A fantastic use of a old boat/shipping yard, very family orientated and just so beautiful, spotless clean, spacious for the young/ not so young. Plenty of café, bar's and food places. From boat trips, jet skiing, fishing. Across the water was roller coaster, and other attractions for everyone.
Convenient to old city and downtown hotels. Easy access from the boats to the city streets and places of interest. Plenty of restaurants and shops along St Paul and other nearby places are f interest.
