We were able to sort our generator while there so we can now be more self sustainable. We enjoyed the quaint town with the shops and variety of restaurants. Also the boat house was very clean and well maintained. Only wish we stayed long enough to check out the farmers market near by. Thank you to Perry for the verbal tour before we went exploring on our own.

Tate on June 20th, 2022:

Excellent service. Very clean and tidy. Very well protected deep water marina. My boat draws 5 feet, and we were placed in the extreme corner along the bulkhead (G dock) and still had 8 feet at low tide. Easy walking access within 10 minutes to all of the historic downtown area, including multiple choices for restaurants and shops. Very tidy bath house, laundry room and bathrooms on the bulkhead at G dock. No pool, but that is not why we visit marinas, so that is not a negative for us. Marina is bordered by a large public park with huge grassy areas for kids or dogs to play. Immediately adjacent to the Cambridge Yacht Club, with its modest clubhouse if you have reciprocal privileges with your local club…We did not visit the yacht club, so I have no assessment there. The yacht club and the marina are unrelated. There were no negatives that led to the four star rating. I just rarely five stars, since it would have to be truly perfect in all respects. Fixed docks and ~2 foot tides.

Perry and Scott were my heroes. Had new transducers installed recently, I guess my sea trial was at their location. Arrived at the slip by having Perry guide me through the marina. As we were tying up the automatic bilge switch was working overtime, water being pumped from the rear bilge. Great, she was bone dry prior to splashing for her maiden launch - I knew that something was wrong. Water penetrating the boat through the transducer. Hence my sea trial at Cambridge Yacht Basin was blessed by having competent people available. Thank you Scott and Perry for not allowing my boat to sink. God Bless

Great Oasis Marina and staff! We stayed eight nights at Cambridge Yacht Basin. Everything was perfect from the moment we arrived. We cannot say enough nice things about Scott, Perry and Mike. Perry’s personal touch and enthusiasm for the marina and Cambridge is over the top. Perry gave us the run down on everything in Cambridge from eateries, churches, and where to reprovision. He is a superb ambassador for the city. Perry delivered an engine part that arrived early (0700) to my boat so I could correct a problem even though his workday starts at 0900. Scott is the dockmaster. He is easy going and a wealth of knowledge on the marina and local waters. We met people at church on Sunday and then ran into them later on the street and immediately struck up conversations. Everyone we met in stores and eateries were very welcoming and friendly. We will return and plan to spend a month at Cambridge Yacht Basin.

Referred us to the local 4th generation market - Simmons. They delivered us with our grocery supplies to the Marina. Both he, Perry & all at Simmons very welcoming!

While the location of the marina is great and the transient dock fee very reasonable, the dockmaster is one of the most arrogant and rude persons we have ever met in our sailing travels for many years all over the world. From the moment we hailed him on the radio about our arrival to bringing our boat into the slip, he was condescending and rude. He insisted that he, and only he, knows how to dock our sailboat and proceeded to shout at us when we did not "comply" with his wants. He in fact was not able to articulate or be clear with what he was trying to "make" us do. We politely told him that we did not appreciate his attitude and being shouted at and were very capable to tie our mooring lines off. His assistant had a similar attitude to the sailboat that took the slip next to us shortly after we arrived. Later on he chose to avoid us by making a wide detour around us when we were walking on the path - obviously very embarrassed & ashamed of his behavior. Really quite childish!

A Note from the Marina:

We want to thank these boaters for staying with Cambridge Yacht Basin - we are glad they enjoyed our central location in downtown Cambridge! We apologize for any miscommunication between our team and these boaters. Our staff is trained to provide specific instructions to all boaters upon arrival to the marina in order to provide for a safe arrival experience and to secure vessels appropriately. We did have to ask that these boaters move their lines, as they were a tripping hazard to these boaters and others when tied across the finger pier. We raised our voices when advised that one of the boaters on board was hard of hearing. We pride ourselves on being attentive and helpful to all boaters, and are sorry to have missed the mark on this visit. We hope to welcome these boaters back to our marina in the future for a remarkable experience.

We met three couples doing the Great Loop and had a pleasant evening with them before heading into town. The location of the marina is idea. Close enough to easily walk to great restaurants and shopping, but far enough away to be able to sleep when you want. Also a nice cooling breeze at the Yacht Basin, but protected from waves. We will definitely be going back!

When we asked him where we might find a fishing rod for our grandson, he immediately found one to loan to us from his equipment shed. Top notch service for our stay and a friendly call on the radio as we left to wish us a safe trip and to invite us back. Scott definitely goes the extra mile and gets my vote as the best dockmaster ever.

Arrived at the channel just before 4:00 in the afternoon. Made numerous calls on 68, 16, the phone number in the Snagaslip email and the dock master’s cell but could not get an answer. Left voice mails on both the landline and cell phone. This was our first trip to Cambridge so we had no information about the harbor or a slip assignment. We selected an open slip only to discover later we were in the Cambridge Yacht Club’s section. They were very nice and accommodating and had no problem with us remaining in their slip hooked to their power. Later that evening as we were having dinner in town, the CYB dock master finally called to ask when we would arrive. We never got codes for the facilities nor did we ever lay eyes on anyone from the CYB. Based on other reviews, this appears to be an unusual occurrence.

A Note from the Marina:

Thank you for your review and for staying with Cambridge Yacht Basin. We are sorry to read you were disappointed with your stay and arrival experience. Our team works to greet every vessel upon arrival, but we apologize that we missed the mark this time. We will certainly review our pre-arrival email instructions to see how we can improve our information for boaters. We hope to welcome this vessel back to our dock again in the future so that we can deliver the great experience that all boaters deserve.

