A local partner, left over from an age where relationships matter and trust comes foremost working with your mechanics. When looking for the true to their word experts who have had over 30 years getting boaters back on the water this is the go-to destination. When I’m out on the water I need to know my equipment is going to work the first time, that trust starts at the front counter at Washington Marina. I plan to be going back for years to come.

I had a beautiful time

Great view and parking

This is a great business. I would recommend it to a friend.

The parts department here is top notch. I have a somewhat uncommon engine in my boat, and some of the widely available parts listings online are incorrect for it. They are the only place that has managed to help sort this out and get me what I need year after year. Their customer service is excellent, and overall this is a huge asset to the boating community in the DC Metro area.

I rented a slip for the 4th of July fireworks and we had a wonderful experience at Washington Marina from the time we sign the contract with Susan and buying parts from the best Marina parts guys in the area. With the COVID and social distance my family was safe in the gated Mariana.

Top notch, family owned marina. Hard to find places like this anymore. Great parts & service, even better people.

Boat broke down Thursday. They overnighted the part and had me up and running next day. Service is impeccable and these guys really know their stuff! Pricing was also very reasonable. I will be doing continued business with them and will refer friends and highly recommend Washington marina. Thank you Bob and Jeff and the entire staff!

Ive left a 5 star in the past . This time only a 2 because when I order parts and Im told 2 or 3 days, it shouldnt take over a week . It wasnt like I ordered a hard to find part .

Nice marina. During nice day, it is a good place to walk around the wharf,.plenty of restaurants too.

A mighty fall of what once was a great asset to DC. In 2005 I bought a Ventura trailer from this marina, and over the years had brought my outboard regularly for service in. In early Spring 2017, I planned for the trailer (with boat) to go to a boat yard for the winter, so I went to my trailer dealer Washington Marina to ensure I would be ordering the correct hub bearing replacements. That would leave plenty of time for the bearing sets to arrive while the boat was in the water, the trailer empty, and replacement simple. Despite my inquiries, assurance was given they would call when the bearings arrived. In late November, I called once more only to find the bearings had been there for weeks, but they forgot to call. By then it was time to haul the boat. Spring 2018, the boat is launched, and now I find time to do inspect & replace the hub and bearings. In the course of which it becomes clear, the replacement bearing set was incorrect. To recount: Accepting that it would cost more, I went to my local marina mostly because they were my trailer dealer, and would remove the uncertainty of ordering online. I took the receipt and bearings (one unopened, the other of course opened for it was only in the act that one discovers that the parts were incorrect). In response, they accepted 0 responsibility, and offered nothing at all (I just wanted to swap for the correct ones). I knew Bob Stickell Jr. as honest, trustworthy, and warm. I dont know what happened to this marina, but would now recommend you never risk stepping inside.

Awesome parts department say dont have it they can get it quickly . So nice to have a place on the walk to buy parts and accessories while I am in Washington DC

They always find additional work that needs to be done and the invoice is always higher than the quote due to additional hours of labor. Performed additional work on my boat without authorization.

Friendly staff and good parts Dept with many things in stock! Mechanics are honest and good

I was approached by a very aggressive personnel staff after inadvertently parking at the marina. The female staff member approached my car window and made me feel very uncomfortable and threatened as I was visiting the area and unsure about parking policies. After explaining to the staff member my dilemma in parking incorrectly and trying to rectify the situation by leaving the area, the staff member barrage me with negativity and hostility. As I was putting my car in reverse to leave, the attendant continued to aggressively approach me as I politely made her aware that I was leaving, I was unsure of how else to best remediate the situation. Instead of calmly assisting me she continued to over exert her authority. I was astonished and dismayed by the lack of professionalism and civility. She would not give me a business card after she took a picture of my plate number. After her rude demeanor I am unsure what she will do with my information, given her hostility.I really encourage the Marina to train their staff on positive conflict resolution and general compassion. I’m sure such training will prevent situations like this from occurring.

I had a great time!! Wonderful experience!! First time I went on the Cherry Blossom Cruise and I will definitely go again!

Deceived my elderly parents on the out-the-door price of an outboard, and crushed my mother’s hand with an aggressive handshake after the sale. She was injured to the point where she had to see a doctor the following day.

Well while it looks good it just doesnt seem like the area required this much of a change. Its so overcrowded now and ... SMH

Convenient with a helpful Staff.

Very nice people but service is horrible. Lots of excuses but no results. Very limited parts inventory. All the traffic brought by the Wharf development makes getting here a real hassle. Every time it rains the docks are locked in with trees, tires and phone poles. Owners have little interest in running the business. They should have sold property when the Wharf redevelopment happened. Very bad place to dock your boat. Go elsewhere.

Old, run down and dirty. Expensive, no fuel, very end of No Wake zone. They try to deal with every brand of engine manufacturer yet have only a small selection of parts on hand and service is terrible. None of the technicians are factory trained but they will tell you they are and charge you factory trained prices for labor!!

Washington Marina has a great and helpful Staff. The parts department goes the extra mile to help the DIY boat owner. The floating docks are very nice and always clean.

Seafood galore and lots of atmosphere for a Sunday evening stroll.

A tiny, sleepy marina located next to the just as unimpressive Wharf. Theres very little parking spaces around here due to the highest zoning restrictions as geographically its part of the Tidal Basin ringed with national monuments. Most visitors pass breeze through to see the fishy-smelling Wharf next door. Nothing to see here folks, just a small private dock inaccessible to the public.

The whole area is renovated and vibrant with energy

Great place for fresh fish

The cherry blossoms were superb

Amazing Marine

Good

You wont know if youre in the right location, the boat wont leave when the email says, but youll have fun if you dont expect the world. Live a little.

Nice view and good food

Quick drive by of cherry blossoms in DC

Great seafood, but is a little crowded and not so clean.

Bass fishing is decent

Best spot for views

Nice ambiance but parking was a hassle and the food I bought was tasteless.
