Lake Travis
This Lake Austin boat rental operation has clearly built something special based on years of consistently excellent service. Customers rave about the professional yet friendly approach, from responsive booking communications to the seamless experience on the water. The boats arrive clean and well-maintained, exactly as promised, and pickup arrangements are refreshingly flexible—several groups mention being collected right from their dock or favorite lakeside restaurants. The captains really make the difference here. Jay, Collin, Ramon, David, and Travis all get enthusiastic shoutouts for their local knowledge, safety awareness, and ability to tailor trips perfectly. They know the hidden canals worth exploring, the best swimming spots, and how to navigate choppy water smoothly. Groups have celebrated birthdays, proposals, and team outings with these guides, who somehow manage to entertain kids while keeping adults relaxed. The pricing comes across as reasonable compared to competitors, and many reviewers mention they've become repeat customers or use the service regularly for business needs.
What an incredible time! We had the best captain, Jay who clearly knew the lake and the surrounding points of interest. The pace was excellent, cruising down the lake to a spot to swim, then cruising back to Ski Shores for a bite to eat. What a wondeful way to spend quality time with family and friends (and celebrate a special birthday!). Highly recommend!
