The recent renovations at John Henry’s have transformed it into a spectacular place to dock. The marina slips are impressively reconfigured, providing ample space, making it easy to maneuver. The staff was genuinely welcoming, and while the store had limited offerings in October, I'm sure it gets busier during the summer months. Overall, it feels like a great place for boating enthusiasts, though the shop's selection could use some improvement.

Located in Pender Harbor, it has the advantage of being the only fuel dock in the area, which undoubtedly makes it a bustling spot in the summer.

I was really impressed by the recent renovations at John Henry's. The marina slips have been redesigned and they're so spacious, making docking so much easier. The staff was welcoming, and while the store had limited options in October, it was still a solid experience overall. Just note that it could be busy in the summer months due to the exclusive fuel dock.

The recent renovations at John Henry’s marina are truly impressive! The slips are spacious, making docking a breeze, and the staff were exceptionally welcoming during my visit. However, I did notice that the store was somewhat understocked in October, which might be a concern for some guests. Overall, it's a great spot for boat enthusiasts, especially in the summer.

The recent renovations at this resort are impressive, particularly with the reconfiguration of the marina slips which are now optimal for wider vessels. The friendly staff adds to the pleasant experience, although I did notice the store had limited options during my October visit. It's a fantastic spot with the only fuel dock in Pender Harbor, making it quite busy in the summer season.

I recently stayed at John Henry's after their renovations, and I must say, the improvements are impressive! The marina slips have been reconfigured to offer a lot more space, making it a breeze to dock. The staff were friendly and welcoming, which made my experience even better. However, I did notice that the on-site store had limited options during my October visit. Overall, it’s a fantastic spot, especially with the sole fuel dock in Pender Harbor, which must be a hub during the summer months.
