We tried calling the dockmaster by phone and on VHF for over a half hour when we arrived. Never picked up by phone, never picked up by VHF. We docked temporarily. A slip holder saw us and came over. He directed us to an open/empty slip he thought we could use. We docked and continued to try to contact the dock master with no success. We didn't have the gate code to get back in should we leave the marina. He reluctantly gave us his and said do not share it for security reasons of course. We stayed Friday night and Saturday night and never heard from the dock master even though we continued to call and go up to the office, which was locked up. We wanted to get a pump out when we left but since there was no dockmaster we didn't know what to do. The marina is nice, the area is nice, not sure we'll come back though.

The yards location is excellent and the floating concrete docks are solid & stable, snag a slip showed no availability but a phone call discovered a transient slip after all. BUT things went downhill from there: I phoned the Dockmaster, he didn’t know I was coming, no slip assignment. Told to call on VHF 16 on arrival. Radioed 15 minutes later- crickets. Finally, after several phone calls, a slip was assigned and a helpful man who takes care of the freedom boat fleet helped with our lines. Dockmaster is not on site and just watches the video feeds of the docks. The gangplank entrances were piled high with garbage - 2 & 3 days after July 4th. The water around the floaters was a disgusting mess of floating debris, plastic garbage & flotsam. Apparently this is acceptable & normal on the Anacostia River. The washrooms (2 unisex) are clean, code accessed but basic and the individual doors don’t lock! The single shower has additional code access but appears not to be air conditioned.

A Note from the Marina:

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback about your recent experience at our marina. We appreciate your positive comments regarding our excellent location and the solid and stable floating concrete docks. We apologize for the issues you encountered during your stay, as our staff was managing a high volume of guests and requests during the busy July 4th period. Regarding the communication and slip assignment, we apologize for any perceived delay. Our scheduled dockhand called out unexpectedly on July 5th. This reservation was made shortly before the boater arrived at the marina, and our team did provide a slip assignment when the boater called in. As we were unexpectedly short staffed, we asked the Freedom Boats team on site to assist with tying this boater up on arrival. Our team members do their best to handle these situations efficiently, and apologize if we fell short here. Regarding the bathrooms and shower facilities, please note that an external company is responsible for the cleanliness and maintenance of these areas.  The doors do lock and shut, but sometimes need an extra push. The shower facilities are not air conditioned.  We understand your concerns about the garbage and debris around the gangplank entrances and in the water. We acknowledge that the trash situation was not up to our usual standards. With our team member calling out, the cleanup was incomplete on July 5th. However, our General Manager personally addressed this issue the next day, and ensured that the remaining trash was taken care of promptly. We would like to mention that managing the trash and debris in the river is an ongoing challenge for us and other marinas along the Anacostia River, especially after storms. We understand your frustration, and while we make efforts to keep the area clean, it requires continuous attention.  We appreciate your understanding and patience in these matters. We are committed to continuously improving our services and facilities to provide a better experience for all boaters. We hope you will give us another opportunity to exceed your expectations in the future.

Great location and nice marina. But I could not give a higher rating because of the excessive trash and debris in the marina. The Anacostia River still needs a lot of work to get cleaned up.

A Note from the Marina:

We would like to thank this boater for staying at The Yards Marina and for taking time to provide feedback. We work with RiverKeepers to collect the debris, but we do see an increase in debris after storms, we apologize that it negatively impacted your stay.

The marina is easy access from the Potomac (slack tide recommended, but not required) great area with restaurants, sports (Nationals, United (MLS)) and easy walking/Uber to the Capitol and National Mall! Also easy in and out to Ronald Reagan! Marina itself was secure, the manager was extremely helpful and available. We recommend this marine for short and long term!!

Hard to get hold of someone to get slip assignment. Also, Marina was quite messy with unsightly debris and no bathrooms or shower (or amenities of any kind for that matter) you'd expect in a Downtown DC site.

A Note from the Marina:

We would like to thank this boater for staying at The Yards Marina and for taking time to provide feedback. We have a process for contacting visiting boaters prior to arrival to communicate the amenities and the slip assignment, and apologize that we missed this step for this reservation. We do have full-service restrooms and showers in the building on the promenade. We work with RiverKeepers to collect the debris, but the amount of damage from the storm was excessive, and we apologize that it negatively impacted your stay. We enjoyed hosting this boater at the marina and hope to welcome you back for another stay in the future!

The attendant was very helpful. He assisted us with guiding us to the slip with his radio then assisted us with tying the lines and then hooking up the power cable. Excellent service. The marina was excellent, our slip was excellent. Unfortunately the water was full of debris everywhere. Plastic bottles and wood branches and logs and wood pieces. It was bad. Perhaps the team could scope up some of the debris. It looked terrible.

