I had a slip at Lighthouse for 15 years for my sailboat. The day I was launching the sailboat for…read morethe 2024 season, I was spoke to the boatyard manager. He informed me that Lighthouse didn't want any sailboats! Sailboats buy little or no fuel and require far less repairs than a power boat. He told me I was "grandfathered in" but I was on borrowed time. I wasn't quite sure what to think. Over the 15 seasons, I had minimal contact with Lighthouse staff. On July 4th, Lighthouse called to inform me my mast fell over. I went up to assess the issue. The same boatyard manager showed me a broken clevis pin that secured one of the 3 stays. Extremely strange to say the least, the clevis pin is a stainless steel alloy, I never heard of a failed clevis pin, especially in a docked boat on a calm day. The fallen mast damaged the deck area. I was told Lighthouse does ZERO servicing of sailboats including fiberglass repairs. Powerboats are usually fiberglass but Lighthouse obviously really did not want any sailboat dealings. The boatyard manager told me he stored the mast in the service shop for me until I had the deck repaired at a nearby boat yard. The repair took about 4 weeks. The day I returned with the repaired sailboat, Lighthouse could not find the mast!!!! The boatyard manager was "away", No one knew it's whereabouts. After an hour of searching, a mast is rather large, it was found. The found mast was missing one of the 3 stays!!!! I asked what happened to the 3rd stay. Initially the staff told me that maybe the sailboat only had 2 stays........impossible. A minimum of 3 stays are required to stabilize a mast ( think 3 legs on a stool). Removing the stay would require wrenches, it couldn't just fall off, it was a deliberate removal. The staff immediately told me Lighthouse was NOT responsible......who was responsible??? Lighthouse told since it was my boat, it was MY problem. Lighthouse is beyond dishonest. The staff is aloof and rude. There are numerous horror stories with botched sales and service. Beware and do business with Lighthouse at your own risk!!!!

My experience was not good; I attempted to inquire about a boat for sale and was given mixed…read moreanswers. I called about a boat and explained that i lived a couple of hours away.. i asked if i could put a deposit on the boat and was told they would get back to me. i had to call. I was then told no, first come first serve, and that they open at 9 am. I said i could be there. I then called that afternoon to be sure the boat wasn't sold and got told that there were 2 other appt. on the boat and that they would let me know.... waaa waaa waaa I was never offered or told i could make an appt. even after offering the deposit. needless to say, they sold the boat and i never got a chance to see it. When I spoke to the owner about this his only concern was the bad reviews he was getting over how he was handling the sale of this boat. His name is Nick and the female salesperson is Marie. I would not do business with them ever now. and it stinks too because they had other boats i may have been interested in.

When I confronted the owner, he said it was my fault. He told me that he did winterized it but i put it back in the water and I was the one who forgot to winterize it again.

I was on vacation at Lake Wallenpaupack and had taken my boat with me. The boat had been sitting…read morefor a few years and would not start. I called around and no one on the lake would take "a boat older than our mechanics". I called A & D and spoke to Pete who said it was no problem and he would fit me in since I was only there a short time. Pete and Mike were a pleasure to work with and helped out with a bunch of little things like my missing fuel cap, they found a replacement for no additional charge. These guys did a great job getting my boat running and cleaned up. After the boat was in the water I took my 40 year old trailer to them to replace the rollers and the dry-rotted tires. Again they did a fantastic job and I can't say enough nice things about the work and how I was treated. Whenever I am near the Wallenpaupack area that is where I will take my boat for any kind of service. I might even make the 2 hour drive up from home because the service was that good! - Dean

Rented a medium-sized pontoon for half a day. The staff was plentiful, courteous and professional…read more The boats were all in amazing shape. Ours looked brand new despite the hours logged. The outboard was only a 50 however, but with only 2 adults and 2 children on board it wasn't terribly underpowered. Pricing was competitive for the area. The marina was a bit tight but nothing I haven't seen before. There is very little traffic around their cove which makes for a quick departure and docking. I like that it's at the end of the lake which gives you an opportunity to do a full stretch without a lot of backtracking. The store was fully stocked with bait and tackle. This was one of the best boat rental experiences I've had in years and I would absolutely use them again.

I like to go for the fishing boat with motor because I don't want to paddle or pay too much but there are different options depending on what your doing. I would have preferred to make a reservation but the rentals are on first come, first serve basis so make sure you get there early. I wasn't sure how long I wanted the boat for so they let me book 2 hours and then settle up when I got back. I was a little nervous because the boat didn't tell me how deep the water was beneath me, but we didn't get stuck so it's all good. I was happy I brought my radio. I did get lost a little but was able to pull up a map on my phone. They have a lot of fishing equipment for you to buy as well. I had to take a "safety course" to be able to rent the boat but it didn't take long and wasn't a big deal. They didn't even give me a hard time about crashing into the wall on my way out. The steering took a little to get used to, especially in reverse. The first time I was here, I dropped the anchor in the water but it wasn't tied to the boat so it just dropped to the bottom.

Kevin, in sales exercised great patience with me. He answered all of my questions assured me of the store's commitment to quality and worked with me on the price.

I also received a follow up call to see how we were enjoying the new purchase! Now that's service. Kevin, you are a gem! You made Summer 2014 the best one yet! Thanks
