We rented two kayaks during Memorial Day weekend and there was plenty of selection available when we arrived about half hour after they opened. Life jackets are provided and included in the price. Tips: - Park I'm the North Ramp Lot but walk down to the marina, not the North Ramp! (we made that mistake) - We walked down and back but there is also a free shuttle available about every ten mins. Drivers work for tips. - The walk back up to the parking lots is quite steep and on a hot day after paddle boarding we regretted opting to walk about half way up - Two hours seems like the best amount of time to explore a good amount of the lake and paddle back to the marina without being too tired - Restrooms are available right next to the store front where you rent.

If you own your own tube, you can still rent a bus ride for $19. This is definitely an Arizona summer classic. Wow!! I'm updating to say that in all my 21 years I didn't realize that there was a difference between rafting and tubing and that there were 2 different of options on what you can do to go down the river. How freaking cool and thank you to the business owner for educating me!

This review is for a RAFTING & CAMPING trip (lol, I can't believe how many people have left reviews…read morefor tubing)! It's going to be my longest review ever! Where do I start?!? I have wanted to raft the Grand Canyon (Colorado River) my whole life so when my friend asked me if I wanted to raft the Salt River I said "heck yeah"!! My 2 top takes from this trip are RESPECT (respect these guides, the river and the land...they are awesome and deserve every bit of it) and don't judge a book by its cover... Upon arrival my friend became really nervous (she even had me getting nervous). She walked over and found our guide Ara and immediately came back feeling a lot better. We had plenty of time to get our PPE, buy some shirts/stickers/sunglass straps (cheaper than Amazon) and use the porta potty. An awesome guide explained safety instructions and insisted people listen! Respect him - it could save your life. He made sure everyone could see and hear him. Safety is their #1 important thing! All the rafts left at the same time. Us 3 and our guide in one boat. The rest of the boats seemed to be a high school trip. You do some practice paddling in the eddy before the first rapid. On that first rapid you have someone from the team taking your picture! After some amazing fun we stopped for lunch where the guides gave us chips and salsa to start while they made chicken fajitas (the chicken is separate from the onions and peppers which my friend appreciated because she doesn't like those veggies). We had plenty of time to eat, drink water and use the porta potty. I highly suggest doing the full day because this is where it would end for the half day/no lunch trips. It is soooo worth it to continue on. We got to learn a lot about our amazing guide Ara, we instantly trusted her beyond words. She has years of experience and has paddled rivers from AZ to Alaska! She has her own raft and constantly going on new adventures. Looking at her...young and a girl...you may second guess going with her but this is why I say never judge a book by its cover! She was amazing!!! We all had absolutely 100% trust in her!!! The whole team is on top of things. I was so impressed how they handled a raft that was pulled over. One by one they pulled to the side and waited or assisted the stopped raft. Later I overheard one of the kids say he purposely fell off the raft - don't do that. It's not cool - respect the river and the guides!! They drove us back to our truck and dropped Ara off at camp (where we had lunch) to start preparing for our evening of appetizers and dinner. We drove back to camp and set up our tents and Ara brought over a wonderful charcuterie board (I love these)!! After setting up Ara had a nice fire going while she finished up dinner. She made the most amazing Alfredo/pesto tortellini, salad and bread! It was so good I forgot to take a picture!! While we were eating she mentioned something about baking a cake (I was thinking it must be one of the guide's birthday's). Nope!! She baked us a pineapple upside down cake in the cast iron Dutch oven! Omg so delicious! All the guides in the camp were so welcoming and friendly! They invited us to play horseshoes, sat with us by the fire and really made us feel included (after all this is their home for the season). The next morning Ara had yogurt, fruit, leftover cake (my friend was really happy about that) orange juice and coffee waiting while we tried to wake up. We took our time...Ara always made sure things flowed on our time. She never pressured us or rushed us - it was absolutely wonderful. She cooked us a nice breakfast of croissant sandwiches and we had to pack up and head out. We made sure to tip her (and if I could have made it 100% of the cost I would have) she hugged us and we said our goodbyes! Everyone we met was amazing!! Ara, Annie the dog, Stu and G-String (my ears must of been waterlogged because I swear that's what his name was - lol). I wish I remembered more names but these were our top favorites. They have me wanting to do the 5 day trip next!!

Teri and Erin, our guides, were wonderful. The trip was seamless - they texted us the location to meet them, had day passes for our car, and then transported us to the intake location. They had water for us, and snacks during a mid-trip stop, and Teri took pictures the whole trip, so we didn't have to be concerned about bringing our phones or cameras on the trip. They made it so easy for us to just relax and enjoy the experience. Will definitely do this again and highly recommend it for others!

Gary, the owner is unreliable and shady. He charged us for work that never got done along with…read moreovercharging for items he was supposed to have done. We are both retired and on social security so appare we were an easy mark. We paid up front because he said he needed us to so he could order parts he never ordered.

