I booked a pontoon with a tube and life jackets for a 4 hr afternoon block for my family. Website made it SUPER easy to explore availability, pricing and options. Everything was transparent - no hidden fees, no fuel surcharges - just: boat, date, time, options, life jackets, done. Lock it in with contact and payment info, done. Once booked, some waivers needed signing (if this is your first boat rental experience, this is standard and to be expected) and that process was also super smooth and easy to complete electronically. Note: equally convenient was how clearly written and easy to understand the waiver docs were (note: all states require waivers like this to operate boats). I called to ask some questions and got a text response right away, followed by a return call soon after from Russell, the owner. Russell handled my excited questions with ease and I was set. I exchanged a few more text msgs on the day and his son Trent met us at the dock. He went over everything (controls, operation, safety, first-aid kit, tube, life-jackets - he even showed me of a few knots I hadn't seen before to use if we tied up anywhere). A few questions and within minutes we were boarded and on our way. Boat: clean, very comfortable leather seats, shade, tables, cooler, ladder, ropes. Everything worked and having not operated a pontoon boat previously (or any boat in about 8 years) I was very comfortable and happy navigating on the lake. Note: Lake Coeur d'Alene is BIG, with a lot of bays, inlets, topology and intricate shoreline. Pro Tip: if this is your first time renting or operating a boat on a body of water this size? You can easily get lost. Even with my past navigational experience on both oceans and lakes? I had to really concentrate on picking good way points and landmarks, and marking my throttle, speed and transit times, because hours later, after the sun shifted? Some of my marks had vanished! Where to go? We cruised South to fish for "ice cream" in Harrison proper. Plenty of space to dock and send the kids hunting for some mint chip or pralines and cream. Vibe there was super friendly and harbor was well marked and easy to navigate. We then cruised North past our original departure dock and then just parked it in the middle and went for a dip. We continued onward to explore Echo Bay and Arrow Point as well as a few others, then made our way back. Docking was easy, we tied up, unloaded, took our trash and the return was even easier. I've rented ski boats on Lake Tahoe and other vacation spots before but this was by far the best overall experience. Bonus points: there's a great food truck and restaurant dockside that s got plenty of what you need once your day is through. Cannot recommend Harrison Idaho Water Adventures more highly. It is so easy to have a bad experience at a busy vacation spot rental shop (mediocre boat, cheap gear, wonky booking, overpriced, hidden fees, poor customer service, etc., etc., etc.) ---- we had NONE of those experiences. This is a GREAT place to rent "fun" on Lake Coeur d'Alene!

The pick up was very simple and everything was explained thoroughly to us (I had never driven boat before but my friend had.) The main unknown before all of this was what exactly would the boat look like. I mean it has a picture on the website and all but anyone familiar with any sort of rental place, its like rolling the dice. I am quite pleased to say our boat was in fantastic condition. No motor issues, the upholstery was great, there was even a shaded canopy (which was not in the picture and my wife was _extremely_ grateful for). The tube was also in fine working order. To sum up: this was a great experience from start to finish. Communication on pick up, use and drop off were well detailed. The staff was already waiting for us and ready to go. The boat itself was top notch. Our entire day was super fun, which Harrison Idaho Water Adventure isn't directly responsible for but they sure as heck set us up for success! We will certainty rent from them again in the coming summers! (We actually rented 2 wave runners later the same week, but that's another review).

This year my mom discovered Praeder Ranch Resort. It was the perfect location for us. There are several family members with campers; the resort offers tent, partial and full sites to accommodate everyone. There is a lodge with wonderful rooms for everyone else (where we stayed). There is an indoor pool, an outdoor pool and a huge hot tub. Also offered is a game room, a great library, a gym and outdoor activities such as shuffle board, volleyball, basketball, frisbee golf, etc. We found trails to walk around to get some outdoor exercise. The lodge is well maintained and very clean; my wife and I very much enjoyed the indoor pool and sauna. Jeff and Tracy were wonderful and took good care of the entire extended family that was there. It's a little out of the way, but worth the trip. We shall definitely be back.

The invoice was approximately $288 which was close to the same I paid the previous year. A few weeks later I got my credit card charge and it was charged $288 twice. I called the marina and was told there is new ownership and that prices have approximately doubled, the invoice I was given was my reservation deposit of half. The new Marina owners also charged me for the use of the tube without telling me there was a charge for it. Previous years of renting the boat the tube was free. I was also charged a $16 processing fee that I was not told about ahead of time. Manager told me it was her word verses mine. Feel very deceived by new ownership.

I've managed a 100 space mobile home park on the river for over 18 years and although price increases do happen (3-5 yrs or so) we never did this annually to our park patrons. Sorry, $6,300 for summer season???? Let's break that down. There are approximately 3 months of usable enjoyable lake weather. That basically comes out to $525 per week. Sorry even if I exceed at work I only receive a 2% increase on my pay annually. Last year the marina decided to host a bunch of member events, issue certificates for $50 a free gas and two $50 certificates for food, vouchers, and purchased an 8 person shuttle golf cart to transport guests back and forth to honeysuckle for overflow parking. I never asked for any of those things and all of those "said upgrades" are funded through mooring fees. I am not interested in mingling with members or the Marina staff at wine mixers. I simply wanted a place to moore the boat so that I can enjoy time with my friends and family on the lake.

But their service department... ...the absolute worst. Not only did they lie directly to me about when they could get my new boat repaired, they lied about working on it for an entire week (looking at you Cessna). And when I was finally passed up to Josh,their service manager, I learned this was actually a top down issue. He said, & I quote, " I'm not going to apologize for my employee lying to you. You would have received that kind of service (being lied to) from any local shop." The only thing I could think is this guy must be some kind of DEI hire.... Moral of the story, take your boat ANYWHERE else. Hopes and prayers that Josh gets the therapy he needs to start caring about Tobler's service department customers again.
