If you are interested in a new boat or need service on your existing boat, I highly recommend Midwest Marine. Five stars guys. Keep up the good work.

We purchased a brand-new boat from Midwest Marine in Grandview, MO, and the experience has been…read moreextremely disappointing. The boat was delivered late, the electronics we were promised would be installed were untouched for 3 more weeks, and worst of all, the boat quit running shortly after delivery. We reached out to the owner--he called back once on a Sunday and never followed, until a formal complaint letter was sent. There was never a resolution! Poor communication, broken promises, and no accountability. Be cautious if you're considering doing business here.

A true midwest Osais! LOVE CLINTON MARINA…read more We started coming to Clinton Marina roughly 7 years ago, back then, it was a nice marina with a good ship store. Wasn't special by any means but it was clean, well taken care of, and had a friendly staff. It was exactly what you'd want out of a lake marina. The ship store had what you needed and made some pretty good pizzas. However, the couple that took over ownership have decided to turn it into a destination and boy howdy have they done a great job. The whole atmosphere has become electric. Yes, it still is VERY well maintained but the changes they've made have been fantastic. The expansion on the back side, is amazing. First Fridays are killer, the ship store is awesome and the pizzas are still off the hook delicious. I hope, as do the new owners, this place turns into the epic getaway that it can be. They're making all the right moves to turn Clinton Marina into a little paradise just outside Lawrence. My only concern is parking. On busy holidays, beware, parking can get a little tough and require a bit of a walk. Outside of the parking lot issue, Clinton Marina is a great little Oasis smack dab in the middle of the prairie.

When I brought the boat in Linda had a mechanic come out and show me how to start the engine and even took the time to check the oil in the lower unit. Another boat shop might have said to park the boat in the lot and come back in a few weeks, but Linda and her mechanic went out of their way to get me and my boat back in the water. Thank you so much Arnie's. You and your staff are top notch and a pleasure to do business with.

Customer Service goes a long way in our book and we feel we have experienced Superior Customer…read moreService with First Choice Marine! We found the prices to be excellent, when researching a few items needed to get the boat ready for Spring splash. I'm obnoxiously thrifty and after loading up my online cart at 4 different retailers, item for item, First Choice was best price. Now, the customer service part: we did have to contact them several days after placing our order, as our order wasn't marked as shipped. Very quick, pleasant reply stating that 1 item was out of stock and order would ship when it was available. We asked that they ship the rest of order, which they obliged. Order was received 2 days later...In full! One item was black bottom paint and, unfortunately, the can lid had opened in the box, so we were greeted with a box full of paint, which, of course, ended up on our counters, floors, cabinets, hands, clothes, the cat and dog, etc... when we opened the box. Sigh. Emailed company to let them know and again, very prompt and pleasant reply, stating they would let us know when they could get a replacement out. Next day, they called (a nice touch over an email) to let us know a replacement would be sent out, with apologies and promises of better packing. So... Minus 1 star for forcing the customer to track down their order, rather than updating customer about shipping delay. No loss of stars for the spilled paint...crap happens and the flung black paint made our orange cat look like a tiger, which was cool for a second. But, full 4 stars for prices and superior customer service. If we hadn't received this level of service from Dan, this review would have gone in a different direction! We will definitely continue shopping with them and pass on their website info to the other river rats!

Warning to 5th wheel/camper Owners -- Avoid Croft Trailer in Smithville…read more I really wanted to like this place. I trusted Croft Trailer with my 36' dual-axle RV, hoping for peace of mind before a 3-month trip with my family of six. I asked them to inspect the suspension, repack the bearings, and do a general safety check. I explained everything clearly -- I wasn't asking for diagnostics, just straightforward maintenance. But what followed was nothing short of neglect. I got on their waiting list June 6th. Dropped off my trailer June 13th. Picked it up again -- completely untouched -- on June 30th. From the start, it was a constant runaround. "We'll call you tomorrow." "We'll have a quote soon." But the calls never came. When I followed up, I started getting excuses like, "It's too hot to walk outside and look at it." Meanwhile, my trailer sat there -- unused, uninspected, and ignored. After they moved it in the lot, they left the power on and completely drained my batteries to 0%. No heads-up. No apology. No accountability. When I finally went to pick it up -- now just weeks before our trip -- they admitted other customers were being prioritized and my trailer was being delayed because it was "too big" and parked outside. Too big? It's 36 feet -- a pretty standard dual-axle travel trailer. Isn't this your job? Bottom line: If you have a larger trailer or need work done with any urgency, Croft isn't the place. They left me scrambling and did absolutely nothing to help. You're better off going literally anywhere else.

They had the battery I needed, but due to my truck's configuration, installing was going to take a little while. Luckily, there is a shop next door better equipped for more difficult installations and they started removing my old battery while I paid for the new one.

If they don't have the item in stock, they'll check the inventory of the stores around and have me go pick it up from the other store. I would rather have them do a store transfer and for me to pick it up at a later time from their store. The store is quite busy all the time since its near quite a lot of auto shops.

The lower unit on my Mercury Optimax 150 froze. When I checked the oil, only a few ounces came out…read more Sportsman's was the last to service it in December 2022 when they changed the oil and replaced the impeller. It appears they did not refill the lower unit with oil (see photo). There is no sign of an oil leak after running the boat many times since I refilled it. They have no explanation of where the oil went but claim they are not responsible. I even asked if a pressure test concluded there was no leak would that be an indication that they didn't fill it with oil, but they said it couldn't possibly be their fault. I have been a loyal annual customer since 2012, but they have now told me to take my business elsewhere. I recommend not doing business with their service department. If I find a leak, I will gladly update this review.

AND probably other misc things that I have just never needed before It has been my experience that the owners and regular campers are friendly and go out of their way to make you feel comfortable. The only reason that I knocked off a star is because the campsite needs some maintenance. However, the new ownership has made a huge difference in only a few months. So, I expect to be able to give it 5 stars by next summer!
