    Josie and the rest of the staff here have built a genuinely enjoyable experience on the Kalamazoo River in Saugatuck. The boats, many with charming names like Betty, Doris, and Ruby, are clean, well-maintained, and surprisingly spacious. Families with young kids seem especially happy, with reviewers noting life jackets in all sizes and engines quiet enough for babies to nap through the whole ride. The Duffy-style boats are also a great pick for anyone with mobility concerns, as the staff goes out of their way to help guests on and off. The pace here is leisurely rather than thrilling, these are slow, scenic cruises rather than speedboat adventures. But that seems to be exactly the point, and most people leave wishing they had booked more time. The staff consistently earns praise for being friendly, clear with directions, and easy to work with from check-in to docking. Dogs are welcome, swimming from the boat is an option, and you can bring your own drinks and snacks onboard. For a relaxed afternoon on the water, it is hard to find many reasons not to go.