With respect to the yacht basin itself, the only issue is that it's difficult to get anyone by phone. The main number has a cell phone for the dockmaster, but is always busy, not just often, but I called about seven times and busy. When I went to the dockmaster's office it was closed but had a 703 number to call but the number didn't answer or go to voice mail. They monitor 68, but unless you know you can't reach them, they should also monitor 16.

A Note from the Marina:

Thank you for your review and for staying with Cambridge Yacht Basin. We're sorry our team missed your calls ahead of arrival, our team is often out on the docks on busy weekends. We do monitor Channel 68 primarily and ask boaters to use this channel, as stated in our pre-arrival email, but we do also monitor 16 as a backup. We were happy to speak with this boater several times in person during their stay and hope to welcome them back to Cambridge Yacht Basin in the future.

We’ve travelled over 5,000 miles on the great loop and have not encountered a more welcoming, friendly and accommodating harbor. Harbormaster Scott and his team literally bent over backwards to ensure our stay was effortless and incredible. Cambridge is worth a stop. And Cambridge Yacht Basin is a top notch, well run facility.

Very clean would be nice if you had a swimming pool also

Very nice marina, so close to downtown and the historic district.

David on August 4th, 2021:

They were extremely helpful beginning with our interaction booking the slip at the last minute via the marina office. Perry from the dockmaster team met us alongside, helped us tie up and power-on, and gave us an orientation to the local restaurant and museum district in Cambridge. It's walkable! Definitely recommend Cambridge as a stopover and CYB.

Very nice stay. Marina is good quality, great location to walk into town. WiFi good, bathrooms well maintained and clean. Scott the dock master very helpful on arrival and with local advice on restaurants. Great walk through old historic homes. Harriet Tubman museum here and the Tubman Mural right downtown is awesome. If you have bikes, recommend riding around to find all the murals in town. Grocery is easy by bike, a little far to walk.

It was a great stay and CLEAN!

ANDY on August 1st, 2021:

We had a great stay. The marina is very clean, the slips are nice and the hookups were good. We were greeted upon arrival and helped with our lines, and even got a welcome pack and some suggestions for restaurants. The fuel dock and pump-outs were also great.

Great Staff - Scott the dock master was skilled and a great source of info in the e best restaurants in town. Docks in good shape. Bath/showers a little dated but very clean and well maintained. Easy walk to downtown with restaurants, groceries a short bike ride away. Lots of history, Harriet Tubman Museum, historic homes. We did a bike ride to find all the fantastic murals.

Bad communication between the site and marina told had a slip then on arrival told did not have a slip.

A Note from the Marina:

Thank you for leaving a review regarding your recent stay with Cambridge Yacht Basin. The confusion on arrival with this vessel was due to them being a commercial vessel rather than a standard transient vessel. We have a limited number of slips available each season for commercial vessels, which are meant to be booked directly with the marina rather than via Snag-A-Slip. We were able to accommodate this boater in the end, and there is no issue between Snag-A-Slip and Cambridge Yacht Basin communicating regarding any reservation. We hope you enjoyed your stay!

Kevin on July 16th, 2021:

The staff was excellent and very helpful. The facilities were well maintained. The bathrooms were clean and well maintained. Check out the local YMCA you can get a week pass for a reasonable price. Cambridge MD is worth visiting good restraunts and big box's in biking distance.

Marina staff are very friendly and helpful. Stayed with us until we were fully tied up and settled and provided helpful info on the various restaurants in town. Bathroom was clean with plenty of hot water for showering. Air conditioned sitting area was much appreciated during this hot spell. Will definitely be back. Location was great, easy walk to town for restaurants and historic tour. One night is not enough time to do everything!

Nice marina, clean and air conditioned rest rooms and decent WiFi. Stayed here a week and were quite comfortable on a T-head. Became a little rocky when there was a lot of boat traffic outside the marina's breakwater, but no problems at night. Scott and Perry were great at helping us dock and talking us into the marina via the channel. Had the added bonus of Cambridge's 4th of July fireworks. We'll be back!

The staff are super friendly and helpful. The only reason I did not give this 5 stars is the lack of wifi. No wifi at slip and not even a stable connection in the boaters lounge. (we were trying to do an important business transaction). Otherwise awesome marina

Dock hands were great helping us in. Bathrooms are clean and well equipped.

Gregory on June 28th, 2021:

Great stay in Cambridge! The marina is centrally located near downtown with easy in/out. A dockhand greeted us, tied all lines and shore power. He also gave us some handy guides and gave thorough info on dining and shopping. Bath house very clean and on-premise ice bags are handy, too.

The bathhouse is too far away from most slips. The biggest disappointment was the lack of personal contact with marina personnel. Beyond the initial greeting when they helped us tie up, there was no one in sight while we were docked. It would add so much value to a marina if their personnel knew anything about events in town. We were there Memorial Day and no one knew of any commemorations in town beyond the arrival of the schooner "Pride of Baltimore" even though a memorial service was going to be held by the American Legion directly outside the marina. More personal service, less bureaucracy.

A Note from the Marina:

We'd like to thank this boater for their review and for staying with Cambridge Yacht Basin. We are sorry to read that this customer was disappointed with their stay. Our team works to greet every vessel upon arrival and answer any questions to the best of our ability. We also aim to place all guest vessels on the docks closest to the marina office and marina amenities, which is where this guest was placed during their stay. We hope to welcome this vessel back to our dock again in the future so that we can deliver the great experience that all boaters deserve.

We were unable to use the WiFi as the signal wasn't strong enough in slip C13. We loved the Indian restaurant in town. We did rent a car to provision as there isn't much by way of groceries within walking distance. Enjoyed our stay and will be back.
