I Had a rental boat from them this weekend, they are very nice and professional. The receptionist in the office was nice and easy to work with, the guy who set up the boat was very professional and nice as well he answered all questions and suggested good spot for fishing besides the really helpful orientation. Boat was identical to photos and descriptions shown on the website and the boating experience was amazing. Had a small issue in the transaction, Tracy the owner had dealt with it professionally and all got solved next day. Would definitely recommend it !

I liked it. I didn’t have a car that made it a little difficult but overall, I loved it.

It was nice! The deluxe spots have outdoor furniture, fire pit and a full charcoal grill! The stamped concrete patios are a nice touch.

We dropped into the marina hoping to grab a bite to eat. Unfortunately we were told that the restaurant was closed and that the current people were only leasing the place. Apparently there was a bar and live music was going to start around 3. We needed food so we got back in the boat and headed off. They did have a clean restroom.

We’ve had a very disappointing experience during our visit. When we arrived, someone was parked in the spot assigned to us. We then went to the restaurant, only to find it had been closed months. We were also told there would be a food truck available at 11 AM, but it didn’t open until noon. Overall, we are extremely dissatisfied and unfortunately will not be returning.
