Believe Midway Marina is falling into disrepair. We stayed here thinking the number 2 marina would try harder. Pool was a nice feature for a hot September day. No fuel and we understand from locals this is not rare these days. Dockmaster confirmed this. Restrooms clean and air conditioned. Certainly a less crowded marina and I would stop again but a little disappointed as I recall what it use to be 20 years ago.

good fuel stop. staff helpful.
As promised we stopped off at Midway Marina again on our way back North. We are just as impressed as we were last fall. The dinner was wonderful. A labor of love and you can taste it in every bite. Unfortunately the cable TV was not working. It was a Sunday night and we had been looking forward to Desperate Housewives. The owner immediately offered us a key to one of the Motel rooms so we could watch it. He goes out of his way to make sure his customers are happy. Thanks Terry!!!! We will be back.
We have stayed at both Midway and Coinjack and had dinners at both. Our experience has been great at Midway in that last spring we got there one day that Crabbies was not open. A few boats had arrived and the dockmaster came around asking if we would go if it was open. Well a number of couples said yes and they opened the restaurant and served us a wonderful meal. That is the great service all of you are talking about. Remember that Jeff????

Just returned from a dinner at Crabbies. It was delicious and the service was wonderful. This time we decided to give Midway Marina a try. I would urge everyone to do the same. The people here are very friendly and helpful and Crabbies Restaurant makes Coinjock look like a greasy spoon. We will definately return and we hope you will too.

I would like to thank everyone at Midway Marina for all of their help and encourage everyone to stop in. We lost a transmission on our 36Trojan and had to turn back to a marina. It was our good fortune to choose Midway Marina. The owner and staff at Midway not only helped us find a great mechanic but also put us up in a slip until the repairs were finished! Several times they grilled and invited us to join them. They ran us to town for supplies, loaned us their computer and overall treated us like old friends. On top of all this we found the best fuel prices around as well as great food at the restaurant next door! Many thanks to everyone at Midway Marina for turning this into a wonderful experience.

After getting “roughed up” in an Albemarle crossing, we decided to treat ourselves to a slip and dinner. We were greeted and assisted in docking by a very friendly dockmaster and his really cute dog.
We went to Crabbies for dinner. Considering the place wasn’t crowded, the service was a little slow. But in their favor, the Yuengling was cold and the food was great.
Only thing that topped that was knowing we were only 50 miles from getting home.

We were traveling South in a sailboat; stayed at Midway Marina which was fine; friendly, rest room / shower clean and reasonable. Had lunch at Crabbies and it was good; friends picked us up for dinner at Coinjock Marina famed for their prime rib. It was very good but not to make a special trip for. Enjoyed watching the mega – yachts docking there

COINJOCK (8/26). Midway Marina is still our favorite and Crabby’s is a good place to recover from all manner of tense moments.

Two thunbs up for Midway Marina in Coinjock who were booked when I called in the morning but took my number just in case… they did call us just as we had passed by. nice service, saved us crossing the Albemarle in 20/25kts winds.
