Customers consistently praise the staff for being professional, friendly, and exceptionally helpful with everything from boat walkthroughs to local tips.

The Good

Customers consistently praise the exceptional customer service provided by the staff, frequently mentioning specific employees (Jack, Carson, Michael, ZK, Captain Steve, Ike, Lorin, George) for being friendly, professional, knowledgeable, and attentive. The rental process, including booking, check-in, and check-out, is frequently described as seamless, smooth, and efficient. The watercraft (boats, pontoons, jet skis) are reported to be in excellent, clean, and well-maintained condition, running great. Captained tours and tubing experiences were highlighted as fantastic ways to enjoy the lake and create unforgettable family memories.

Things to Consider

The primary negative feedback points revolve around pricing and logistics. Some customers found the rentals to be 'pricey' and noted that gas costs are not included. One review mentioned being charged for fees that were initially presented as optional. Logistical concerns included a request for better lake maps for renters who are unfamiliar with the area, as one group felt stressed and lost. Additionally, one customer noted that the scheduled 'Sunset Tour' occurred two hours before the actual sunset, and another wished for a 30-minute rental option for jet skis.
