We were excited to take the boat out and the staff was friendly, however their boats are not kept up. Our boat’s speedometer nor fuel gauge worked. There was also a gash in the boat with exposed nails underneath.

Great vacation spot with an amazing view. Staff are very hospitable with great attitudes and personalities. They also welcomed my fur baby as if she was theirs.

Definitely would like to come back.
