    I've been on the hunt for solid paddle boarding spots that aren't too far from Milwaukee…read more We tried the pond at Veterans Park on the lakefront in Milwaukee, but I was so worried about falling in the water (it's not clean...at all) that I didn't enjoy it. We tried Pewaukee Lake, but there was a bit too much motor boat action to enjoy paddle boarding. I was flummoxed, until I spoke to someone who lives in Delafield. She recommended Lower Nemahbin Lake. Yahtzee! With free parking and easy access to a kayak/paddle board dedicated dock, Lower Nemahbin Lake is the perfect lake for us! Clean lake water flanked by lush green without too much motor boat activity (it isn't a wake-free lake but boaters are respectful and aren't abundant), we couldn't ask for a better location for paddle boarding. It has an anchored dock in the middle of the lake that we love paddling out to for an afternoon picnic on the lake (and to let the kiddo get some dock jumping/swimming in). It's also kinda fun to paddle under the overpass. Last time we went through, we were able to see a birds nest with peeping baby birds. All in all, a great spot to spend a leisurely Sunday afternoon. Get to it!

    Easy access: ***** Boat traffic: ***** (not a lot)…read moreWater quality: ***** Free access: ***** Lower Nemahbin Lake is located in Waukesha County in the Village of Summit. This review is for the lake in general for kayaking or paddle boarding. We have been kayaking and paddle boarding for three years now and been to 6 different lakes. I've lived on Okauchee Lake and grew up boating on many of these lake. The public access is down Sugar Island Road just off of I94 provides quick and easy access to the lake which is a bonus. Parking is limited but many cars don't seem to follow the signs which limits 10 cars to the parking lot. Without DNR manning and charging people this will happen. Still plenty of room to unload your gear and a short 100 feet walk or so to the kayak launch area with a short 20 feet pier. There is a public launch for boats but is for small fishing boats as it is a shallow launch and very shallow water for a long way past the island. The shallow water way has a sandy bottom so very little to no weeds and warmer water. Lower Nemahbin Lake is a 239 acre lake located in Waukesha County. It has a maximum depth of 36 feet. Visitors have access to the lake from a public boat landing. Fish include Panfish, Largemouth Bass, Smallmouth Bass, Northern Pike and Walleye. Overall a Great Lake to kayak, canoe or paddle boarding.

    I have stored and maintained our pontoon boat at Retzlaff's for the past 8 years. They pick up the…read moreboat at end of season and bring it back when the season begins. Brian their manager, has always been friendly, courteous and informative. If he didn't have an immediate answer for me, he would do a little research and get right back to me. This year the impeller broke while out on the lake. I called Brian and he sent D J and Dave to pick up the boat, they fixed it the next day and got it back to me by the third day. What made this so special is that I know they were swamped with the delivery of boats. However, once I told Brian about my grandkids coming over for a promised ride he expedited everything. D J and Dave always have a smile on their faces and are quick, prompt and professional during pick up and delivery. Retzlaff's is fortunate to have individuals of this caliber represent their business.

    i have been a customer for probably about 16 or so years. Their customer service was always really…read morepoor but I put up with it for the location near multiple lakes. As a long standing customer, I will tell you a few things. 1.) I stored my boat with them and it would take them up to six months at times to cash my check. I had to take a ride from MKE to Oconomowoc multiple times to ask them to cash my check as they don't answer the phone. 2.) On more than one occasion I had a rodent problem during winter storage. The last time rodents chewed through wires. 3.) I had repairs done with them and they were always late, frequently saying next week and then next week again ad infinitum. I remember one time, I called repeatedly because no one answered the phone. The POS owner Rob Hamer finally answered and said, "I cant get any work done with the phone ringing off the hook." Hire someone to answer the phone. 4.) One time during the run up for summer storage, they threw my boat cover in what looked like Dextron fluid completely soaking the back half of the new cover. I politely called the owner ( he finally answered the phone) and his response was, "We're only human." Understatement of the Century. 5) Lastly, I had been with them so long, there was a time when you could do minor repairs in their boat yard. Apparently that changed somewhere along the line and they never told me. There is fine print on the bottom of the storage agreement.. You'd think they'd tell long-standing customers about the policy change. I recently spliced a wire in my boat which took a bit longer than an hour, apparently Rob Hamer saw I was on the property that long after reviewing his surveillance tapes. He calls me at work. I say, "Hey what's up Rob, "and he starts barking at me loudly. Come get your boat, we'll return your check. I had just paid. I asked why. He said I told you not to work on your boat on the yard. I told his lying behind that he had not and if he did, I would have done the repair elsewhere. He started yelling, YOU SIGNED A PIECE OF PAPER. YOU SIGNED A PIECE OF PAPER - apparently referencing the rental agreement. I got angry and said I've been a customer for almost 20 f@cking years. You watched me install my boat seats in the yard years ago. I didn't know the policy had changed. After that Rob Hamer said, "I don't appreciate your language and we'll have to see what the insurance says after uploading the tapes (whatever that means). After that I was finished. Convenient location to the lakes wasn't worth it. I came and pulled the boat the next day and the secretary gave me back my check. He wasn't around. Yes I should have read the fine print but when a customer has been with you that long, you should probably tell them about the policy change or they will assume it's business as usual. I learned a lesson. I will never ignore so many red flags for the sake of convenience. Avoid this business like the plague. The owner Rob Hamer needs a lesson in customer service and how to treat people in general.
