James Creek Marina
Washington, DC
Set at the confluence of the Potomac and Anacostia Rivers, James Creek Marina offers 297 wet slips for vessels up to 160+ feet (face dock to 300 ft) with floating docks, fuel, pump-out, and The Creek Bar in the heart of Washington, DC.
Marinas typically need to separate slip holder parking from day-visitor parking, trailer areas, launch ramps, and secure dock access points. Modern facilities use barrier gate systems to enforce these zones automatically — allowing permitted vehicles through via transponder or keycard while logging all access events.
