First time staying here in our new to us boat on her Maiden voyage home. Everyone was very helpful and nice. The marina manager and his assistance help us with our lines and gave us great restaurant recommendations. The pool was a little chilly but after a day replacing two batteries it felt good. We will be back for sure!

Z's is the place to be!
Jim goes above and beyond for his customers, like a superhero in a cape! The amenities are top-notch. With floating docks that offer safe, dependable power, along with spotless bathrooms and coffee that kicks you awake faster than a surprise party! We're absolutely thrilled to be slip holders here

We had an excellent experience during our stay at Safe Harbor Zahnisers last week. Dave, the Dockmaster and his staff made it all possible from the time we made the reservation to the docking assistance which made our docking as simple as you can get anywhere. Thank you Dave and your staff for providing a great time during our stay!

Dock Master David and his dock team were exceptional in ensuring slip/mooring availability and assisting boat arrivals for our Stingray Point Cruising Group during Memorial Day weekend. They have wonderful marina staff who are a tremendous help to cruising sailors. The marina grounds and docks are impeccable!

Great marina! Our favorite so far. Beautiful setting with great staff. Jim is an excellent manager of this marina. We needed a jump on our dinghy and someone came right out to help. Bikes for riding into town, laundry facilities, and a highly rated restaurant right at the marina. Can't leave a review for that as it is closed on Mondays and Tuesdays right now. This was a perfect stop on our Great Loop journey.

AMAZING! Traveling The Great Loop-we’ve gone 6,000 miles and Safe Harbor Zahnisers is the best marina yet!! It starts with the fabulous staff, impeccable grounds, gorgeous bath house and laundry. We loved the free bikes, close to the adorable Maritime Museum and Pier. We didn’t eat at La Vela they were closed when we were there-it has an excellent reputation! Fantastic experience.

We currently live on our sailboat and the marina/staff have been wonderful. If a problem arises they work to make it right.

30% more expensive after Safe Harbor takeover, I hope the workers are getting some of that. The dinghy docks need to be repaired; simple couple of cleats and a piece of line would work. The overhaul of the restrooms is beautiful but unnecessary as they were already great. The loss of the ships store is sad, and no ice because "season is over" is short-sighted. Still a great marina with excellent staffing!

As a doordash driver, GrubHub and Instacart me and many of my friends talk openly about what a nightmare this place is to deliver to. Kim in 245 was defensive, demanding and most very disrespectful. They bait drivers with high tips and then penalize them if they can't get one or two items on the list. Which is a store's fault not the drivers. I personally have never delivered an order here which is more than 15 times when I haven't had to wait on somebody at the dock. Go back and forth with them over text with their attitude. I personally have banned everyone I've ever delivered to and many of my friends and I are filing official claims with instacart and GrubHub, especially to try to get people Here's accounts deactivated for repeatedly being disrespectful, unsafe and tip. Baiting, as well as making complaints about drivers that aren't true and saying they'd haven't received food and goods that they have. I will be aggressively pursuing any ways that I can hold the residents of this neighborhood accountable to try to keep them from taking advantage of any of my fellow drivers. you expect this with high crime and underprivileged areas? But why are the residents here as concerns to the services they use acting like foul mouth children, and tip bating.

We spent three months at Safe Harbor Zahnisers marina in Solomons, MD from mid-July through mid-October 2023. We had planned for these three months of down time to make a couple trips away from the boat and to do some projects on the boat. We found SH Zahnisers earlier in the summer when we were cruising north toward Annapolis. On our first visit we tied off to one of their mooring balls and used their facilities for a week. We found the marina to be absolutely perfect on our first visit and we decided to get a slip for our three months of down time. The facilities at the marina are second to none based on our experience cruising from Mobile, AL down around the Florida Keys, over to the Bahamas and then up the east coast to Chesapeake Bay. They offer seven individual bathrooms in the Bath House, each with a newly renovated private shower, toilet, and sink, as well as a laundry room with 3 large washing machines, 3 large dryers and a nice folding table. They also offer a men’s and women’s communal bathrooms near the pool, each having several toilets and a shower. The bathrooms are always maintained in impeccable condition. The pool and pool bar are very nice and was a great meeting place in the afternoon with other cruisers and locals alike. There is also a very nice captain’s lounge with a large screen TV and many books on the shelf for sharing with other boaters. They also have an on-site yard that can perform haul outs and other dockside work you may need done. They have a very good fleet of bicycles you can use to ride into town or up the road to West Marine, hardware stores and grocery stores. They also offer a shuttle van that will run you to any location in the local area and come back to pick you up when you are done (it runs three times daily, including weekends). The staff is exceptionally friendly and helpful. Jim, the general manager runs the marina exceptionally well and Dave the dockmaster is always ready to help handle lines with his staff when you come and go. Jasmine, the front desk customer relations rep is excellent, always in a happy mood and very helpful with anything you may need. The location also offers very good protection from any storms and historically tropical storms or hurricanes rarely hit the area with much force. Overall, this was the best marina we have stopped in on our journeys so far and while we plan to sail south this winter and into next summer we will certainly return to this marina one day.
