really loved the whole facility. dock hands (Gibby) were great. generally lots of nice and helpful people around and a nice clean marina area (slips). the grounds and museum is much more than i expected; full of exhibits and information. love the working shops. didnt care for the American Cruise Lines ship that came in but not much to do about that. all in all, a 5- star and i can highly recommend joining and staying....i will come back with more time to spend. St michaels is pretty cool too, though maybe too many tourists, but great restaurants.

Always great to stay at CBMM. Grounds are phenomenal and like the new visitor center. Josh does a great job leading the marina. St Michael's has a lot to offer everyone. Great food, small town shops

Very helpful, friendly CBMM dockmaster & museum staff. Clean and functional facilities.

by Scott V. - Verified user on Oct 20, 2025
Overall an excellent stay. The Dockmaster Gibby was there (after hours) for our arrival, and got us all squared away with lines, and power and briefed us on showers, restrooms, etc. Our slip was in a good location for ingress/egress, and close to The Crab Claw. We will definitely be back soon! A special thanks to ?Gibby!

by Terry M. - Verified user on Oct 19, 2025
Great location. The dock staff were friendly, and a big help, especially pushing off in heavy winds in a tight space

by Jerry C. - Verified user on Oct 19, 2025
Great dock hands, great venue, nice views, quiet

by Bruce O. - Verified user on Oct 18, 2025
Excellent as always! Dock master Josh is always on hand to assist and we are happy to support the museum.

The staff was incredibly helpful. Hats off to dock master Gio. A King tide prevented my disabled wife from getting back aboard. Due to the extreme height of the tide neither the two or 3 step ladder provide the lift she needed. Gio told us to stand by. A few minutes later he and another staff member returned with a multi step wooden platform which more than solved the problem. It was this above and beyond effort that impressed us and deserves recognition.
