Great place to stop while traveling the Erie. The folks there are SO welcoming and helpful. We were exhausted after a day of locking and it was already 4pm. We needed a quick place to dock. Called them up and told them we were right outside the marina… could they take a 48′ boat…. now. ‘Of course’, they said and they guided us in, helped with lines and invited for a drink at the club bar. What amazing people. We are so glad we found this little oasis on the canal. HIGHLY recommend!
