You will have an amazing view while grasping in fresh air and soaking in California sunshine. Trip to Eureka is not completed until you do the cruise. My kids enjoyed it so much.

The management here treats their employees like garbage whether they have worked there since the…read morecompany took over the campgrounds and the marina or if they just started. The girls (so called bosses and, for the record, I wouldn't say so if even the slightest hint of maturity and or honestly and decency had been shown), yes, the girls do nothing but bicker back and forth to each other about everyone they can and attempt to get anyone they don't like in trouble like a bunch of high school kids with no respect for their customers or their employees. They recently forced the men to keep their pay the same while all the high school kids got raises and stated, "You will not get a raise until the high school kids wage matches yours. We are tired of them complaining." The "kids, technically new adults" lie about the adults that work there and are believed over staff that have worked there for over a decade and are actually believed by the two supposed boss' (the bickering girls in the main office that have lost the business 90% of their customers) despite direct evidence to the contrary. Why? Because if you're on their list of people they dislike they will not only disbelieve you but threaten you and your family if you don't change your story and pretend that things are all right and going just the way they want it to. The management uses their "security" cameras to pretend people are doing things they are not, i.e. stealing when you are stocking, playing with yourself when you are simply scratching or moving something due to the job forcing you into awkward positions having to fill boats on the water and things tend to get pinched! You're not allowed to defend yourself or refute their exaggerated and often fallacious claims. The Ruth Lake Community Services Districted used to shine light a lamp light in an oasis, now it is a rundown business run by cackling harpies ready to scoop your guts out after they are through torturing you. Do yourself a favor. Don't work here. Don't visit here or the Ruth Lake Campgrounds. Don't force yourself to regret attempting to visit Ruth anymore. The roads are garbage and have slid out in many places...for years now, the businesses, with the exception or Journy's End which is still a great place, are a joke and the heart ache you receive from your treatment will haunt you forever. I hope this helps prevent further painful memories. Best wishes on your next vacation. Sincerely, -Tortured in Ruth

Our camping group has continued to rent a ski boat from Trinity Lake Marina for a week every time…read moreto we go to Trinity Lake, which is almost every summer, and the experience is consistently excellent. Friendly and competent staff, boats that fit our needs well (can carry 10 people and pull riders on tubes, skis, wakeboards, etc.), etc. Ever since Eric and Shannon took over the operation, service has been great. This year we unfortunately damaged the boat (entirely our fault), and the marina handled the situation professionally and was I think very fair and reasonable in the amount that it charged us to cover the necessary repairs. As long as they'll have us back, we'll keep renting from TLM.

On Saturday morning I walked out on the front balcony to take look at this beautiful lake early in the morning. The guest next door (Daniel) and I started talking. I told her I want to take family out on a boat and so questions revolved around what kind of boat should I rent etc....She suggested to contact her friend Captain Michele and let her take all of us out. The best suggestion ever! Michele immediately returned my call and we decided on a half day on her ski boat starting at noon. We drove to Antler's Marina and met Captain Michele at the dock. The best day of summer!! She was super friendly yet professional. We did the paperwork and head out. Tubing, wake boarding, fishing etc. You name it and Michele arranged it all for us. She had all the equipment. All we had to do was show up with our sandwiches and beverages (The good kind). Captain Michele was our designated driver!!! Most fun ever! Or as my 8 year old son put it #bestsummerever!! Smiles and laughs and fun all the way till the evening hours. I would also like to mention that price was very reasonable too. We can't wait to go back. I will give Captain Michele a little bit more notice this time. Thank you so much Fun Factory!!

Michele is amazing. I sent a reservation inquiry and she called me back promptly that day. She was…read moreso upbeat and fun to talk to and genuinely excited to host me. She wasn't pushy at all and didn't upsell me anything - just gave me all the tips and info. We decided on a tandem snowmobile for an hour with a guide. We arrived 20 minutes late but she was so professional - she shortened and made the check in process so easy. There was a cabin with fire where you can change since Deer Mountain was quite cold and was snowing that day desolate the snow drought. She was mega attentive and taught us everything and told us exactly where we were going. She took couple of pictures for us and explained what we'll see had it not been so foggy. On the way back when we stopped at a viewpoint my boyfriend accidentally accelerated and we toppled right where the cliff started - Michele rushed over and helped us up and we genuinely concerned for our well being. We're so grateful she was our guide and can't recommend her enough. She's an amazing person with a beautiful smile and we definitely suggest everyone go snowmobile with her, especially first timers!

My most recent visit, Dungeness Crabs are in season after a delayed start! This small commerical marina actually has several docks running alphabetically, A through G - signage on the road frontage letting the passersby know what the mornings catch is and today it was our amazing local crab and our world class Kumamoto oysters, these petite beauties are a famous staple on the north coast waters here on Humboldt Bay. A marina coffeshop with restaurant are on site that has okay food and a full bar, there is also a charter house where some fishing vessels can be reserved by the hour, half day, day or longer. There is a Fisherman of the Sea memorial to all those who've made the ultimate sacrifice, working on the north coasts unforgiving and often dangerous waters. Ample parking at all the different docks. The coast guard also maintains a presence at this marina as well. The public can visit the docks and enjoy the views of old town waterfront, of the marina and Humboldt Bay out to the Pacific Ocean. A cool marina, where you can purchase freshly caught seafood right off the boat. Definately worth a visit and stop if you like fresh seafood, big commercial fishing boats, or just being on the water. 4 Stars 00669

We took a delightful, relaxing one hour plus harbor tour this past week with Captain Dan. (Masks…read moreare required and there's hand sanitizer, etc.) Dan knows everything about the harbor, including the boats, businesses, and people. You'll learn about the fish and wildlife, and see seals, etc. The electric boat is very quiet and Captain Dan is a pleasant, low key kind of guy. He takes up to 6 people on the boat during Covid times. We have eaten and driven around the other side of the harbor, but really enjoyed seeing the working fishing boats on this side. We learned exactly what commercial fishing life entails. Highly recommended! Kristin answers the phone when you call and book. Refreshing to talk to a human.

I attempted to make a reservation for the harbor tour with Captain Dan for my anniversary. When I called I reached a voicemail inbox and began to leave a message, but in the middle of it someone picked up - no greeting or other info, just a very brusque "hello?" Out of simple curiosity I asked if they ever do whale watching trips at other times of year, but was abruptly interrupted by the person shouting, "why doesn't anyone ever look at the website, we don't do that here!!" I was so taken aback that I apologized and hung up. The tour genuinely looks like it would be lovely and I was interested in what Captain Dan would be able to tell us about! But I'm not about to risk continuing to being treated so rudely on a special occasion.
