The marina part is nice. We pull up and dock the boat in guest moorage. We had a rough experience in the restaurant though. There were a cat and dog walking around. As we are eating, the dog walks up and begs for food. The French fries were clearly not fresh and seemed microwaved from frozen state—the outside was warm but the inside was cold. We all felt weird after eating the food and a couple hours later got sick. We go outside and when the kids play on the sandy beach, the dog from inside who was begging for food came over and pees next to the kids in the sand they’re playing in. The food took 30+ minutes to prepare and we were the only people there. The place was not clean. I’m not sure how it passes the health department. The location and concept of venue for band in summer would earn this a higher score but the nausea I feel thinking of the uncleanliness and animal fur in the food keep it a 1 star.
Spend the day at Boston Harbor,they have a bunch of different rentals to play in the water.Sit and enjoy the views, and get a bite to eat. Small little store. Good parking and you can launch your own boat also if you want.
Be safe out in the ocean,don't leave a track and have a great afternoon.
Update: on top of our bad experience with kayaks advanced reservation the business is lying in their response below, very unfortunate... They did not explain that tandem kayaks are not designed to carry kids nor over the phone or in person (I hear it for the first time now... and I wonder why? Eddyline tandem can totally carry kids on the front (11 and 8 yo that also paddle). Never had an issue with that. They told me once we arrived they only had singles (after I asked to reserve 2 doubles over the phone and got confirmation a day before) and that singles cannot carry an adult+kid. Also sit-on-top are cheaper if you look at their site.
Please be aware they do not have tandem sit in kayaks even though they are advertised on their site. I reserved over the phone two sit-inside double kayaks (advertised as Sit Inside (Eddyline) kayak) a day before our overnight trip (when I called I explained that we need two for 4 people - 2 adults+2 kids) but when we came the next day they didn't have them, at all. They told me the only one double kayak got damaged in the beginning of the summer and is not rentable. We spent almost 3 hours coming to the marina from the north and we were upset to learn my reservation was messed up... So they offered to take two sit on top kayaks instead but they were much slower and we had trouble getting our stuff safely and dry to the camping area... Not to mention they didn't give us any refund even sit on top kayaks are cheaper to rent (I asked but was said it's about the same). So they messed up our advance reservation and we even had to overpay! Do not recommend this marina for rentals.
Love it here!
Don't allow any fishing on the peer. Ruined my day. Only peer in Olympia without contaminated water. Doesn't seem reasonable
I’ve live in the Olympia area my whole life and have never been to Boston Harbor until now. I only got food so I can’t speak to the other stuff. The burger and fries were $17+tip. I got a bacon burger. The burger didn’t have much flavor. It came with onions that did very little and the bacon didn’t add much either. It’s a solid patty though. I don’t know the weight. The menu has other foods too. The fries were light and I got a lot. It was cool to sit and eat and watch the water and boats.
We love taking our boat here and hanging out! Cold beer and a great store! Food is VERY greasy but can’t complain about a place like this❤️
love this place! Trivia is super fun!
Olympia best kept secret for Fish and chips and the best tarter sauce!
Had a blast making wreaths with Nina. Beautiful greens and easy to make wreaths!

Needed fuel and I rushed from Dinner to get there before they closed. They wouldn't help or sell me any because they were short on staff.I told them I wouldn't make it home and it was an emergency and no luck. Bye , Bye Business.
Love this place!!! Food is fantastic, beautiful scenery, and kayaking is the best!!!!!
We love this place and have driven out several times this summer. Nice people working the restaurant and store. The restaurant is an ok spot, but our French fries are often cold. We love the self serve soft serve, and obviously sitting on their beach and playing in the water is excellent fun!
This is a hidden gem. Great food friendly staff
