On-site, boaters can fuel up with Valvtect gas or deisel, grab some provisions, do some laundry and get cleaned up in the showers.

We stayed here for 2 nights while a winter storm passed. A $8 Uber took us to dinner and an online shop/delivery from Target provided any basic provisions/housewares you might need. The Marina offers all the services and amenities, and we enjoyed Tye immensely. He was so helpful, knowledgeable and welcoming. I hope as the Marina transitions to new owners they support the relaxed and friendly atmosphere that currently exists.

Great place to overnight! The staff couldn't be more welcoming. They have fuel and a small marine store and the WiFi works.

Docks are ok and float, power was weak, fresh water good, 20' plus water at high tide on face dock B. Manager Tye Munn was very accomodating, even to providing his cell number. Will definately stay here again because of Tye.

The folks here are pleasant and the facilities are fine. Waterway Guide has their slip rate at $1.50 per foot, but were charged $2.00 per foot. The area was hit hard by last season's hurricane. Repairs to slips have already been made.
A Note from the Marina:Marinas have the option to update their listings directly or send the information to Waterway Guide for entry. We will check on this discrepancy.

Stopped on my way to Florida and stayed for the night. Diesel price they charged was not the same that was recently posted on Waterway Guide(which was the main reason we picked here instead of another). On top of that they did not give the ten cents per gallon discount for transients that stay as described. Total stay was about 75.00 higher than planned, using the prices that were posted online. If your not on a budget everything else about the marina was good.
A Note from the Marina:Fuel prices posted on Waterway Explorer are those reported to us by the facility on a specific date and are subject to change. We update them weekly, but the facility may update at any time.

Be careful purchasing fuel here! Their actual price of fuel may be considerably higher than what is noted in the “Waterway Guide Fuel Report”. For example, on 10/31/18 they posted a price of $3.249 / gallon for diesel, but on 11/1/18 I was charged $3.45 / gallon. They told me that the price just went up the day before, which was the day they posted the $3.249 / gallon price! They also noted on the Waterway Guide site, that if you purchased over 100 gallons, you would receive a $.10 / gallon discount. I purchased 130 gallons of fuel and did not get ANY discount, and when I later asked WHY I didn’t get the discount, I was told I didn’t ask for it! LET THE BUYER BEWARE!

Savannah Bend Marina: Great marina, good slip price, cheap fuel, and Mary and Aaron were most helpful. What we really enjoyed was our evening next door at Despositos Bar and Restaurant.
