Our Story

Creekside is a membership organization located on Bradley Creek in Wilmington NC. Incorporated in 1999, with 6 + acres of marine storage, a ships store that is open to the public, marine detailing and repair services & member clubhouse with ample restroom and showers. Creekside has over a 1,000 feet of floating docks offering marine gas to our members and the public. It is not however a transient destination. Bradley Creek is a quiet harbor with adequate water depth for all vessels on mean low tide and the facility is located within a no wake zone offering protection for mooring for vessels. Minutes from the Intracoastal waterway and a quick trip to Masonboro Inlet for ocean access. 

There is a waiting list for the occasional vacancies to lease or purchase boat storage space from 18' to 30+' LOA, coordinated through GM Howard Stanley on all transactions. Members are able to call ahead or use the online app to request boat launches to the docks. For more information contact Creekside's General Manager, Howard Stanley

Creekside is a 100% dry storage marina

offering privately owned slips that can accommodate vessels up to 30+ feet in length. We have both interior and exterior slips and operate multiple fork lifts to safely transfer vessels to and from the water in a timely matter so your vessel is ready for you when you need it. Dry storage significantly prolongs the life of your vessel by limiting salt water exposure and our operators and staff are experienced, friendly and well trained. We have an active purchase program operated by the manager Howard Stanley and occasionally there are slips available for rent. Call today for more information!
