Swing Room: sufficient room for vessels as large as 45 feet
Foul Weather Shelter: Very good; only unusually strong northern winds will give any sort of problem
Dinghy Dock Access: dinghies can be landed at a landscaped park and set of launching ramps on the river’s southerly banks, south of the 7-foot swing bridge
Nearby Provisioning: One Stop Grille (126 Grubb Street, 252-426-5081) is found within walking distance of the launch ramps/riverside part. This establishment is what might be accurately described as an “enhanced convenience store.” There’s plenty in the way of drinks and snacks, but don’t look for fresh produce or meats.
Pet Friendly: pets can be taken ashore at the landscaped park and set of launching ramps on the river’s southerly banks, south of the 7-foot swing bridge
