Owner Zana is polite and friendly to your face but don't do business with her. She told me last…read moreweek dock fees going up $400 this year - no prior notice given. New fee is $1,500. She says her property taxes went up - not my problem. I asked her what "winterization" includes, besides the $150 charge. She told me she doesn't know. She collects the money, is only face I see but she can't or won't answer the simple question. I asked her to accept same dock fee $1,100 for this year due to no notice of increase. She rejected that idea without hesitating, just as if she is entitled to extra money. Now it's too late to find other dock space in time for season. Anybody have a dock to rent? Let me know.

The owner here at Sandy Beach, Jim, is the rudest, most arrogant businessman with whom I have ever…read moredealt. On July 14th I stopped in to get a price on a pontoon boat lift. He offered me a great price on a lift that was the last of its model line and I told him I would buy it. In fact I offered to put money down to hold it but he said not to worry. He suggested I get the permit first. Four weeks later I called him to say that I had the permit and wanted to schedule the installation. It was then that he told me they were too busy to install it any time in 2017. It took another three weeks to find an installer who was gracious enough to work on a lift which he had not sold through his own marina. (See my separate review of Kelly's Marine at Lake Milton). I called Sandy Beach to let them know I had found someone to install it and the woman at the phone, who I believe is Jim's wife, said "Great, come on in". On September 2nd I walked into the Sandy Beach office with my checkbook in hand. When I saw Jim I said, "OK Jim let's get rolling on this" and stuck out my hand to shake his. He walked right past me gruffly exclaiming that he didn't want to sell it anymore and that he had given me too good a deal on it. I was shocked. Jim is building a new restaurant beside the marina. I won't be eating there!

Buckeye Sports Center - Shame on you!!!…read more Saturday of last week I went to Buckeye Sports Center to pickup my skis that were being tuned and to pickup another set of older skis that I attempted to sell at their annual ski swap. My older skis did not sell and I needed to pick them up. I was late picking up my skis as a result of my Father's illness, death and funeral. Buckeye Sports Center informed me that because I was late picking up my skis from the ski swap that I was not entitled to the return of my skis or the 200 dollars that I was attempting to sell them for (for which I was to receive store credit). Please note that Buckeye Sports still had plenty of other skis in back remaining to be picked up, they just for a very odd reason did not have my skis. I gave my return ticket to the store clerk and he stated that their records indicated that someone had already picked up my skis. My response was, "well clearly you gave my skis to the wrong person." The clerk responded, "how do we know that" - implying that I was lying to him. Please note that I have been a customer of Buckeye Sports for several decades and as recently had 4 pairs of skis tuned by them. I asked the clerk to review the situation with the owner of Buckeye Sports who was in back and he did. The owner did not have the respect, nor the character, to speak directly with me and instructed the clerk to tell me that there was nothing ownership was willing to do. Thereby callously disregarding why I was late picking up the skis and completely ignoring the fact that the reason why the skis were not there was because his employees made a mistake and gave my skis to another customer who had similar skis. Mistakes happen, but there is no excuse for Buckeye Sports' poor treatment of me as their customer and unwillingness to correct the mistake that was made by their staff member. Needless to say, I will never shop at Buckeye Sports. Their actions yesterday demonstrate bad business practices and even worse business ethics.

Best in class dealership. This was my second big purchase from Buckeye, and I'll continue keeping…read morethem first on my list for any future purchases. VIP Customer Service. They did an excellent job educating me about my new boat as this is my first boat after purchasing a Hobie Pro Angler from them years ago. They put a lot of time, attention, and detail into prepping my boat so it would be water ready. They worked with me to get all the features on the boat that met my needs. VIP Treatment with the boat pickup as they were flexible with scheduling, had a congratulations sign, everyone walking on the boat took their shoes off, they consistently offered drinks/restroom, their service guys came out to answer technical questions, and they highlighted critically important parts of the manual so I may quickly revisit for review as a lot of information was covered during pick up. They don't just want to sell you, but they want to make sure you are set up for success, you are safe, and you have an all around great experience on the water and with Buckeye. Customer oriented all around. Would recommend anyone give Buckeye the first stop before looking elsewhere.

When I finally got ahold of him I asked him what we need to do, did he need more money? He immediately stated screaming at me he already told me last week. I stopped him and said he must have me confused with a different customer. He told me to shut up. When I asked him not to speak to me that way, it was extremely unprofessional, he screamed more and told me to shut up again. At that point I screamed back and said I wanted my money and boat back. He said no and hung up. I called repeatedly demanding my boat back, told no and hung up on. When I got to the facility demanding my boat, Jim was a coward and wouldn't speak with me and I was only able to get my boat returned after Jim had a conversation with the police about my property. By far an untrustworthy and unstable person.

They also have some cruises with live Musicians on board, which is really nice too.
