Love it. Came all the way from Arizona. The small oysters are the best.Crabbing was great fun, but caught 0 male crabs both times. My kids loved renting the boat.

Absolutely love this place. Staff is friendly, professional and very helpful. This was our second visit and we plan on camping and crabbing every year.

I don’t understand why this place not having more reviews. They have live dungeons crabs, clams and oysters steam in front of you. Price reasonable and just wonderful local place!

Their crab, oysters, and clams are always good. My family and I go here for our yearly camping trip. We come from Washington. We have been visiting when Kelly was still the owner. We really wish he still owned and ran the place. It was so much better. The crabbing lately hasn't been the greatest. The last two times we came here we didn't catch much, and this recent time we didn't get any keepers. So we ended up buying crab and oysters instead. The staff is always friendly and the place is a good location. Campsites are a bit close but still manage a little privacy. They have showers and bathrooms, as well as a nice gift shop that they've recently expanded w/ lots of cute hoodies/tees/crew necks. Tables for people to eat, and you can also crab off of the dock without having to pay 120 for the boat. Great place to check out at least once. Fun especially for the kids.

Great crab. They charge you for the butter and lemon, though. Should be included in the price of the crab.

Fun place to stay! You can rent crab nets to fish for crab right off the docks or rent a boat. Saw 4 otters swimming right off shore. Stayed two nights, but you don't need to camp to buy or catch crab. Although there is noise from the street above the marina, it's not bad and subsides in the evening. Plenty of coin op showers that are open 24/7 ($1.5/5 min).

The seafood prices are quite reasonable. Four of us split 4 crabs, a dozen oysters and a dozen clams for around $100. These are the same crabs you can snag right off the dock in front of you, for a fee I'm sure. Although the food itself is reasonably priced, they charge you for everything else. Sauces. Seasoning. Lemons. The lady behind the counter was pretty rude when informing me of this. I'm surprised they don't charge for napkins and plasticware. There are a few picnic tables where you can stay and eat, including a covered area with a bonfire and an open area by the water with nice views. There is no indoor seating.Plenty of parking.

Super sad it's just not the same fun feeling as it used to be when Kelly owned it. I have to say customer service has really down. So very sad because it's a go to place 3 to 4 times a year when we fly in and I tell everybody about it. Looks like we may be looking for a new place to be the cool place

Such a fun experience! Beautiful spot to sit at the picnic tables and the seafood was so good and so fresh. Cooked on the spot. There was a shop where you could go inside and buy butter to heat up in the microwave or lemons or cocktail sauce. Utensils were available and some additional hot sauces etc were free
I'm new from California, and an avid kayak fisherman. I've been here a few times, and all I can say is, this place is just all around great! The owner and staff are welcoming, really nice, and helpful. Call them and they are happy to provide more information prior to your trip. They have EVERYTHING you need here. The store has everything you need for crabbing, clothes in case you need it, souvenirs, and plenty of drinks and snacks.I've seen many couples and families with kids having so much fun crabbing on the dock or on one of their boats, especially the kids. This, in itself, is a priceless experience and one to remember! I only wish the launch fee for kayaks is a different price than boats, which is typically hand-launched without the need of a vehicle. But regardless, this place brings so much excitement, good food, and fun for the family and friends!I'll be back for sure!

Low key tourist trap, but honestly we had a great time here. We opted for dock crabbing instead of getting a boat. We bought our crabbing license there too as well instead of going through and making an online account. You only need the license if you are going to touch the crab. We caught a lot but they were all female crabs or too small, so we had to throw it back in. We ended up ordering crabs at the dock, which they boiled in salt water, but we of course expected to bring some home. It's great that they sell $4 beers there too so you can just kick back and hang out by the dock or fire pit. Unfortunately you have to pay for extra bait, wood for the fire pits, and even butter. Even though we literally caught no viable crabs, we had an excellent day trip out here! I'm sure there are other places like this, but this was the easiest website to navigate and understand and it was the cheapest!

August 6-8th: I thought I wrote a review but am not seeing it here. For this reason this is being written months later.I went once last year and the owner was just amazing and very visible the entire time I was there. This year, unbeknownst to me, the owners had changed. You could tell. When I arrived, the office was closed and no one greeted us. We were supposed to have the end spots but they were all taken when we arrived. I saw 2 open spots side by side and since my friend had reserved a spot, as well, I knew that these were ours. I pretty much set up and got ourselves situation with no one greeting us. I just keep stressing the not being greeted because last time the owner was everywhere.It turned out that there was a large party for about 4 spots which is probably the reason they pushed us over. I do wish they had honored my request since I did call almost a year in advance.The people at the part were up late but they quieted down around 11PM or so. They invited us over which I thought was a good touch (so we wouldn't complain). One of the workers went over and asked them to quiet down and reminded them to keep it quiet so that the owners did not come out.We went crabbing the next day and it was a blast! That part of the place had not changed. It was easy to reserve our boat and the employees were helpful. We caught about 5 crabs so that was pretty good. It was good to see the reviews that they are all positives so after we left, it looks like everything was still great and dandy. I was to the point where I was going to try a different place next year but will give them another shot. I just want that at home welcoming feel that I felt last year.
