Big Tex Boat Rentals was amazing! We rented a boat for a family fun day, and everyone had an incredible time. Our boat captain, Joel, treated us with such politeness and kindness. He was very knowledgeable about the local area and shared great information about the things people enjoy doing around Lake Travis. Joel took care of our every need and made sure our entire family had an unforgettable experience. We truly had an amazing time from start to finish! Five stars all the way!
