Ive known the owners, the High family, since the 1980s, and they are wonderful people! They make you feel like part of their family. They are very kind, and extremely fair in all their dealings. I have the highest respect and regards for these folks! As Ive already mentioned, they are wonderful people!!!

Had my brand new boat there last year in the high and dry. Every time they put my 2019 boat in the water they damaged it. By the third time it was put in the water, the rear was sinking because they had punctured the pontoons. I had to have new pontoons put on my brand new boat. The owner said he would try to have some one patch it which is unacceptable when the damage was done after the third time using a boat. Who wants a patch job on a new boat? I ended up call my insurance company to have it fixed. I WOULD NOT PUT YOUR BOAT HERE!

Low key, easy vibes marina. Jimmy, the owner, and his staff are always quick and attentive. They know the bay and hot spots. They also know boats so helpful with maintenance. Love using our boat out of here.

Took my two children boating for the first time. Ages 3 and 8, Jim and JC were absolutely wonderful and knew all the best places to take my kids. A wonderful memory for my family. I am so thankful to have found such a wonderful, family friendly place. We will be back.

I go back when Bob Plant and than the current group ran it. Simply said, probably the worst marina on the Chesapeake Bay. I would encourage anyone considering to do business, go else where. Remember, you were warned.

Stand Up Paddle boarding was a lot of fun! They let us take it out for as long as we wanted because it was on a day that wasnt busy.

Amazing marina! My husband works there and we have a slip. The owners are amazing people, the marina has an atmosphere that ive never seen anywhere else. Theres so much to do between MRSUP and Tiki Toon rentals, you dont have to own a boat to have fun. You wont find better people to be around!!

I am in the process of buying a boat from Baltimore boating Center and all I can say is very friendly staff and lift rates seem to be very very reasonable. I will update this post after all is said and done.

Im new to boating, so my marina knowledge is limited, however since my inception into Boating, Ive been dealing with the Baltimore Boating Center. I purchased my boat with BBC and Mrs. Brenda made the entire process stress free. Wish buying a house was as stress free as buying a boat at BBC. I bought there, so I decided to stay there. BBC will give you 20% off their entire slip fee for the year which included 30W electricity for boat, water, Wi Fi, and winter storage as well as close to $150-$200 in rebates for their store and service depts. Marina is secured during off hours allowing entry only by access card or code. ump out service provided, rack service for smaller boats and since it is family owned and operated, they are ALWAYS a friendly bunch. Slim will keep your boat in top shape if his services are needed to repair your boat and Joe provides the boat detailing services. Everyone at the pier will quickly bring you in like family and help acclimate you to the area, provide tips and a great time when you decide not to take the boat out. LOCATION is awesome as it lends itself to be within short distance to many boating hotspots in the area like Hart-Miller Island, Fairlee Creek, Inner Harbor and many more. Driving to it is just as simple with easy access by major highways such as I-95, I-695 and 702 and BCC is in close proximity to Walmart, Home Depot, Sams Club, Food Lion and other useful establishments that offer libations and usual necessary items such as ice, bait, ect.Why the four stars? Wi-Fi is mediocre but at no fault of BBC. I think the area and the provider are to blame for that... (Comcast talks a good game to real you in, but never delivers) The wood planks on the dock are in dire need of upgrading. Warning, No bare feet as they are surely to get a splint or two as we all quickly learned. Parking is sufficient, however due to Mr. Sups paddle boarding being on site as well, there is an over-whelming influx of vehicles during the weekends, which gets aggravating when you are trying to park and unload. If you are looking for golfing greens, entertaining playgrounds for the kids, pools with restaurants and bars, BBC is not it.If you are looking for all the above amenities described in my first paragraph and can deal with the minor negatives described in my second paragraph, BBC family will ensure their marina is a home away from home.disclaimer:No I do not hold stock, nor have I received any special treatment or services, nor am I a member of BBC staff that may benefit from any reviews posted on this site or any other site as a means to generate interest or business. The above review is the opinion of a satisfied customer of The Baltimore Boating Center. See you in the water!
