The City of Vergennes provides municipal docks for boaters in the Otter Creek Basin, which is navigable by most all types of watercrafts. Seven miles inland from Lake Champlain, visitors can dock their boats, enjoy a beautiful view of the waterfalls, and walk to downtown Vergennes to shop, dine or swim in our public pool.
You'll find a boat launch, docks on both sides of Otter Creek with power and water available on a first-come, first-served basis (a nominal donation is suggested). If you need boating services while you're here, check out Point Bay Marina (Charlotte, VT on the lake, full service) Creekside Marine (Ferrisburgh, on Otter Creek) or Marine Plus VT (N. Ferrisburgh on Rte. 7) Highly recommended, schedule a fishing charter, with Obe White at Cloud Nine Charters!
While docking in Vergennes, get your sea legs stretched and take the Vergennes Historic Walking Tour!
“WOW WOW and WOW, it is a gorgeous place, quiet, no wind, no current - don’t miss it!”
“Tranquil ride up the creek, to a beautiful spot below waterfalls. Hiking trail on south side of creek. Several restaurants to choose from in town, free wifi. We spent 2 days here & were glad we came. We will be back!”
