You can pull your boat right up to the dock. The only food option is frozen pizza or chips. Most of the staff is friendly but their are a couple of bartenders who are not people friendly. The reason for 3 stars is because of a couple of uncaring employees and the fact that you always have to go to bar because nobody will wait on your table.

Freedom Boat Club has made my boating experience amazing while saving me the headache and expenses…read moreof traditional boat ownership. I highly recommend all of my family and friends to come check the club out and get out on the water! They have a fleet of awesome brand new boats and are always adding new boats to the fleet throughout the year. Haven't found another club that offers a multimillion dollar fleet of brand new boats for their members to enjoy. Not to mention as a member you get access to their 280 other locations across the world!

Carondelet Park is a jewel in the South City neighborhood of Carondelet. Beautiful winding road…read morethrough trees that are kind of reminiscent of the layout of Forest Park. There's a "lake' with a fountain that is peaceful and there are plenty of spots to park and sit it take a walk and rejuvenate yourself. But the crown jewel is the YMCA right inside the park. It has exercise machines, 2 aquatic centers (the outdoor one is quite spectacular in the summertime), but the best is that I'd had comfortable places to lounge, work on your laptop, get free coffees and tea (like Parisian Blackberry) or hang out with people in the Senior Hub.

I saw some people fishing which I guess is popular at this park. While I was walking on the track I was taking in the scenery and enjoying all the greenery and views. The park sits close to a neighborhood and I was just admiring the homes as I made my way around the track. I noticed they had places for horseshoe and other park activities, but things seem to be closed off right now due to COVID. People were staying distanced from one another and it was easy to walk around people if I needed to. This is a great park and I can't wait to visit it again on the next nice day we get in STL.

We are having a wonderful experience at Alton Marina AKA Seahorse Ranch Marina in Alton, Illinois!…read moreFrom start to finish, the service was excellent. At the fuel dock, Jackson and Jill went above and beyond--helping with pump-out, rinse-out, and even offering to take our trash. Fuel prices were very reasonable too. The marina office staff were fantastic to deal with. We were a bit uncertain about our timing and length of stay, but they were flexible and accommodating the whole way through. When we pulled into our slip, our neighbors came right out to lend a hand with docking, which gave the whole place a welcoming, community feel. The facilities are clean and well-kept, with a laundry room (two washers and two dryers at just $1 each!), a beautiful pool area, and a casual snack bar that's perfect for breakfast or lunch. The covered slips feel secure, and the location is excellent--right next to the Alton Amphitheater, where there were live events going on during our visit. Another big plus is convenience: Enterprise picked us up right at the marina for a rental car, which made exploring the area simple. All in all, Seahorse Marina is a gem on the river. Great service, friendly atmosphere, and everything you need for a comfortable stay. We'll definitely be back! Thanks, Jan & Mike, Kwiat Nights III

Impressive! My…read morecousin periodically docks his boat here. Last night, I spent the night on his boat after hosting a bridal shower over at the Cracker Factory. The property is well secured and safe. I was truly impressed with how pristine this marina was maintained. This marina is definitely upscale compared to those up closer to Grafton. Arriving late at night, I didn't have the opportunity to use the built in pool, but I'm sure it is a popular gathering place with the boating community during regular hours. The restrooms for those who are docked in the marina bays were equal to a upscale private mens health club. Ahhhh, a real shower instead of one on the boat. This marina has it all for the true boater. I'll be back? - When the cousin is docked here, I'll be here. When: April 28, 2018 Why: Sleep Over

My boyfriend, his parents, and myself came out here to go jet skiing…read more Formally called Cuivre Island Conservation Area, the way you actually pronounce Cuivre is 'quiver'. It is a nice nature area nestled off Dalbow Road and near Highway 79. Here you have water access for your boats and jet skis. There are some spots available for picnicking and such too. I'd advise to arrive early if you intend on parking near the water access area since it has limited spacing for vehicles. The water that you will be getting in is a tributary off of the Mississippi River. Lots of people come down here to go fishing since they've got such an abundance of different fish such as bass, crappie, and catfish. Enjoy your visit!

I went with my girlfriend's family who have had property there for many years. We were able to go on the boat, swim, kayak, paddle boat, and go tubing. I know a lot of people fish there as well.

I dumped him in the lake and he swam a little bit, even though he doesn't love seining. But where the property is the water was shallow enough for him to hop around in the water and still have his feet on the ground. Overall, I would definitely come back.
