Renting a boat here is about as low-stress as it gets. The check-in process is quick and straightforward, the boats are consistently described as clean and well-maintained, and staff members like Becca and Shane get regular shoutouts for going the extra mile. Whether you're heading out to fish or just cruise Mission Bay, the dock crew takes time to walk you through everything before you go, which first-timers especially seem to appreciate. The pontoon boats are a clear crowd favorite for groups, complete with Bluetooth speakers and a table on board for snacks or games. Skiffs are also available for those focused on fishing, with reasonable pricing and a no-fuss rental process. One small heads-up: the live bait station is cash only, so come prepared if that's part of your plan. The overwhelming majority of reviews reflect a genuinely positive experience, and repeat visits are mentioned frequently. There is the occasional frustration around customer service when things go sideways, so it's worth communicating clearly with staff if any issues come up on the water. Overall though, the combination of friendly staff, clean equipment, and an easy booking process makes this a solid choice for a day out on the bay.
We had an excellent time booking a pontoon over Memorial Day weekend. The water was a little too cold for us, but it was nice driving around the coves. Check in process was seamless and parking wasn’t too bad considering the holiday weekend. Our two-hour rental went by so fast, so we’ll definitely had to book a longer slot next time. Staff was great and very accommodating.
