    This outfit has clearly figured out the watersports rental formula. The crew, including Jim (the owner), Devin, Hunter, Ronnie, and even the dog, consistently earn praise for being friendly and genuinely helpful. What really sets them apart is how they treat guests. Rather than making you feel micromanaged, they give thorough safety briefings then let you explore a massive riding area where some riders report hitting 55 mph on jet skis that aren't throttled back. Multiple families mention returning year after year for both jet ski and pontoon rentals, with flexible time options starting at 45 minutes. The equipment is reliably described as top-notch and well-maintained, and the booking process is straightforward even for last-minute decisions. One review particularly highlighted how staff handled an unexpected storm, prioritizing everyone's safety with genuine care and hospitality, then allowing guests to finish their rental time afterward. The location on the sound side offers warm, bathwater-like conditions. Whether you're trying tiki boat rentals or wave runners, the consistent theme is freedom to enjoy yourself combined with attentive service that doesn't hover.

    They have 5 stars for a reason. I'm happy to contribute to it. The equipment was new and great, friendly service, and most importantly, well organized. With the large area to ride around in, I felt free to ride and not micro-managed.
