Reefpoint Marina

An Ultimate Summer Boating Destination on Lake Michigan

Published: Saturday, March 27, 2021

Located between Chicago and Milwaukee, Reefpoint Marina in Racine, Wisconsin, features an endless array of fun and entertainment for the entire boating family. Referred to as the gem on Lake Michigan time and time again, the marina is a beautifully protected, deep-harbor marina that continues to be called a homeport to many boaters from across the Country, and even internationally.  

Specializing in offering a resort-style atmosphere, boaters enjoy the outdoor heated pool and hot tubs at Reefpoint Marina—even on brisk midwest summer evenings. Besides the aquatic amenities offered, s'mores are made to perfection with marshmallows toasted and chocolate melted while gathered around the cozy fire pits that surround the docks. Those wanting to indulge in delicious, hand-scooped ice cream need to look no further than the expanded onsite Anchors Away Ship Store. Offering everything from concessions to frozen margaritas to boutique items such as hats, nautical chic clothing, shoes, sandals, sun wear, handbags, pool toys—everything that screams summer boating fun! This is not to forget the “usuals”: beer, wine, pizza, fresh bakery, coffee bar, cigars, dog treats, boating supplies, and all the other goodies that make up a convenient onsite ship store are available here, too. 

Besides the foodie items inside the Anchors Away Ship Store to enjoy, the boaters of Reefpoint Marina also have the convenience of enjoying the amazing on-site full service bar and restaurant, The Reefpoint Brew House. The restaurant features outstanding smoked meats, specialty tap beers, and an abundance of classic American dishes. Featuring live entertainment every weekend during the boating season on their outside patio, boaters truly enjoy the convenience of summer evenings just steps from their vessels. For large parties, the Reefpoint Brew House also has a well-equipped, beautiful banquet room that can accommodate groups of over 100! Summer weekend nights are booked up fast for this amazing room though, so interested parties must act quickly to reserve.

Boating in Racine, out of Reefpoint Marina, is outstanding as well. Fishing is abundant and charters enjoy the ease of finding those big catches not too far from shore. Power boaters also enjoy the ease of maneuvering through the marina to Lake Michigan, and cruising to an amazing nearby spot referred to as the Cove. This spot is perfect for anchoring as it’s in a beautifully protected swimming area with a sandy bottom. This secret spot draws in boats of every size, each rafting off and enjoying an afternoon of fun in the sun.
