I am a founding member of the Suntex Boat Club at Lake Don Pedro, CA, and I love it…read more My membership makes me a partial owner of 5 boats right now. Because we are new chapter, it is totally easy to make reservations on the weekend and brain-dead easy during the week. I want enough but not too many people to join so we can grow the fleet but still be able to book. They have 3 new boats arriving in May 2021, so we will get a nice upgrade from regular marina rental fare. I was considering buying a boat for my empty-nest life, but do not want to deal with: buying, insurance, maintenance, trailer, storage, cleaning, towing, launching, and I don't even have a truck, so boat club is perfect for us. I used a boat last weekend, and everything was super-smooth. Because I am club, they treated me a bit better, and most of the paperwork was done when I arrived. I also have a reservation for Mother's Day in a few weeks. At Don Pedro, we get the boat all day, which is 10 to 4. The full-day rental makes it easy to get to the other side of the lake and stop, swim, play, and chill without feeling that the meter is running at $100 an hour. The boat club has the same impact as a ski pass; it makes you more integrated with your hobby and takes away the pain of paying for the rental on the day you use it, so you don't really notice. It's a buffet; the more often you go, the more value you get. I bought the Captain's membership for $3000 with a $500 discount and pay $375 a month, so the breakeven is 7 days on the water in the first year and 5 days each year after. Also, the skis, boards, and tube rentals are free, which cost $65 a day each without club. For Northern California, you can use the club at Lake Don Pedro and Lake Berryessa. I heard they will open a location in Southern California, maybe at Marina Del Rey. You can also use all the other locations throughout the US.

Joined the boat club a few months ago and couldn't be happier. Strongly considered buying a boat…read morebut decided that towing, maintaining, fixing, cleaning and everything else sounded like a lot of work that would take away from the boating experience. At Suntex you just return the boat with fuel and walk away. That staff is great too and online reservation system is easy. I also understand that they are getting 10 new boats in December!

Have had a slip here for 4 years…read more There is one dock that seems to be a "bar chain" not exactly family friendly but if you like bar hopping on the lake this marina has a spot for you. The staff when you get gas are perfectly polite, and very helpful. Unlike at Chandlers where those staff are rude and love to down talk captains cove. They are making improvements but would love to see more amenities here. They have limited items in their retail, no restaurant, but the bathrooms are very clean so that is a plus. We love it here it's 5 minutes from our front door. I would love to see more improvements most importantly is the boat ramps. Even though we have an annual slip, still have to pull boat out for maintenance annually and if ramps always closed it makes for huge pain in the ass

Absolute worst experience I've ever had renting a boat. If I could give it -5 I would. Booked a…read moremediocre 19 foot deck boat. Knew it was going to be an average experience since it was a cheap boat with an outboard motor. But what I didn't know was that my guests and I were going to have to be cleaning their own boat for them. This thing was INFESTED with spiders. On every seat, in every compartment, at both ladder locations, in the captains chair, under neath the steering wheel, I mean everywhere...strike one. Rented two accessories, a tube and a wakeboard. The tube was half deflated and two of the four handles ripped mid ride sending a passenger flying off. Then switched to the wakeboard. The rope snapped within 5 seconds. The rider didn't even have the chance to standup... strike two. Went back to the Marina to pickup another guest joining our group. Asked about another rig that wasn't infested with massive spiders and to get a new wakeboard rope. The entire staff seemed annoyed by us asking for something to be done to make our time more enjoyable. They notified us there were no more wakeboard ropes so SOL there. We were transferred over to another boat which was great. Except this was ALSO infested with spiders and the staff watched us as we grabbed a hose to clean off a nest of spider eggs (all alive) on the bow of the boat. So clearly they don't clean ANY of their equipment before getting a rental ready before a day of boating which blows my mind. Bring a power washer because they have a "do it yourself" attitude. We pushed off and didn't even make it out of boat slip before we noticed the radio did not work. We notified the staff and they scoffed with a snide remark of "turn the bottom on then"... strike THREE. Went back to our original boat and said screw it we will deal with killing spiders all day as long as we can enjoy some music. Ignition seemed to not crank normal and after a stiff turnover the key BROKE in half. We were drifting in the marina until a staff member could run over to a nearby slip to tie us down and get a spare key. Do yourself a huge favor and do NOT give this place any of your money. They will make you feel as if you're a massive inconvenience and you better like the cheap boat and the cheap accessories.

I own 2 TFO Fly Rods and love them! My "travel" favorite is a 5 weight, 9 foot 4 piece rod which I…read moreordered as a combo with case and a slick Ross reel. It is a Lefty Kreh Healing Waters series which was not only a great performing setup but was far less than comparable combos. One selling point is the warranty. $25 will replace a broken rod section. I learned all about that this week. My last time out my rod tip section got caught in some riparian underbrush and I snapped it. This week I was near TFO and decided to drop by with it on the off chance they could fix me up. They did! I paid the $25 & the replacement tip section was provided that was exact in color, fit and design to the original-except unbroken. Not only did they cheerfully replace my broken rod section, they also gave me a cool dark Olive TFO cap. I got to pick it among several colors. Proudly sporting it and telling everyone in my fishing circle that TFO rods are by far the best buy in the sport!

I've been buying TFOrods since the 1990s. I have purchased over 40 rods. I chose this company…read moresolely because of their excellent customer service and warranty policies. Recently, I had a legacy two handed rod brake mid cast, at the junction between two of the sections. This was captured on a GoPro. Sent it in for warranty replacement. The customer service department told me that it is my fault that the rod broke because I "did not seat the two sections together correctly". I have used the repair service and warranty service more times than I can count in the past 30+ years. I am very disappointed in the decline in their customer service lately. This was a proving point to me that their company has made a decline in recent management and warranty policies. As a result, there is no longer a reason for me to buy rods from them. I will be choosing a company that is willing to honor their warranty.

Very patient and easy going. He has all the equipment you might need or you can being your favorite rod and reel. If you want to keep your catch for a tasty meal (nothing like fresh fish). Steve will filet the fish for you so you can take your catch home. Steve doesn't use live bait. That's cheating. This is real fishing. It's active fishing so come prepared to cast (and catch) A LOT of fish. July is great for top water action. The big catfish come in November and December. There is no bad time of year at Lake Lewisvillle. If you are looking for a great time and a fantastic guide, look no further. Steve is the best!!!
