We had a great time on the boat.
It was fun having the two person tube for tubing. Robert was really good with communicating. Everything went well and the boat ran great. - JohnJohn★ ★ ★ ★ ★ 5/5 stars (5/5)Weekday Discount - Yamaha AR210 - Watersports Ready - Whitmore LakeAug. 17th
Robert was a total class-act. Went above and beyond for us! Will definitely rent from him in the future!

Rob is an absolutely amazing guy. Great communicator, his boat is clean, well maintained. All around great experience. I cannot recommend renting from him enough. My cousin and our kids had an absolute blast. My daughter’s first trip on a boat and first time swimming she caught 3 fish!! Meanwhile, as always, I end up with an empty hook. I will definitely rent from him again!! Whitmore lake was gorgeous. Please use Rob!

The owner, Rob, is very friendly, helpful, and timely with communication.
The boat was in like-new condition, exactly as described. Great value for money.
Overall the experience was seamless, enjoyable, and one I plan to repeat again very soon. Highly recommend Rob and his boat for Michigan Summer fun on the water!

We had a great day on the water. The boat was clean, ran well, and was just what we expected. The dock staff were helpful, and pickup and return went smoothly. Communication was easy from start to finish. We enjoyed cruising around the Detroit River and would rent from them again. Thanks for a fun day!

Robert was awesome ! I'd highly rec'd Robert and one of his 2 boat listings anytime you want to have fun on the water. Robert was quick to respond and able to accommodate my schedule and even gave me extra time on the water !! No hassles or waiting. Highly Recommended.........

We rented a boat for a girls’ day on Lake St. Clair and had an amazing experience! The boat was exactly as described, and spending the day cruising Lake St. Clair with friends was the perfect way to relax and enjoy the sunshine. We really appreciated how organized and seamless everything was. A special shoutout to Tony, who was so friendly, helpful, and welcoming. He took the time to answer our questions and made sure we felt comfortable before heading out. We’ll definitely be back!!

If you're looking for an unforgettable day making memories on the water, renting Rob’s boat is an absolute must! My recent experience renting a boat from Rob was truly fantastic and exceeded all expectations. From the smooth booking process, his personable approach, the drop off and pick up, to the amazing day spent on the Pinckney Chain of Lakes, it was a perfect way to make lasting memories on the July 4th weekend . Thank you Rob my family had the best time.

We had a great time! Rover and James were very communicative and helpful. Renting on a Monday we almost had the whole lake to ourselves and had a blast tubing. Would definitely rent from them again.