We disputed the charges with PayPal and won allowing us to recover some of our loss. All in, he charged over $10,000 and we recovered about $3,300. Stay away from this guy!!

Only as soon as he got the part he said it actually wasn't the coil and he needed to test more things. Stood around chatting for a couple hours with about 15 non consecutive minutes of work put into the engine he said he needed to take his wife home and never came back. He didn't do anything but unplug the coil and leave with my $295! Oh and get this, he spent a good portion of the time just virtue signaling, telling me how he doesn't understand why people don't respect each other blah blah blah then steals my money! Keep in mind I do not live in Arizona, I'm just driving through and I'm poor af. So now I had to find another mechanic and pay to have it towed to the shop because I can't trust these sleazy "mobile mechanics"

I'd stay away from Primitive RV/Marine in 2023. here's my experience:…read more 14Feb requested an inspection quote for my 2017 MicroMinnie here on Yelp, declined the $499 plus $125 for 132-point inspection, Agreed to $350 for two hours of inspection notes from Ray. 07Mar appointment was at 10:00am, and when I arrived, the receptionist/desk guy did not know what type of RV I had, or what my appointment was for. Resolved the issue talking to the actual technicians and got some good info. Left travel trailer there and was told by the end of the week (4 business days) I would get inspected and then get the results that following Monday. 11Mar nothing heard all week, so I messaged on Yelp asking for an update. Was told Monday I'd get a call with info. 14Mar messaged again saying I hadn't heard back Monday or Tuesday. Was told there was a delay for pricing some parts and many employees didn't come to work. Will get the inspection report ASAP. "this isn't our usual experience, apologies" 15Mar again was told I would get the info by the end of the day. 16Mar I messaged again, asking what was going on. Was told the next morning my RV would be the first priority. 17Mar got a voicemail about the results, and 11:35am got a DocuSign via email with a $3,500 Work Order request. I chose to pick-up Monday morning to get another quote from another technician, since my travel trailer is a 2017 and only has 8,000 miles, mostly stored in the shade by an older couple before i bought it. 18Mar I asked if 11am was less chaotic for pick-up on Monday, but I never got a text back. 20Mar asked Monday at 10:00am again if 11:00am would work. Picked-up trailer and after my credit card was charged, it was $364 instead of the agreed no-tax $350. it truly was the icing on the cake; getting charged a fee (credit card fee? not sure, since it was never brought-up, and i later saw it on the receipt). Ray/Timothy at the end of all of this did not even offer to help me exit the packed parking area, unsurprisingly. He just acted like this was how it was, industry-wide. Because of all the clusterf***, I asked for a discount on the bad experience, and Ray/Timothy said it wasn't possible and made many excuses. I mentioned that competitor Top Notch RV does a complimentary lube while the wheels/hubs are already off: "a pre trip inspection is $278. That's 2 hours for me to go over your entire electrical system, appliances, plumbing, perform a gas leak test, roof inspection and do a general once over of your entire trailer. If you would like your bearings re-packed and brakes cleaned and adjusted which I highly recommend being done every year especially if you're going on a big trip it's $350" Primitive could easily clean/pack the bearings and clean/adjust the brakes while the hubs are off during the inspection, but i'm not sure even the $500 "Full Inspection" includes this. Mostly, I feel taken advantage of because I was super lenient and accommodating, but basically I paid $364 for my camper to be gone for almost 2 weeks, and for the techs to tell me that the tires and brakes are totally bad and unsafe. I took the camper to my local tire shop (Ron's in Tempe AZ) and they had the bearings and brakes cleaned/adjusted/lubed within a day for $250 total, and said the date of the tires and brakes isn't the only metric for safety (my tires aren't dry-rotted at all, but Primitive wanted to charge me for 4 new tires and 4 new brake hubs with parts costs double of what their competitor Top Notch quoted me. Also of note, Primitive RV doesn't have any certified/master RVIA/etc. technicians. Ray/Timothy claimed this was because people who are certified inspectors can't do the actual repairs after an inspection. This seems strange, since all the other companies around Phoenix quoted me for both inspections and repairs. I think he was trying to use some word trickery about when using RV comprehensive insurance, but I wasn't using insurance. 2/5 stars, would not do business with them again. I'll be leaving this review on other sites as well, which I rarely do (want to prevent other people from getting poor customer service and wasted time). Super let-down. I blocked Ray/Timothy here on Yelp, but I'm sure he/Primitive will post the usual excuses below this when my review hits. My guess is there will be something about being "a little confused" about my bad review, since I declined the full inspection (this is irrelevant to my argument about customer service and fraudulent attempts to fleece me out of new brakes and tires for no reason). He'll probably claim the tires are from 2015 and the brakes are from 2016, which according to some publication are 'unsafe' (yet my local shop said there's no dry-rot and they are fine for another year with tons of tread/pads). I'm sure he'll claim they went "above and beyond" to make sure I got what I needed, and they gave me lots of good info (this is also irrelevant to my complaints of double-priced parts and 13 days).
