About Us
We love boating. We love the culture, the experience, and the pride that comes with maintaining a boat. When you are a part of Chester Point Marina you are one of the family. This is why we offer services to make sure your needs are taken care of including year round solutions for slips, storage, and service.
Beyond our services, take advantage of our beautiful riverside picnic areas and in-ground pool while being right on the river. We hope you’ll meet the rest of your Chester Point family and bring the kids to start off the season with the Annual Kids Fishing Derby followed by a variety of events including our Customer Appreciation Picnic and Jazz Nights.

Gillette Castle
It looks like a medieval fortress, but a step inside the stone castle reveals the built-in couches, table trackway, and woodcarvings that all point to the creative genius that was William Gillette.
