Over the summer I was lucky enough to stay at Goodwins Creek Marina on the Merrimack. The views are…read morephenomenal, and the in-ground pool is an added bonus. The marina offers cable and satellite TV, electricity and internet. (Wi-Fi signal pretty good). The residents of the marina are so friendly and often share what they catch. The laundry, showers, and bathrooms are so clean. There's a seasonal restaurant (breakfast and lunch), there's a dingy dock with jet skis, picnic tables, and gas grills for cooking out. The closest grocery store is "Stop and Shop" about 2 miles from the marina which has an electric charging station. The weekend is more crowded during the week, and everyone knows everyone. The marina is pet friendly and offers doggy waste bags however not a lot of grass for the dog. There were lots of parks near the marina for the dog. The fire pit is great and is often fired up on the weekends. Goodwin Creek Marina is a great home away from home.

This hidden gem is tucked away, off Pleasant Valley Rd in Amesbury, behind the mill building luxury condos. It's such a fun community here, where everybody is friends and everybody helps each other out. They run a very tight ship here, and everything is always clean and maintained. There's always a dockhand working, to help you out with whatever you need, which I love because I'm not the best at docking! They also have super clean restrooms and showers available. Paula is usually at the desk, and has always been helpful (and fun to chat with). If you are looking for a beautiful, clean spot to keep your boat, with friendly and helpful staff, Hatters Point is the place for you!

Word of caution if you use this marina. TAKE PICTURES OF YOUR BOAT, TRAILER, AND MOTOR before you…read morestore it for winter. Our trailer was damaged last season and our motor was damaged over the winter. The "employees" there move your boat around as they see fit. We had to put our own heavy duty bags over our motor because the shrinkwrappers failed to cover the motor. Upon unwrapping in spring we found damage to our motor and propeller. There was a chunk missing from the motor and propeller and should have been recovered inside the bags. Instead we found big holes in the bag where the broken pieces were removed in order to cover up the "incident". The owner, Donnie, not only accused us of doing the damage to motor before we took it out of water for the season, but he actually threatened physical violence for addressing the problem. His "money maker" (his exact words) at this marina is storage container landlord, and the marina is a "hobby" at best. Further up the river there are many much more professional marinas that treat their customers with respect and courtesy.

The Dockside Marina is the one and only marina on Arlington Lake…read more The Maria is where you can launch and dock your boat and fill up with B&H gas. Also a B&H gas station, quickie mart, and a place where you can get fishing licenses, register your boat, or recreational vehicle. They sell live bait; beer, and ice cream! I like the steamed hot dogs! A very local place where the Arlington Lake community comes together.

I brought it by and asked him to take a look at it and the owner immediately got defensive and argumentative and wouldn't even take a look at it. I was told to take it elsewhere to have work done on it. He said that the boat was junk and shouldn't be used. Funny he didn't say the same when he was able to replace an outdrive. I had never had any issues other that the power tilt not working, which he was supposed to repair. Bottom line, find somewhere else to take your boat for repairs, this place does not stand behind it's work. I would give them 0 stars but it is not an option. want to still use them?? you've been warned

Like many businesses they have been using the "covid excuse" to cover for just not giving a care and they are in a location where they probably get plenty of business without needing to worry about their reputation or actually serving their customers. The latest episode is that they have decided to stop servicing moorings on the Merrimack river with the exception of the moorings they own themselves (and charge thousands for) leaving the town and their customers in a bit of a lurch. It's really sad to see this Marina go down hill and hopefully someone new will step up where this marina has dropped the mooring ball.
