Georgetown Yacht Haven — Attraction in Middletown

After going through one of the most unsettling experiences as a boat owner, I cannot say enough about the kindness, professionalism, and true compassion shown to my family and me by Chris, the General Manager at Georgetown Yacht Haven. When our boat was vandalized at Skipjack Cove Marina, I was left feeling shaken, unsafe, and unsure of where to turn. In that moment of vulnerability, I reached out to Georgetown Yacht Haven—and Chris immediately showed up in a way that I will never forget. Without hesitation, he came over to Skipjack, reassured me, and personally helped me drive my boat over to Georgetown for safekeeping. That one gesture alone spoke volumes about his character and commitment to the boating community. Once we arrived at Georgetown, the difference was night and day. Chris’s calm presence, depth of knowledge, and ability to make people feel comfortable turned what had been a frightening situation into one where I felt completely at ease. He not only ensured that our boat was safe, but he made sure that we felt safe. His staff mirrored that same welcoming attitude, treating us with genuine kindness and respect from the very start. The slip holders at Georgetown also played a big role in helping us feel at home. Unlike the negative and hurtful experience, we had at Skipjack—where one slip holder told me the “bus” was at the end of the dock, and another said “our kind” was not welcome—at Georgetown there was none of that. Instead, we were embraced simply as fellow boaters. No labels, no judgments—just part of the boating family. That inclusivity meant more than words can ever truly express. My boat is now safe, sound, and running perfectly, but just as important, my family and I found a marina where we know we are welcome. Georgetown Yacht Haven has proven itself to be more than just a place to dock your boat—it is a safe haven where people look out for each other and where the leadership truly cares about the people they serve. Chris, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You turned a very dark and difficult experience into one where I felt supported, protected, and part of a community. You went above and beyond, and my family and I will always be grateful to you and the entire team at Georgetown Yacht Haven. If you are looking for a marina on the Sassafras River, do yourself and your family a favor—choose Georgetown Yacht Haven. It is exactly what a marina should be: a place of safety, professionalism, and...

STAY AWAY FROM THIS MARINA. I would give them negative stars but you can't post a review without a star. I was a slip holder (D-12) 2013 to 2017 . Marina is family owned. Ford Hall (2nd generation owner) stole my paid in full dockage fees and terminated my contract. Service department does not honor their estimates, inflates services without documentation and does not honor agreements. Marina refused to repair the damages the service department caused to my boat, then Ford Hall refused to launch my boat until I paid him in cash or bank check. Ford Hall also attempted to force me to sign a release that I wouldn't sue him. He tried to bribe my attorney with cash to get me to sign the release. I went elsewhere to have my boat properly repaired. Ford Hall likes to have "closed door meetings" so there are no witnesses to his tactics. Service department is incompetent. Ralph Hall will try to sell you services you don't need. All of the employees are nice people unfortunately Hall family "owns" them. Remember, there's not much going on in Georgetown. USE EXTREME CAUTION IF YOU DEAL WITH THESE PEOPLE ! READ all the fine print in any of their documents as this is how they cheat you ! Ralph Hall (3rd generation) got caught cheating on his wife who was the Marina President. Marina has filed for bankruptcy. Infrastructure is in disrepair. Kitty Knight house has been for sale since the Fall of 2016. Key employees have left. Contact me for further information. I have a file of documents and photographs which I am willing to share in hopes of helping others avoid the experiences I have had. I know their tactics and know how they operate. Once they have your boat on their property they OWN you and force you to comply with their...

The Place primarily because of its Management A slum burglarys drugs and filthy I didn't realize how nasty until checking out different marina. They run a deadly operation . Electric boxes lying on the docks the covered sheds core supports are not even connected to the pile heads so basically they are hanging from the roof structure not supporting it . The bathrooms and basically the entire facilities are deplorable. The two Managers TP and JN are not men they are not what I knew men to be .
