Was told boat filled but I wasn't entitled to a refund even though he said he would. I asked about rescheduling, he wouldn't do that. He is a total liar. Please don't give him your business. P.o.s. Hopefully he never loses a child and learns some honesty.

Very pleasant experience here…read more We called a few days in advance to rent a fishing boat for 4 hours. We thought the price was quite reasonable. When we arrived, we were shown a safety video on boating. The worker at the time then met us at our boat and gave us more tips. We had no trouble on the water, and it was a great day. The only thing I would suggest is a more streamlined payment and paperwork process. It's still a bit old school and time consuming. Great day on the water!

Do not trust this company AT ALL especially the OWNER and if you look at previous reviews, this is…read morenot the first time. Before you do ANYTHING and I mean ANYTHING AT ALL, have them show you the propeller regardless if there is a swim deck on the boat or not BEFORE you SIGN ANYTHING AT ALL OR TAKE IT OUT IN THE WATER. Trust me, it will save you in the end. DO NOT SIGN ANYTHING UNTIL YOU HAVE READ EVERYTHING ON THE PAPER AND HAVE SEEN EVERYTHING! We ended up paying for a new propeller that "was broken" and which ended up not being the cause of us stranded in the water. According to one of the employees who opened up the motor and I quote "You are fine, it's nothing. It's just the pin." He then yelled across the parking lot to the owner "it's not the drive, it's the pin in the transmission. We just need a new pin." The owner's response "I still need to put a new prop on it." Again, we were told by the employee we were not at fault. The owner then removed the 3 blade prop, removed the plastic sheath, said that part was fine. He did not charge us for a new plastic sheath and then put a 4 blade prop on the motor, which we were charged for. Apparently after we left, they replaced the pin as we saw the same boat in the water a few hours later. So for the frustration and dishonesty from the owner, if you still rent from them, DO NOT SIGN ANYTHING UNTIL YOU QUESTION EVERYTHING AND TAKE A PICTURE TO COVER YOUR BUTT. Do not trust and take your business else where.

Do you love hiking and bird watching? That is there too. Historic lighthouses? Historic markers? Great lookout points? Those are all there too. They even have boat rides. This is a great place to spend time as a family, have a romantic date, hang out or get some exercise. The beaches have a variety of facilities and have different types of beach experiences depending on where you are. It is worth a drive to feel like you are getting a beach getaway closer to home. I highly recommend a visit here.

One thing they could do a bit better with this festival is communicating when events are changed/postponed/cancelled.

FishUSA is hands-down one of the best places to order fishing gear, especially for ice fishing…read more They've got everything you could ever need and then some. When the useless post office lost my shipment (no surprise there), FishUSA didn't hesitate -- they replaced it right away and made it right without any runaround. Excellent selection, great prices, and customer service that actually cares. I'll definitely keep buying from them!

I ordered 2 Shimano fishing rods 2 weeks before my fishing trip. The total price exceeded the…read more$75.00 threshold for free shipping, but FishUSA charged me $6.00 for special handling. FishUSA selected their cheapest shipper, USPS, and although their shipping map showed an average of 2 days from their location to mine, my rods bounced back and forth between the same locations in Pennsylvania and then between Greensboro, NC and Montgomery. AL several times. I emailed FishUSA about this and they responded that there was nothing they could due for at least 7 days after the package was to be delivered. I left for my fishing trip and the rods had not yet been delivered. Upon return I found a package with 3 of the 4 sides split open and packing matter protruding out of the box. Additionally, one end was crushed. Upon checking the enclosed rods I found one had a tip that bends outward and the eyelets are not straight up the shaft. I sent pictures to FishUSA but to return the damaged rod I now have to pay an additional $7.00 for a shipping label (or pay the full return shipping myself) and will probably be charged a 15% restocking fee to return the damaged rod. I definitely DO NOT recommend buying from FishUSA - at least not fishing rods.
