Small area by Tim's to dock next to ramp. The ramp can be entertaining to watch. Good store.

No one answered the radio call as we were approaching the marina. After tying up at what we thought might be the correct dock (we were with another boat) we went into the office only to find out we needed to move our boats to another area. There was no welcoming brief and we never found out if there were bathroom or shower facilities available. The marina seemed abandoned with the store and restaurant both closed. The pool was okay at least. Don’t recommend going here in the middle of the week. (We went on a Wednesday in August.)

A Note from the Marina:

Snag-A-Slip reached out to the marina manager for further comment but did not hear back regarding this review.

Laid back location, great place to relax. Love the floating docks and the beautiful beach.

Wouldn't answer 16 on radio, so we had to call on phone. When we went to check in, the lady acted like she didn't know we had a reservation and for how long. Very unprofessional behind the desk. When asked about pump out when we leave,we were told the guy doesn't come till 11.But we could do it ourselves. They also charge $20..even though website says $10. No marina on the Potomac charges more than $5 for this service and many offer it free with slip. Pumpout didn't work do we had to wait till 9 to get refund. The bathrooms were fine but the 2 showers each were not. No shelf to put incidentals. One of the woman's doors would even close. Very low water pressure. The restaurant had good food and great service. The marina needs updating, and personnel retrained.

A Note from the Marina:

Snag-A-Slip reached out to the marina for comment but did not hear back regarding this review. Snag-A-Slip connects directly to this marina's on site reservation system and each marina receives a confirmation email for all reservations.

Facility is nice and well maintained. Fuel and pump outs may be the most expensive I have seen.

The marina was nice, and the floating docks were in good shape. The restaurant right there was convenient and the food was good. The beach was 100 yds away and nice and clean - my kids were bummed we didn't have time to go for a swim. The only complaint was the fuel dock hours weren't great for us - we got in after it closed at 5p, and then it didn't open until 9a the next day, which was after we planned to depart, so we stopped down river to fuel up.

Wonderful, wonderful slip location, pool, and beach. We had a great time as a family. Best Seafood Omelette that I’ve ever had. Great crab cakes too!

Eric on September 6th, 2020:

The transient docks, bathrooms, staff, and onsite restaurant were all great. The negatives were the pool water was cloudy and there was a very large RV event going on adjacent to the transient docks. We’ll be back again, really enjoyed our stay. Also, another great restaurant a bike ride away, Ruby’s.

We enjoyed our stay at Coles, especially since we needed to stay an extra day. Brittany was great and very helpful

Jenn on August 17th, 2020:

Marina is well positioned to keep boats safe in wind and weather. We had a slip outside of the shed on A dock and felt secure. Staff was friendly.

Friendly and helpful staff as well as the other boaters we encountered. Our family have been coming here since the 70’s and will continue to do so for many years.

John on July 7th, 2020:

We only stayed overnight. The docks are in very good condition, though I wish the towers weren't quite so close to the edge.

Neal on July 5th, 2020:

The marina staff were excellent. The woman at the front desk helped me reach out to their boat mechanic to try to fix an issue we had. The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars is because the marina is showing some age and needs a bit of TLC. As for Tim’s...We felt it was overpriced (~$18 for an order of crab balls and french fries) and due to staff shortages they closed early (8:00 PM).

Great place to stop on the way down the Potomac

Coles Point Marina is in a great location for us, very protected from waves. We were in a covered slip with water and power. Tim’s restaurant was fantastic. The only reason to keep it from a five star is the bath house could use some renovations and more frequent cleanings. Overall, we were pleased and do plan to go back.

Coles Point Marina is an overall average Marina. The slips and roofs are in somewhat poor repair and the Marina has a "fell on hardtimes" vibe. Nats and Flys were a constant annoyance, so bring bugs spray. The view and expansive open sand beach is what makes this place a great location. Coles Point is also part of an RV Park which has a ton of golf cart traffic, so ask to be in the covered slips if you would like to be away from the action/noise. Gas was higher than others in the areas. The onsite restaurant "Tim's at Coles Point" is okay in food quality and service. The Coles Point Marina employees were kind and pleasant. To sum it up, Coles Point is average but could use a little more attention to maintenance.

Wonderful location and amenities. Staff member Kacey took great care of us.

Marina is nice, onsite restaurant needs to improve on the food. Not good at all. Staff is nice though

The girl on the fuel dock was great. The men's room needs to have both toilets replaced. Old and ugly! Yuck!

People are great. Bathrooms could stand improvement. Covered slips have no cleats to tie up to.

Sharon on August 14th, 2018:

The manager ( didn’t get his name) met us during a tremendous downpour to show us to our slip, take dock lines and hook up our shore power cord. We still got soaked but he did not shy away from helping us in very bad conditions.

Debbie on August 12th, 2018:

Had reservations for this past Saturday night, no one responded on VHF radio or answered the phone. When I finally tracked someone down we were told to park in a slip right in front of the restaurant which meant we were forced to listen to loud music and watch flashing lights until midnight. We had requested a covered slip. There was no dockhand to help with docking. By the time we docked ourselves and hooked up power, I went to the office and it was closed! No one even came to check with us and provide us with the wifi password or marina information before closing. Closing a marina at 5:00 P.M. on a Saturday night in the summertime is crazy. We saw so many people coming in to gas up only to find the place is closed. From what we could see and experienced at this marina I would keep on cruising by and not stop. The marina is run down and does not look like anything like you see in the pictures on this page.
