"Great stop for Loopers! Marina basin is calm. We watched 6- to 9-footers breaking over the outer basin walls but slept great at our slip! Staff was accommodating and VERY helpful in planning our trip down the Chicago Sanitary and Ship Canal. SHORT walk to Chicago boat tours and CTA bus stop. Restaurants & shopping nearby. NEW docks, pump out, and a beautiful Captain’s Lounge that was great for Docktails. They generously gave an AGLCA discount for our week+ stay." -Kim "Located adjacent to Navy Pier in downtown Chicago, it’s a fun place to be. Navy Pier is a popular location with dozens of restaurants and shops, plus tourist attractions such as the giant Ferris wheel and other rides. The marina, directly adjacent to a major tourist attraction, has excellent security. In doing the Loop, there are just a few “must stop” places. Liberty Landing in New York, is one of them. Navy Pier [Marina], in Chicago… is the other one." -Paul "Everyone was so nice and accommodating! Docks are beautiful! Really nice boaters lounge for docktails. Very convenient to everything." -Candace “Navy Pier Marina was amazing. A+ for brand-new floating docks, easy to tie up, lots of room, quick access to Navy Pier and sightseeing, secure and safe marina with locked gates and security cameras. The friendliest and most helpful staff! Same pricing as other area marinas that are usually booked and older. A must stay!” -Mark “Beautiful facility and wide stable docks with everything needed. The floating building is beautiful and has a great boaters' lounge, laundry facility, deck, etc. The location is perfect, and a few bumps are worth the cost of admission. This place is built to last!” -Adam "Beautiful, quiet marina close to everything in Chicago. The marina people were very helpful with everything from docking our boat to finding a good restaurant. Beautiful clean bathrooms."
 -Julia “Is there a class higher than first? If so, this marina deserves it... When we arrived, we were greeted by friendly and knowledgeable dockhands. They bent over backwards with lines, power, and water. The docks are first-class. Top of the line. Security is excellent... Management was very helpful. Even gave me some crucial weather info. Finally, the restaurants give you a 20% discount as a Dockwa/marina guest... Give this place a chance to impress you, too.” -James “We had a fantastic time. Stayed 3 nights. Facilities were excellent, and the always-available dock hands/staff were friendly and capable! Wi-Fi worked well. Marina was pretty busy due to the boat show, but was still quiet and secure. Can't beat the location and views. We will definitely be coming back!” -Dave "Well-maintained facility with good access to the city and the Navy Pier offerings. Thanks for everything you did to make our stay comfortable!"
 -Amy “Wonderful marina! Of all the Chicago area marinas, this was by far the best and safest feeling. Loved our visit and will for sure be back.” -Jonathan “Very new facility, with still relatively low occupancy. Well-built dockage, extremely nice support facilities, attentive staff, and effective security. Convenient to Chicago proper and the offerings of Navy Pier.” -John SEE WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING Testimonials
