Boater Reviews
We have kept our boat at Terry’s for 6 years so far. We like our covered slip with power and a hose close by. Great location!
We have our boat at Terry's Marina. Chris is very attentive, friendly, and always willing to help if we need something. Its quiet and very safe! I love this Marina!
I have been at Terrys Marina for about 6 years. Terrys sons Mike and Mark both were good to work with. Currently Chris is the main contact and is very attentive to his Customers. Could not be happier.
We have had our boat at Terry's Marina in a covered slip for about 5 years. Our dock is super convenient and Mike, who manages it is a great guy. Would love to see that main building become a restaurant....what a perfect location! Highly recommend
Overall Terry's Marina is a wonderful place but the owner was not. I came down to my boat to clean it up. Afterwards when I was done, my car battery went out and drained. I called a close friend of mine to help me jump start it and the owner was watching us jump start it, he walked past us while we did it. Right when we left, he rudely asked us to leave. The owner seemed to be intoxicated as well.
