Freeport Marina

Pen and ink drawing of Freeport Marina and Post Office

3 - Freeport Marina & Post Office - 12068 Freeport Road - Rt. 673.  Stores have been located on this Piankatank River site since the Civil War. The current store was constructed in the 1900’s after its predecessor was washed away by a hurricane. The Freeport Store was originally an overnight berth for the Piankatank Steamship line. Steamship service ended in 1932 due to the popularity of automobile transportation. The store is a way station and scenic port for boaters, but landlubbers are welcome also!  Open seasonally (Memorial Day until...) Saturday & Sunday 10 am to 5 pm.
