I'm currently looking to purchase a new to me boat that I'll probably want to keep in the water at a marina. I have never rented a slip before. I prefer one of the Portage marinas mainly for location. Does anyone have any pros or cons for any of the marinas there? Any tips for a newbie?  TIA

I've been at Marina Shores for 13 years. We really like it there. The docks are nice and wide that makes it easier for docking. There's a restaurant, pool, laundry facility and even a workout facility. A ship store and fish cleaning station too. Fuel dock is there and pump outs are free. The charter boats are there along the G-wall.

I have been over at the Portage city marina for approx 10yrs. now. Have had good experience there. All depends on what your looking for. There is a new cleaning station that has gone in and this spring they will have a grand opening for it. I don't think there is going to be any cost to use it. Barb Lusco manages the marina and is very good at her job.The bath houses are always kept in good shape. It is nice sometimes to get off the boat and take a shower before heading home.

Thanks for the reply. I am leaning towards the Portage marina. Marina Shores sure looks nice, but I probably wouldn't use half of the amenities. It's good to know they're installing a fish cleaning station.
