| Slip
Customers- A few nice notes that we've received... |
- This first class shipyard offers a complete shipstore
and a full service marina. This is one of the finest facilities
you will ever visit. (International
Mumm 30 Organization)
- "Eldean's Staff, Please accept our little gift
of home made Egg Rolls. Just a simple gesture for making
last summer one of our BEST summers we've had. Thanks
for the memories! Len, Christie and Kids" (B-19)
- "My wife and I so enjoyed our stay at Eldean Shipyard
last summer, that we recommended that the Cruising Fleet
of the Milwaukee Yacht Club make your place our destination
this coming summer." -Dean
- "This entire summer has been a terrific boating
experience. We have been continually impressed with your
staff, facility and the community of boaters. Your entire
family should be very proud of the reputation and facility
you have developed. We will leave the boat here this winter
and be back next summer!" (C-39)
- "The marina is top notch in terms of service, cleanliness
and esthetics. You have great taste in architecture, and
the flowers and other landscaping are beautiful! ...Sunday's
picnic/party was a lot of fun. We appreciate all the hard
work that you and your staff put into this event. It helps
give the marina a stronger sense of community. ...Brandon
(The Shipstore Manager) has been especially helpful to
us as we rigged a spinnaker for our boat. All of your
Shipstore staff have been very pleasant to work with."
(D-38)
- "July 10 we leave for Holland, with flat seas and
no wind since we arrived in Michigan. Holland is on Lake
Macatawa and we stayed at Eldean Shipyard Marina. It has
excellent restaurant, pool, hot tub, the cleanest showers/rest
rooms on the lake and a nice ships store. The best marina
on the lake!!!" (Verbraken
-web blog)
- "Last week my wife and I had occasion to vacation
with friends above their sailboat at your facility. While
I have bee too many Boat Clubs, Marinas, Private &
Public moorings I must tell you that I was very impressed
with yours. The scale and caliber of your facilities,
the cleanliness and beauty of the grounds was very impressive.
We also had a number of meals in your Piper Restaurant
and these also were exceptional. We were impressed enough
that we changed our plan choosing to day sail returning
to your dock each night, as we were sure no other harbor
would offer better accommodations. Thank you and your
staff for adding to what was a very special time."
(Friends of A-16)
- Part of its (Macatawa's) charm comes from its history
as a port of prominence for upper-class summer resorts.
Then recently the port was a commercial fishing area but
not anymore. Today’s focus is on waterskiing, jetskiiing,
sailing and sport fishing.Very friendly staff at the Eldean
shipyard marina plus ultra-modern, very, very, clean facilities.
We had the best pizza ever at the Piper restaurant-special
crust, wood-roasted tomato sauce, and five cheese blend
and then we added bacon, pepperoni, green olives and mushrooms.
We rode our bikes a good eight miles along South Shore
Drive past beautiful homes on Lake Macatawa. We then walked
to the lighthouse at the entrance to the harbor. (Smokin'

- "Dear Eldeans Family, I just wanted to let you
all know what a wonderful time we always have in Holland
at your marina. We have traveled through many ports but
we always come back to Holland. Thank you for making us
feel welcome!" -The Phillips
- "It was a pleasure spending the summer at Eldean
Shipyard. Our family continues to enjoy all of the facilities
and your staff has been courteous, supportive, and friendly.
We will most certainly return again next year. As work
becomes demanding and family times a premium, mooring
at the Shipyard has a great deal of meaning for us. We
appreciate your efforts and the efforts of your staff
to make our stay the positive experience it is. Warmest
regards, Jack and Cindy B."
- "Dear Wade and Matt: On behalf of Judy and myself
I want to say that we have thoroughly enjoyed our years
at the Shipyard and are grateful to the entire Eldean
crew for the courtesy and competence that has been a part
of our experience there. We wish you and Herb and Roger
the very best , and perhaps when my wife's hankering to
see the world has run its course, We will be back begging
for another slip and resuming the lifestyle we have liked
so well." Fred (Formerly E-20)

- RE: Boat Assembly, Preparation, Loading &Transport
- - - "Again, thank you for you and your staff's
hard work and efforts on our behalf. It was a pleasure
dealing with Eldean Shipyard. One last compliment, Eldean
Shipyard maybe the first and only yard we have been to
that was spotlessly clean. We try to maintain our own
facilities in that condition and appreciate how difficult
it can be." -Jim
- RE: Refinishing (Varnish) and Boat Storage
- - - "This is probably the most positive boat-storing
and refinishing experience I have had since I started
boating and getting involved in the maintenance. Thanks
for the great service; I am sure you'll see us back next
year." -Mike
- RE: Mast Rigging - - - "Excellent
job on the rig as usual Dennis!" -Debbie M.
- RE: Rigging, Launch, Storage, & Service
- - - Based on my observations this week [while taking
delivery of my new boat], I'll be staying at Eldean's.
The boat's launching & rigging were handled impressively.
You have cared for this boat very well. The Shipstore
staff were uniformly helpful. My wife & I will look
forward to seeing you each spring & fall & during
occasional summer visits." -George M.

- "I sincerely wish to thank you and your staff for
the excellent care provided for our boat, your attitude,
the spirit of cooperation and accommodation. In my opinion,
I think your facility is one of the nicest on Lake Michigan
and I commend you for your attention to detail, cleanliness
and overall appearance of the marina. With Kindest Regards,"
