It was nice stopping for coffee along the way and we ended the tour with a double Jamison at the dock. Thanks for making this a memorable day

They allowed our 90lb dog which was very kind in the close quarters of a speedboat! There is a whole procedure of parking away from the terminal (since it is so crowded nearby) and boarding at the terminal dock. They were mostly on time and had a helpful friendly attitude. My child fell asleep on the ride so it was smooth and calming enough! My only negative was we'd have appreciated more departure options and flexibility to change times if needed (provided there is room). We had trouble finding a lot of info on things to do with kids on Daufuskie (we learned there is not a lot for them; it is more for Boomers to drink) so we would've valued being able to return sooner, but it is what it is. Just the only drawback we had with service options. But we definitely recommend to others.

There was no representative of this company on island. This random person informed us that there were no 6 seaters available even though we paid for and reserved one. He told us we needed to call the company to see if we could get two 4 seaters. We couldn't get through on phone so he called for us. We did get 2 four seaters that were filthy. Fortunately one of our party had some wipes to clean the seats. On top of that one of the carts had a horn that kept on sounding for no reason. Overall terrible experience. Would not recommend this company

We had a pretty terrible experience with this company. We arrived at 11 AM, having made…read morereservations weeks in advance. Because we were staying overnight, we needed to have a golf cart with lights. We were given a cart for the day without lights And told to return later on, which we were happy to do. When we returned several hours later, there was still no golf cart. The attendant told us he would text us when the cart would be ready. However, he also said that he was leaving around five, so we returned around 4:30. He fitted us with a golf cart with lights, which proceeded to die about 15 minutes later. He proceeded to yell at us for using the golf cart too much that day and that we needed to save something to see the next day. When he switched us out with a functioning cart, he told us it would get us home, and that we should just go home and stay there for the rest of the day. By the way, batteries last 4 hours at least and we had used it way less than that. Which is crazy bc he gave us a cart with no battery! It was really upsetting that we got yelled at for a problem that was no fault of ours. This was terrible service. The carts were dirty and in poor condition. I want my money back. Use Mungeon carts instead.

I would strongly caution families against renting from this company based on our experience…read more We paid approximately $1,400 to rent two 26-passenger golf carts for three days on Hilton Head Island. We had six grandchildren with us, all under the age of nine, so safety was extremely important to us. The carts would only travel approximately 20 mph on roads with 35 mph speed limits, meaning we had traffic traveling significantly faster than us while we were carrying six young children. With each additional passenger, the carts became even slower. We were never made aware of this limitation when we rented the carts. Had we been told that we would be expected to drive these carts on 35-mph roads while only being able to travel around 20 mph, we absolutely would not have spent $1,400 on them. One of the carts was so slow that it had to be exchanged. The company refused to come to us, so we had to drive the extremely slow cart back ourselves to get it exchanged. After experiencing the carts firsthand, we immediately raised our concerns with the company. We explained that we had six small grandchildren with us and that we considered the situation unsafe. We wanted to return the carts after the first day and receive a refund for the remaining two days. The assistant manager told us they were not empowered to make that decision, so we repeatedly tried to reach the general manager, Lisa. This is where the customer service became completely unacceptable. Lisa would not return our calls. She would not speak with us. She would not acknowledge our safety concerns. We were not asking for a refund because we simply changed our minds. We were asking for help after determining that the carts were not appropriate for the roads we needed to travel and that we did not feel comfortable putting our six grandchildren in that situation. A company can disagree with a customer about a refund. That's business. But when a customer raises a legitimate safety concern involving six children, the general manager should at the very least have the professionalism to return the call and address it. Instead, we felt that once they had our $1,400, our concerns were no longer their problem. There was also no transparency about how golf-cart-friendly Hilton Head actually is for these particular carts. We were left feeling that the limitations should have been clearly explained before we committed to a very expensive three-day rental. The bottom line: * Approximately $1,400 for three days * Carts traveling only around 20 mph on 35-mph roads * Six children under nine traveling with us * One cart was excessively slow and needed to be exchanged * The company would not come to exchange it * We had to drive the slow cart back ourselves * We raised serious safety concerns * We requested to return the carts after one day and receive a refund for the remaining two * The assistant manager could not authorize a solution * The general manager, Lisa, would not return our calls or address the situation The carts themselves were disappointing, but the complete lack of concern from management was the biggest problem. If you are a family considering spending this kind of money on a golf-cart rental, ask very specific questions about actual speed, passenger load, the roads you will be driving on, and what happens if you determine the carts aren't safe for your situation. We paid a substantial amount of money and expected reasonable customer service when we raised a safety concern. Instead, we felt ignored and stuck with the rental after the company had our money. We will never rent from this company again, and based on our experience, we cannot recommend them to other families.

Inside the shop, they tested my battery charger, confirmed it was working properly, and did so without trying to sell me a new one. They even scheduled a pickup time so the cart could be checked out further. When Tim arrived to pick up the cart, I explained the problem in my garage. He took a quick look and resolved it on the spot. Despite driving out to my residence, he wouldn't accept any payment. That level of honesty and service is rare. If you have a Club Car or any other type of golf cart, I highly recommend giving this team a chance. If I ever need anything in the future, I know exactly where I'll be going. Thank you, Tim and the entire staff, for your help--especially right before Christmas!
