My friend and I stayed at the dockside inn this weekend. Upon arrival, we were greeted right away by a sweet woman who checked us in. The room was very clean, there was a fridge, coffee maker, air conditioner. At night the area was very quiet. We had a wonderful stay!

Smokers please be considerate

The motel was great. Had everything we needed...except DECAF coffee. Our problem was with the smokers. It was beautiful weather and we loved to have our window open in the evening but we had to continually shut it because the smoke from the smokers around us kept coming in, all evening. Regular cigarette smoke was bad, cannabis smoke was even worse. Not sure what can be done about this as they have "the right" to smoke. Don't we also have the right to breathe clean air?

Good location. Good price. Helpfull staff.

Great staff. Saw that I was not very mobile and when I asked where the ice was, offered to get it for me because it was in the second floor. New beds. Clean. Very close to marina. Plus for me.

They're really putting in an effort to beautify the motel. The beds were very comfortable and the rooms were clean. It was surprisingly quiet with all the workers that stay there. They've attracted a quality bunch of customer's. I would stay again.
