“Seriously, every tine we come here we can't help thinking about just moving to Jacksonville and keeping our boat here full time. They have a bargain weekly rate and allow you to split it so you can stay a few days, head up the St Johns River and then finish your week on the way back. The staff is friendly and professional, the docks and facilities are first rate and spotless, there's a nice pool, hot tub, captain's lounge, free laundry and card access to everything. It's a four block walk to a shopping center with a Publix, CVS, restaurants and West Marine. The marina even threw a party for Memorial Day with burgers, hot dogs and drinks including wine and beer.“

“We spent nine months here and were very pleased with the location and staff. Marina is 25 miles up the St. Johns River and safe from storm surge. Facilities are great with secure docks, clubhouse and free laundry! Everyone on the staff is top notch and very attentive to boater needs. Their marina activities include great parties and frequent free breakfasts. I will use this place again and heartily recommend it.“

“We came here 10 days ago so we could have some service done on our boat by the folks at Lambs Yacht Center. We moved to Lambs for two days and then returned. This marina and its staff deserve all the accolades given by other reviews. The place is spotless, well maintained and the staff couldn't be nicer or more accommodating. So much is available within walking distance or by the available loaner bikes. The free laundry, swimming pool and spa are just icing on the cake. We are taking advantage of their "split month" program and will be looking forward to seeing them in the fall as we move south.“

“Hands down, the best! The quality of the facility is second only to the friendliness and expertise of the staff. Complimentary ice, grills, grilling tools, pool, spa, and a magnificent captain's lounge is readily available. Stores, including a Publix is within a few blocks. Originally I was slated for a one-night stay. It was so pleasant I stayed for two!“

“Wow! It really is 5 Star! After doing our AC-homework last night looking for today's anchorage, we decided we really Had to check-out Ortega Landing Marina to see if it really IS that nice. It is! (Frankly we've never seen a marina this nice!) After a tough nine miles up from NAS JAX, we put in to OLM, and were met by Bruce, the harbormaster. Never mind that we're on a 23' Cape Cruiser; they treated us like royalty. Very friendly folks. They have everything but fuel. Bruce referred us to Lamb's about 0.5 miles further up the Ortega River. No food vendors or shopping onsite, but they give you a local map with easily reached businesses (including a West Marine).
Gotta run ... time to check out the pool...and yes, their "First and 50" deal is real.“

“By far the best marina we have ever been in! We are a 23 ft pocket yacht and have cruised over 8000 nm (completed the loop in 2008) and this is by far the nicest marina we have been in. They charge by the foot and treat everyone the same! Everyone was so friendly there and the services? What more could you ask for! I highly recommend this marina and will probably be back again ourselves.“
