The marina holds a rating of 4.70 from the customers who have reviewed it.

Knudson Cove Marina began in the 1940s on a single float and has grown into a full marina with 130 moorage slips. It sits about 15 miles north of downtown Ketchikan, nestled into the Tongass National Forest, and guests can troll out of the marina to catch multiple species of salmon, as well as halibut, rockfish, and crab. The surrounding area offers kayaking in the Inside Passage and hiking in the mountains and rainforests of the national forest. The marina welcomes back guests who have been staying at and using its facilities for up to 30 years in a row.

The marina is on Knudson Cove Road, about a tenth of a mile from the North Tongass Highway. Trollers Creek is roughly three-tenths of a mile away, and Potter Point sits about half a mile off. Clover Pass Marina is about a mile and a half away.

Its long history on these fishing grounds, combined with lodging, boat rentals, and guided charters in one place, makes Knudson Cove Marina a lasting part of the Ketchikan fishing community.
