We were seated by the window so we were able to look out and enjoy the beautiful views of Lake Cadillac. Our service was great! Very nice and friendly. Nice quaint restaurant. Our food was delicious!

If I'm ever back in Cadillac, I will definitely be back! Highly recommended!

He is also a rider and very knowledgeable of all the brands they sell. They have a pretty good selection of SkiDoo and Polaris sleds on display so you can see all the different features. After the purchase they introduce you to the service and parts people and I also got a great demonstration on how all the new goodies work. These new sleds are just as hi-tech as cars these days! As much as new toys cost now it's nice to deal with a company that appreciates your business. There is a reason they've stayed in business for so long.

If you take your jet skis to Spicers to get prepped for summer, they will charge you $400. But,…read morenote that they will only "check the fluids." Per Jessie, "we do not put coolant or oil in the jet skis." So---we asked, "What are we paying $400 for?" His response, "we just check the fluids." He didn't tell us the results either. So apparently they were low but we didn't get the report. So when our jet ski ran out of oil he blamed us cause "we don't put oil in the ski, we just check the levels." For $400, I could get my 16 year old to do that...and replace the oil. Something is sketchy about this place.

The staff inside were very helpful and kind, and the owner made sure that we had an amazing time. There were two girls at the end of the dock who seemed to be cleaning boats, as well as filling gas, who were also very caring and kind. When we returned our boat, we unfortunately witnessed a rude customer, and the girls handled to situation with kindness and confidence. They most definitely did not deserve to be treated like that, as this business has surpassed all boat rentals that I have used in the past, in every aspect. I will most definitely be using Brian's Lakeside Marina again! 20/10 experience! Thank you so much! -The Debbie

We had such high hopes for a great day on the water. We had three families and rented a very large…read morepontoon and tube for tubing. We were told to be at the landing at 10:30 for an 11 o'clock reservation. We were greeted with a man very irritated with us dropping off our coolers and bags. Apparently we were supposed to walk everything down from the parking lot. Not a problem but we were not told and there wasn't a sign. We didn't need to start our day with attitude but no big deal. The boat shows up at 11:10. We now have been waiting for 40 minutes. Kind of irritating but we are looking forward to a good day, so again, we shake it off. We take the boat out and it immediately stalls. We can not go faster than a very slow speed. We tried calling for about a half hour with no answer. We finally get someone and they say the fix to this problem, is to go sit at the sand bar for half an hour. Didn't send anyone out, they just want us to go sit. After sitting for about 1-5 to 2 hours, trying to make the best of the situation, we tried it again and it's still stalling. After calling them back again, they were angry with US. We are now arguing with them by phone and text in the middle of the lake on our fun day out. They have no solution and the only thing they offered was to take $100 off of our rental. We couldn't use the boat or the tubes and paid $600 for the day. The last thing they said, as you can see from the picture of the text, is that we need to still pay for the gas and "congratulations" on making them give us money back. They couldn't have been more petty at this point. We would have been more upset with the absurdity of them asking that, but we didn't use any gas because THE BOAT DIDN'T WORK. They ended up refunding us $225 after all that. We still paid too much but it's not worth the fight. Sometimes things happen that are unfortunate, but to be treated so terribly the entire time was just not right. To get nasty with us and not even come out to see if they could fix the boat, was unprofessional. The text message was rude and uncalled for. I would not recommend this company and certainly would never use them again.
