The guys were great with my son and made us both feel welcome. They're both great with kids! I booked 3 hours (more than enough time) and we departed from Scituate at 4pm. In no time, he caught 2 big bluefish, and we ended up with 6. He also had a fun time hauling in lobster pots and driving the boat. We took two lobsters home for dinner, along with some fish. The ride back was awesome as well. I told him, "this is the type of day you'll always remember". I know I will, and that this is going to be something we do for years with Labrador. Thanks, Doug and Mike!

They also have a laundromat on site. There are a few studio efficiencies, no stoves in these but there are decks on both the front and back, so you can catch the sun rise over the ocean, and sunset over the river. Charcoal grills are available in the yard; you provide the charcoal and maybe some aluminum foil for the grill. There are several two bedroom houses and a few 3 bedrooms. The houses have full kitchens. We usually bring plenty of food: prepared if we are staying in an efficiency so we can heat them up in the microwave. The kitchens have a table large enough for the number of guests each house sleeps. The living room has sofa's, comfy chair, end tables, coffee table and TV. In the summer there are fans. In the winter there is a gas fireplace. Most everything you would need in the kitchen is provided: plates, cups, flatware, coffee maker, toaster, pans, spatula for cooking, mixing bowl, cutting board, etc. It's often mismatched, but it's all there. Sometimes there are a couple of wine glasses too. I usually bring a few items of my own, like my coffee cup, just because I prefer my own, as well as storage items like aluminum foil or plastic storage bags and paper towels. If I haven't pre-prepped food I plan to cook, I'll bring my own chef's knife as those are not provided. Basically anything I want to be sure of, I bring. They provide dish towels, sponge and dish soap. The bathroom has soap and toilet paper. The office provides sheets and towels. The guests are required to clean before leaving: sweep floors, vacuum carpets, wash dishes and put them away, strip the beds. The staff will clean the restrooms and leave new linens for the next guests. Towels can be delivered daily if needed. Just call the office. The cliff face is eroding and some of the RV parking spots have fallen into the ocean as has the roadway, which once made a loop along the cliff, creating two dead-end streets. The beach on the river side is stones that have been placed there to help reduce erosion. If you walk toward the river on the left side of this beach (it's a 'cove beach'), the area becomes more sandy. If you continue around to the left, you can walk along the river and marshlands. There are picnic tables 'here and there' provided by 4th cliff. We sometimes bring our coffee down here in the early mornings. Additionally, you can walk along the beach, around the end of the cliff, to the ocean side of the property. Once you get past the cliff face, the beach is sandy, although there may be a number of rocks in the water. Because of the rockiness of the beach areas in general, do bring your water shoes to save your toes. This ocean facing beach is used by homeowners along Central Ave. and there is plenty of space for everyone. At low tide, you can wander around the rocky areas and find all kinds of sea creatures in among the stones. The recreation area includes a small shop in the office building for things you may have forgotten and souvenirs, however, during the pandemic, the office is not open to guests. If you are military, this is a pleasant spot for a vacation along the water. Located in the little village of Humarock, within Scituate, there is a small restaurant where Central Ave meets Marshfield Ave. You can grab a morning coffee, breakfast or lunch here. A small 'beach shop' to get the floats, souvenirs and other things you may want is locate across the street on the other side of the intersection (think diagonally). Access to the public beach is here, however parking is not abundant, so maybe bring your bikes and take the ride down if you'd like to use this beach access. There is an Irish pub just a little further along on Marshfield Ave and a larger restaurant on the other side of the bridge where Marshfield Ave turns into Sea Street. (Check their policy during Covid - they may be 'take out' only) There is a convenience store/liquor store in this area. A grocery store is on Rt 139 at the intersection of Furnace St. And if those restaurants are not enough for you, drive into Scituate for one of the many food options they have available. We also make it a point to stop for a walk at one of the many Audubon or conservation areas nearby. There is a lighthouse in Scituate, and a marina on the North River where you can stop for a beverage and light meal while sitting outdoors on the river if that appeal to you. Plenty to keep you busy.

It started raining, so he decided to leave, but could not get his motor started. He ended up pulling anchor and letting the current take him up the river trying to spot somebody to help him. He tried blowing his air horn a few times, but nobody heard or responded and it finally ran out of air. He drifted for quite a while, more than an hour, in heavy rain. When he finally drifted past Mary's he dropped the anchor and began waving his rain coat in the air to get somebody' attention. Somebody from Mary's took a skiff out to him and towed him all the way back to the boat launch on the South river. I am beyond grateful for the way they took care of him. He is in his 70's now, a former Navy guy, and somebody that always knew how to handle himself on the water. When they brought him back, he was cold and tired. I am so glad that the nice people there helped him out. He could have ended up with hypothermia very easily that day. On a side note, my dad and I used to rent boats from Mary's way back in the early 80's...they have been there a very long time and their rates are very reasonable. What impresses me most is how they treat people. They helped my dad out a lot. So much, that I decided I just had to write this review. Whoever it was that helped my Dad, Thank You!

The crew was relaxed and fun to be with and all clearly enjoy being out on the water. We had a great time and would highly recommend this company and its captain!

I don't think I can say enough great things about the trip, but I'll give some of the highlights. The parking was free, the timing loose (we left an hour early, came back 2 hours late) and the atmosphere was fun. Captain Jay and Nick couldn't have been more accomidating, especially when the fish stopped biting around noon, I think that if someone thought it would have helped Jay would have grabbed a hook and jumped in himself just to liven things up. Despite the slow end we brought home a variety of tasty fish which were cleaned at the docks for no extra charge. My only reccomendation to any trip planner would be to bring some sort of small folding chair- While there was ample places to sit nothing was a "chair" per se and there were absolutely no cupholders in the back. While this proved to be of no significant problem, if you have a party smaller than 4 you're going to have noplace to sit your beer while you are reeling. DL/TL For those of you who hate reading. A+ on the trip, the crew, and the fish, failure on the lack of cup holders.
