Departing From: Tailrace Marina (Mt. Holly)
Hunter and his team have built something special here, with customers consistently praising the professionalism and crystal-clear communication throughout the entire rental process. The boats themselves are spotless and well-maintained, with pontoons getting particular love from reviewers. What sets them apart is the thoughtful prep work: educational videos about the boat and lake, detailed maps showing safe swimming spots, and even optional boating lessons for first-timers (Brandon gets shout-outs as an instructor). People appreciate the straightforward pricing and how smoothly everything runs from booking to launch. The staff's flexibility really shines through in these reviews. Multiple customers mention last-minute cancellations due to illness or weather that were handled with understanding and ease. Families, church groups, couples, and even dog owners report having fantastic days on the water, with many already planning return trips. The marina facilities at TrailRace are clean and convenient, though one review mentioned a challenging situation with elderly family members accessing kayaks where additional staff support would have helped. Overall, this operation earns high marks for making boat rentals stress-free and enjoyable.
Beautiful short photography and guided loop in front of Mt Vernon on the Potomac. Worth every penny of the $11.00!
