About Tailrace Marina

Tailrace Marina on Lake Wylie offers boat storage and water recreation for families and boaters. Visitors can rent covered or open boat slips to dock their vessels securely, with state-of-the-art surveillance and safety measures protecting each boat. The marina also rents kayaks, stand-up paddleboards, and pontoon boats for those wanting to get out on the water. On-site facilities include a fully stocked ship store, scenic picnic areas with grilling facilities, full bathrooms with showers, and ample parking. J.R. Cash Grill & Bar sits adjacent to the marina, serving scratch-made American food including oversized sandwiches and slow-roasted prime rib on a covered patio with lake views. The marina occupies a historic site on the Catawba River where a Superior Yarn Mill once operated; traces of the old mill's tailrace and headrace structures remain visible. Located in Mount Holly, North Carolina, Tailrace Marina blends water-based activities with lakeside relaxation and community gathering.