A Note from the Marina:

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We appreciate your kind words about our staff. Unfortunately, due to weather conditions, many local rivers and tributaries are experiencing an increase in debris. Consequently, we do have some debris floating in and out of slips. While we aim to remove debris from the slips as we see it, we missed some in this case. We enjoyed having you at the marina and hope to see you again soon.

Everything was great except for no shore power. We spent the night and had to run our generator all night. We were told their electrical system was sensitive to certain vessels including mine. We were told it happen to another boat at the same slip the week before. We were discounted $30. Other than that, it was perfect.

A Note from the Marina:

Thank you for your review and for staying with The Yards Marina.

Coordination was great and we were met on arrival by the manager, Peter Curcio. Well maintained floating docks and nice location for our two beagles as there is ample space for them to enjoy. On Sat/Sun the garbage had not been picked up for several days and was a mound of refuse. Also, the gate was broken and since Sunday (it’s now Tuesday) the place has been without any staff. When Peter showed up Tuesday all was set in order… garbage picked up, gate repaired, and Peter assisting with pump out/departure. Perhaps all they need is some help on the weekend but otherwise a great marina

Had a great experience at the marina and Peter the manager was very professional. He called the morning before arrival with slip information and was ready at the slip to assist with docking electric hookup. Lots of restaurants and nice boardwalk. The docks were clean but there is a terrible problem with trash gathering up in each slip. It’s. It not really something that the dock master or the crew has control over but there has to be some sort of a trash collection device the corporate can purchase for the staff to correct the problem.

Need to make pump-out more accessible. I had to go to James Creek Marina to get pumped out. Large yacht docked close to pump-out made it a tight squeeze but Dingy on portable dock blocked actual access. Other than above comment The Yards is a very well run marina.

Peter Curcio was the dock master on hand when we arrived. He was outstanding and helped with lines and power. He was great!

Peter was extremely helpful. When our power cable didn't work with the sensitive GFIs at the marina, he was able to find a loaner for us from another marina. Thank you!

FYI- I have given the marina the opportunity to fix this issue prior to my review but have received no response. The slip I was given was full of garbage causing my AC to cut out twice during the evening and my having to open the hatch and clean out the filter during the middle of the night. There were additional slips further out on the dock that were not occupied, we complained about the trash and were not offered these slips. I understand the garbage is not completely within their control but for $100 a night they should provide a slip free or garbage or alert boaters to the condition of the marina before accepting the reservation. I had a similar issue here earlier this season. The wharf is looking like a value at this point.

A Note from the Marina:

We were sorry to read this review and that this boater was unhappy with their stay. We have connected with this boater regarding their experience, to go through the review and to get feedback for improvement. It is a shame that debris ended up in the slip, resulting in a poor experience. Unfortunately, due to weather conditions, many local rivers and tributaries are experiencing an increase in debris. Consequently, we do have some debris floating in and out of slips. While we aim to remove debris as we see it, we missed some in this case. The boater asked to be relocated further down the dock to a different set of slips, but unfortunately there were no other available transient slips on that dock. The open slips referred to in this review are held under annual contracts. We did offer the boater an option to move docks into open transient slips that were free of debris, however the boater chose to stay in their original spot, near a friend. We are happy to report that this issue has been solved offline and that the boater plans to return to The Yards in the future. We look forward to welcoming this vessel back to our docks so that we can deliver the great experience that all boaters deserve.

Brian and his crew were extremely helpful and courteous. If it would not have been for them I would have given a lower rating. We were extremely disappointed in the bathhouse. The bathrooms were being shared/used by the club next door in the evening. There was a line of people waiting to use the facilities. The next morning when we went back the bathrooms were disgusting and unacceptable.

Docks in great shape and visually kept up. Bathrooms barely air conditioned. Shower head broken. Staff (when there) extremely friendly and helpful.

The dock hands were very helpful.The shower area needs an exhast fan and a shelf and hooks to hang your stuff. There is no where to put your things in the shower except on the sink or on the floor.

Brand new Marina. Two blocks on Yards waterfront walkway to Nats Stadium. Outstanding staff. Secure with dock gate code from Dockmaster . Wonderful floating docks. Easy approach in Anacostia R., DC. Plenty of depth. Only drawback is no toilets/showers til Fall 2017. Once they are up and operating, will be 5 stars. We will be back. Capt Rick McHarg, EAGLE ONE, Sea Ray 450 EB
