    The young staff was friendly and nice to deal with. The boat was older and couldn't go very fast which limited how far we could go. But it was clean and in good working order. Also, the marina charged us $200 for gas for the 4 hour rental but we only used a quarter tank. That's like $40 per gallon. Overall, we had a great time, but the cost was excessive.

    Great morning out on Andrew's pontoon! It was clean, spacious, and kids enjoyed the sound system while cruising Emerald Bay and other sites. Highly recommend!

    The staff in the experience were great however a couple things they should point out in the rental agreement is that you have to pay $12 to park there and they should make it clear that it’s $50 per hour is how they track fuel consumption whether you sit and float around or drive the hell out of the boat it’s the same price. The boat we got was in pretty good shape, but it have rough use and the AM/FM stereo did not work and they acted like they never knew it did

    $50 per hour for gas is a scam. We went out for four hours and only went through a 1/4 tank which should have cost $20-30 but their lame policy states you have to pay $200 plus tax which was $223. Parking is $12 and was told they will validate but the people working the front counter said we can only validate one car. There were two cars in our group. The boat has a 200hp engine and only went 18-19 mph. We were looking for a great time on the lake with the family but unfortunately we didn’t

    Great rental! They were very thorough and communicative. They have a foolproof support system and walkthrough program for the first timers as well. Boat was in good and expected condition for a rental. They were helpful and knowledgeable for nice spots around the lake as well! Will definitely rent again! Also not stated - but standard for the lake it seems- the fuel is a flat rate $50 per hour. Not a big deal.

    Lake Tahoe is a must see, and the best way to do that is on the water! Dylan was a fantastic captain of the double decker tiki party boat, very knowledgeable about the lake and surrounding areas, great sense of humor, always keeping safety a top priority. We had ages 6 months to 65 years on the boat and Dylan handled the group of 11 with ease! Grilled lunch, swam, SUP, slide and jumping off the top -great fun. Highly recommended! Great day had by all.

    Dylan was great as a captain. Our family had a great time. The upper deck with a slide off the back was great! On the upper deck, there are couches and speakers and if one wants shade, one can just remain below the upper deck. Best of both worlds. The kids and adults had a great time. Also, the onboard bathroom was a must and separates this booking from others. We booked for 6 hours and was worth it. Highly recommended.

    The boat didn't have anchor, which meant we couldn't just anchor near the shores. it also didn't have any ladder to get into the boat from the water. Essentially getting into and out of water was restricted. The music system was broken some pioneer car player which wouldn't connect to bluetooth.

    Andrew at Camp Richardson Marina was great and easy to work with. My only issue was with the boat itself. It's an older boat and did not get over 25 mph while on the water. It was hard to pull even 1 person on the tube. Other than that, great experience.

    Nice boat, good communication, easy pickup and drop off. Couldn’t award a 5 star because much of the boat including all windshield surfaces were covered with a layer of pollen. That should have been wiped clean before our rental started.

    Arrived at 11:00 for my scheduled rental.
    Didnt get on the boat until 11:30 due to about 5 minutes of paperwork and 25 minutes to fill up the boat with gas. You will probably think you will be charged local market value for the gas you use? Nope. They charge you $50/hour for gas! I drove for 4 hours straight and used a 1/4 of a tank. Why so little gas? They adjust the throttle so wide open is really only 2/3 throttle. Then, double charged me on gas scam. Enjoy the dirty money Andrew...

    We had a great day. Easy booking, easy checkin, boat ran great and was just right for our group of 8. We did have minor issues with stereo (connecting to BT and only 1 speaker worked) but otherwise all good. Would definitely rent again.

    The boat itself is great, not super powerful but very smooth and quite, the size/shape of the hull handles Tahoe waters well, which many boats cannot. Be cautious of the fuel fee. Instead of charging you for actual fuel used (we used barely any), they charge you $50/hr. I noticed after the fact that this was disclosed, but I missed it on booking. It is a tricky way for them to get 30% more on arrival when you thought you paid in full already.

    The boat was great, the captain “Dylan” was awesome. It was disappointing that the boat didn’t have the grill as advertised and we bought food to grill, and that the bathroom didn’t work. Would have been nice to know ahead of time. Aside from that it’s a fun boat.

    Our chosen day was rainy. I messaged and called Andrew prior to our rental time and now, a day later, I still have yet to hear back from him. Terrible customer service.
