Kevin is a phenomenal outdoorsman whose experience, extensive knowledge, and professionalism were…read moreevident throughout the winter hiking / snoeshoeing experience I did with a small group he led in the Catskills last weekend. I signed up for a day-long excursion to Slide Mountain. For a reasonable fee: I was picked up & dropped off at a convenient location and provided with all the outdoor gear I needed for the trip, i.e. snowshoes, walking poles, microspikes and crampons. The group was small - 4 of us total - which made for a more chummy experience. I love the outdoors and grew up camping in the summertime- but wanted to whet my appetite for snow sports and outdoor winter activities. This is perfect for a fit, active person who likes the outdoors and wants to try different things out before committing to purchasing equipment. Having the proper gear prior to these excursions is crucial and owning it can become expensive. This is a happy medium where you can try things out before making the commitment. If you get a good group dynamic, you can end up with built-in hiking buds, which is a huge bonus :) I cannot recommend Gear To Go Outfitters enough for renting outdoor gear and especially for their guided trips. I think this will be the first of the many and have definitely opened up an entire world of outdoor winter activities for me!

Upon reading this review, the owner proceeded to call me at my work upset and actually did admit…read morethat they were wrong and they were the ones that made a mistake but then, instead of saying he was sorry that we had to deal with such an inconvenience on our trip, he proceed to do the following: 1. Told me he had found out where I work and told me he will proceed to go to all of my company's Yelp pages and threatened to make up false ratings. 2. Called me names on the phone and refused to let me talk. 3. And actually, accused me of stealing stakes (that were never actually given to me) and ended up charging me MORE than the original rental. (which I will try to dispute) 4. Threatened to sue me for writing the yelp review... Told me that he is a lawyer and will sue me for everything. I've never had a business owner act so unprofessionally and in such an undignified manner. I would have gladly updated this review with a positive if he had approached this in a fair, polite manner. Instead, he insulted, threatened and even charged me more money because he had the ability to. He used the excuse of "damaged items" (btw, one of our tents came with a hole patched with scotch tape), and claimed we stole stakes from the tents. When I told him that we never received stakes, he flippantly told me "Well you signed the delivery papers, it's not my problem! Why don't you look around harder, check your car!" ... we had never received stakes. He then proceeded to charge me $163 for the "stolen" stakes. I am glad I had the thought to record the entire phone conversation. I only wish Yelp had an option to post the recording... There are many other places to rent your tents from, save yourself the time, money, and after-trip stress. They are thieves...

The owner is always ready for a chat and to offer some advice on whats biting and what he recommends. The selection alone keeps me coming back here pretty frequently even though a bait and tackle store is across the street from my house.

I love that this place also sells products and gear that I have never seen before at other tackle shops and that always peaks my curiosity for another visit.

As a new swimmer it took me some time to understand a lot of the techniques (still a work in progress) but he was always patient and encouraging throughout the process. I also got the opportunity to work with Ivan who I also appreciated! Overall really great experience! The instructors are skilled and do a great job at explaining things. One of the things I loved most were the small classes. typically there would only be one other person in my class and sometimes it would be just me, which was nice! They have flexible class options to choose from during the week and on the weekends. The price is also very affordable!

For local boaters this is a dream facility - however other local families love to join the club to partake in the frequent parties for both adults and children. These parties are all organized, hosted, and run by a volunteer committee of club members. Beyond the facility and the events, the club has been a corner stone of the community for over 30 years and will continue with its mission for generations to come.
