North Point Marina, located on a 140-acre nature preserve, opened in 1989 and boasts 1,500 slips, the largest number on the Great Lakes. Conveniently centered between the metro areas of Chicago, Illinois and Milwaukee, Wisconsin, with easy access to the Interstate and Metra, relaxation is never more than a short ride away.

North Point Marina offers world-class amenities that are second to none, highlighted during the April 1 to October 31 boating season. Floating docks with slips from 30 to 60 feet and end ties to 108 feet are protected by a double breakwall, while new ADA-accessible docks guarantee that the marina is open to anyone. Full marine service, storage and fuel are available on-site through Skipper Bud’s of Illinois. Dedicated security patrols the docks and roadways 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The nature preserve offers hiking/biking trails, picnic areas and beaches, as well as multiple playgrounds and ball courts so that boaters of all ages can find opportunities for dockside recreation. An active yacht club, spirited slipholder community and The Tropics Restaurant & Bar provide continual excitement, while generous, restricted parking and meticulously maintained bathhouses guarantee a hassle-free retreat.

With all of these amenities, many are surprised by the affordable, all-inclusive slip rates where no taxes or surcharges apply; water, electricity, extensive cable channels, pump-outs, restricted parking, plentiful private bathhouse access and more are already included. North Point Marina offers a relaxing and safe boating experience, nestled in a lush natural atmosphere. Old salts and new boaters alike have come to expect the gracious hospitality that awaits them at their home away from home.
