Medium-sized marina with multiple parallel docks full of boats, adjacent to a large striped asphalt parking lot containing numerous vehicles, and several buildings including a large warehouse.
McCuddy's Hayden Island Moorage is a marina situated on Hayden Island in the Columbia River, just north of Portland, Oregon, in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States. This location places it along the navigable waters of the Columbia River, which flows westward to meet the Pacific Ocean, offering access to both riverine and coastal boating opportunities. It primarily serves recreational boaters exploring the Columbia River and its surrounding waterways in the Portland area.
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.
