DO NOT RENT A BOAT FROM THIS MARINA!!! They are very rude to their customers and do not care about…read morekeeping customers. We rented a pontoon boat 7/20/26 and paid for them to deliver the boat to our lake house that we rented. I was told by Kennedy that the boat would be dropped off 9am-8pm.( time is in the signed contract) We tried to contact the marina multiple times because the boat wasn't dropped off. No answer. There were 12 of us waiting for the boat to arrive at our dock 8 adults, 4 kids(1yr, 3yr, 6yr, 8yr) At 10 am still no boat so a few of us drove down to the marina(wasting boat time and gas $$) to see what the issue was. The very rude manager(Autumn) stated she did not know until that morning that she had to deliver a pontoon to us. (THIS IS NOT MY PROBLEM) I booked this rental AND PAID FOR IT ALONG WITH THE DELIVERY CHARGE 7/6/26($538.06 FOR 1 DAY) and had a reservation number. Autumn also claimed she answered our phone calls but couldn't hear us. I could not believe she is arguing with a customer. The boat finally arrived at 10:45am and was told they were late because they had to use our rental pontoon and gas to pick up another boat which was past our lake rental house. The boat had a 1/2 tank of gas which I have a picture of. I was also told the gas gauge was not accurate. Really?????Autumn told me the gauge was full when they left the marina.(Maybe it was but they used the gas to pick up another boat which was past our house.) Autumn didn't seem to understand this or even care. I was billed $48 for gas when they picked up the boat. We put $80(have the receipt) in gas in the boat but since the gas gauge wasn't working they could rip me off. Please everyone out there reading this RENT FROM ANOTHER MARINA!!! THIS BUSINESS ONLY CARES ABOUT MAKING MONEY OFF PEOPLE!!! It seems this same situation happened 6/29/24 which I just read in a review. You would think this operation would have learned from this 2 years ago but they really do not want to keep their customers happy. Terrible business!!!!Very unorganized if they didn't know they had to deliver a boat until the morning when the rude manager came in.

The tipple bridge is closed pending repairs due to flood damage, but it's still really cool to see!

There's even a scenic railroad with dog friendly accommodations that take you from Stearns into the Blue Heron station, which I'll definitely come back to do, as my dog partner in crime is terrified of trains.

We were very new to boating and we rented a pontoon for a day and had a blast. The rules and…read morerestrictions were simple and easy to follow. Parking was easy and plentiful. Great for families and responsible groups. The location is great and we went to Bubba Brews for lunch. When we returned the boat it was thoroughly inspected for damage. We kept the boat exactly as it was given to us and were not charged anything beyond the original rental fee + gas. Some tips: 1) Seating: I believe the boat could technically fit 10, but we only brought 6. The canopy only covers seating for 6, so it worked out very well. Even those that really love the sun can get overexposed without the canopy, so be careful about bringing more people. 2) Pontoon amenities: The pontoon has a Bluetooth, USB port, AUX port, and a cigarette style charger to keep your device powered. We had full LTE coverage most everywhere we went. There was room under the seats for keeping food and drinks cold. Canopy kept us mostly shaded when the sun was strongest. 3) We basically ignored the fuel gauge and went wherever we pleased. After a full day of running across the lake, and towing a bunch of people on tubes, we had used about 17 gallons of fuel. Boats use 100% gas and there's a slight markup on the marina, so grand total of about $50 at today's prices. 4) Apparently the law requires you to keep a paddle on the boat in case of emergency. This paddle is absolutely useless and that law is ridiculous. It is like using a squirt bottle on a wild fire. 865-boat-tow is the emergency paddle. Nice to haves: 1) We rented a tube and had a blast on it. However, the 90hp engine is a little weak for doing much anything. You certainly can't water ski/board. I wish they could go just a little faster, but even at their current speed, it's pretty fun and would recommend renting a tube. 2) I also wish they had a bigger pontoon, pontoon with a double canopy, or pontoon with an upper deck.

We had to give a 1 star review because zero stars was not an option. We rented 2 ski boats 4 months…read morein advance & paid a deposit. We called 2 months out to confirm they were still operating during Covid. They said they were fully operational. When we arrived, after driving 6 hrs, they had lost our reservation and said they did not have boats for us. They finally gave us one run down speed boat - only 2 years old and trashed inside and most gauges did not work- and one pontoon which we had to swap out for a different pontoon -also had multiple gauges not working- as we went to leave since they decided they wanted to work on that one. They gave us a discounted rate ONLY because we negotiated. They had no intent to make up for their loss of our reservation and giving us 2 poor boats. Two days into our trip, the speed boat broke down and was no longer useable. After they hauled the speed boat away, we went to the marina to pick up a Tritoon - the telescoping tow tower would not extend to the tow position. Had we not come to pick it up ourselves, we would have missed a complete other day boating. When we arrived to pick up the Tritoon, they still needed to clean it out, inspect it, and gas it up. When we returned the boats at the end of our trip, we attempted to renegotiate the price since the price we had agreed upon was for 1 speed boat for 4 days and 1 pontoon for 4 days, but we only had the speed boat for 2 days since it broke down. The manager, Tobi, finally said by her power she could give us $100 off and would talk to the owners the following week to see about a refund on top of the $100. We called Tobi back the following week as she instructed; she preceding to not remember our case and that the owners denied even giving us the $100 refund.
