Whitehall Marina

The term «just good people» was invented here. They are kind, generous and have the best prices anywhere. Just north of lock 12 on the Champlain Canal in Whitehall NY, this place is re-​building after transitioning from a family-​owned establishment for many generations to a local-​owned place with the same character. An example is they’re keeping the price of diesel fuel at least $ 1 below normal prices so they can share the wealth with both local & transient customers. Who does that? There are plenty of ways to build a following but generosity is seldom the one most businesses choose these days. Justin is a gift to this marina. For a nominal fee, he drove me back to my vehicle & boat trailer 70 miles south so I could accomplish a 1-​way canal trip & not have to go thru 11 southbound locks on the same route I just traveled for two days. There’s not enough space here to describe how great these guys are. The marina has gas, a transient dock, showers, laundry, a bar & tavern, canvas guy, engine repair, etc. Also the marina is a 1 mile walk to Cumberland Farms, groceries and CVS pharmacy thru a cute Americana town.
