer to land. Brian the owner is a wealth of information! This is across from the former Beth Steel site but now is much quieter and much easier to breath. Give it a try!!!!

We have spent seasons with different marina's from the Potomac to Perryville and no one comes close to Cutter Marina. Their service department is fantastic.

It is a rare thing in this day an age when you deal with people that actually care about you "the customer". That said, I was also pleasantly surprised to hear the same great things repeated over and over again by the many others working on their boats and the live aboard people within the marina.

Below are two photographs of boats sinking at this Marina, and in the first picture the boat is…read morestill there and it's still sinking with the engine submerged into the water. There is another picture here of a water cart.... you have to drag water to your boat starting in November because the marina turns off the water supply. They do not tell you this when you sign your contract and we would not have done a live-aboard if we would have known this. Another picture is a power pedastal that blew over not too long ago, still sitting there, and has been sitting there for over a week like that. The dockmaster Zion is a very nice guy, but he seems very very burnt out at his job and made this whole experience 80% less of what it could have been. When the bigger boat sank we had texted Zion and with fuel oozing out of the boat, it took him almost 3 hours to arrive at the marina and he finally skirted a fuel net around the boat fuel but the fuel was still leaking out of the boat around our boat which could have been a huge fire hazard not to mention all of this being a huge DNR hazard and lawsuit for the marina. For the first 5 months we were there the trash on the docks was allowed to overflow in the containers,the bath houses were always left disgusting and unclean, Marina tennants were cramming their clothes and other things in the back closets with the doors open. the security gate was malfunctioning and the downtown public, homeless people, drug addicts were allowed to enter the marina for almost 2 months, Nicks Fish House employees were taking showers and using the restroom in the bathhouse, the security door in the bath house was also down the same amount of time, and homeless people were coming in off the streets taking showers in the bath house. The parking at this Marina is one of the absolute worst and most anxiety filled things I have probably ever experienced in my life. Zion does not run people out of the marina who are parking there from Nick's Cafe and they basically take up all the spaces and every night you come home you have to wonder if you're going to have a parking space or not and you have to dodge and seek for a parking space. My car was actually bumped into three different times on the front end and I'm still working on my third repair....the customers at Nicks Fish House get drunk and pull out of the ( super narrow ) alley really really quick and bump into your car or scrape/dent it. A few months ago my girlfriend got her catalytic converter chopped off of her car there and Zion said the camera showed nothing as he also said the cameras showed nothing when my car got damaged three different times. I feel like he lied to me and said the cameras were working when they were not. The absolute worst part of this experience beyond everything I have already listed is the loud droning and thumping rap music that is resonating in the air from Nick's Fish House and from also Covington Park..This absolutely made almost every night uncomfortable. This whole experience was a nightmare, crime is rising in the area and I feel it is not up to code in many many ways.
