Russell Marine - The Ridge Marina

Very large marina with lots of slips, tons of docking at the fuel station which also allows for closed hours fueling with a credit card. Well stocked marina inside with lots of boating supplies, snacks and drinks. Staff is always courteous and friendly.

Nice marina. We were guests on a boat that bought beer and gas. Good service.

I was in need of a large shackle for a new anchor I purchased for my boat. What they had on the shelf was not large enough for my needs. Jeff, the GM of the Marina (I believe that was his name..... I am horrible with names...lol) quickly approached me and asked me if I needed help. I told him what I was looking for and he did not hesitate to go to the back room and brought out exactly what I needed. Jeff was extremely friendly as were all of the staff members there. Great customer service and a really nice atmosphere inside the store. I will definitely go back to this place. Good job Ridge Marina!!!

Beautiful lake. I love it.

We began storing our boat at Russell Marine’s Ridge Marina this year in March 2022. The customer service has been great and all the staff are always ready to assist. We highly recommend any of the Russell Marinas on Lake Martin!

So neat to see these huge boats close up. Very clean. Lots of knee boards and other merch for sale.

Every time we stop here, it's a great experience, never any hassles, always quick and always polite!

Our boat had an issue today, another boater towed us to Ridge Marina and called ahead to let them know we were coming. Two staff members were waiting on us at the dock to pull the boat in and tie it off. Within 30 mins they had the problem diagnosed, but unfortunately were not able to fix it immediately due to the nature of the problem. We had three children with us, one of which is 18 months old. We had no one who could pick us up for a couple hours so Justin from Ridge loaded us up on a pontoon and delivered us back to our condo.Ridge went above and beyond in doing this! Thank you all very much!

We rented a boat from the Marina and I brought a brand new tube from home to tow behind it. Unfortunately, the tube broke second time being used. The Marina took pity on me and sold me one of their tubes at a good discount and inflated it for me on the spot. Friendly, polite employees.

Same as north marina I would think I only bought gas I did not go inside

Great place to shop for your boating needs.

Best prices on the lake for rentals. We rented a pontoon boat for the week and they had great rates for a quality boat. Partway through the week we asked about switching to their Ski Natique wakesurf boat and they made it happen. They offer a military discount and late in the season all their stuff inside is sold at a steep discount which is great. I also have to specifically call out one of their employees Justin - the guy was great, did everything he could to make sure we had an awesome time, even lent me his own personal life jacket so we could go wakeboarding. Anything he could do to make sure we had fun on the lake, he did it - you don't find awesome people like that very often so he deserves every ounce of appreciation I can muster.

When checking out / in the boats, I was given a full functional explanation of all the electronics and equipment, and they made sure the boat was full of gas. On the down side, this is the only marina I've ever rented from where we didn't do a full condition check of the boat. I elected to check the prop and skeg and exterior to make sure nothing was broken before I rented, but I could have returned the boat with half the prop missing and i'm not sure they would have noticed. Case in point - a previous renter of the Ski Natique had run into something and ripped the bimini off, but somehow got it past them on check-in. It also doesn't look like they do a cleaning of the boat before returning so you'll find trash under the seats. On the plus side, that meant that we found skis and ski ropes and a few noodles on one of the boats that we got to use without paying for them.

If you're willing to throw away a little trash and clean up the boat a bit when you get it, and you know what to look for before leaving the dock so you are positive you're not taking a damaged boat, then this is definitely the place to go. Everyone was exceptionally friendly, their selection was great, and their prices can't be beat. It was a no brainer for us.

Very kind staff. Clean. Easy to get to.

Fantastic customer service. Jen, Will and Jackie are the best and represent the best of Russell Marine.

I have been there dozens of times and always had great service . Since its a boat and marina place they are very busy in the summer and if you get there at peak hours you might have to wait a few minutes extra .

Great place. Helpful, friendly staff. Watching them put the boats in the water is impressive.

Great place to stop for quick items and gas. The employees at the pumps are always super nice and helpful when we stop by.

Spoke with Mike on the phone from The Ridge Marina. Literally the most helpful and kind person we spoke with. So helpful!! 100% recommend!!

Ritzy spot with friendly staff and good hours. Rental was in good condition and suited us well for the day.

Helpful staff, wide selection of what you need. Plenty of parking.
