Rented a SEA-DOO, had a blast. Reservation and check-in process was a breeze with the friendly and knowledgeable staff. Equipment was in excellent condition, price was great. Highly recommend and will be a repeat customer. Thanks! read more

We had the worst experience atbthe Walnut Beach location yesterday. We initially called asking about rentals. We were told nothing was available until after 4pm and were asked to pay on the phone to book but were not given any other details on what else would be required for booking. Since we were staying at the Walnut Beach Resort, we decided to just go book in person. We rented a boat and a sea doo for an hour and a half starting from 4:30. We filled in all our waiver forms online earlier and arrived at 4pm, as asked to by the crew, to be briefed and seated. They had others they were attending to and didn't even start our briefing until 4:15. We were a large group with kids as young as a year old and they were getting very hot and irritated with the life jackets on so obviously they began to cry. There were a couple other customers whi they wanted to brief along with us and it was extremely uncomfortable for everyone to wait for the crew to get their things done and start briefing. They tried to rush through, not going much into operating details, and get us on board. We finally departed at 4:50pm. Logically, we assumed our return time would be 6:20pm (1.5hr) but we were not even told what time to return. Because we were quite a few people, and everyone obviously wanted to experience both the boat and sea doo, we had CONFIRMED IN ADVANCE that it would be ok for us to come back to the marina and swap people then do a round and return for a swap again, as many times as needed, and we had been told that would be ok. Because we weren't briefed properly about the boat operation, when we left, the operator at the time pushed the throttle up completely, not knowing that was full power, and the boat took off very fast. She did not expect that and was shocked but quickly put it down again to slow it and brought it under control. When that happened though, the crew girl at the dock shouted rudely and cursed in front of everyone. This was definitely not professional behavior and especially when it was an unintentional mistake due to their own lack of explanation. The entire time, that crew girl had the worst attitude towards us, and they scowled when we came back for our first swap, telling us that we couldn't do swaps there anymore. We were quite upset and requested for one more time at least and they grudgingly said that would be the last and gave us a lot of attitude. When we came back for the third time, it was 5:50pm, the guy was guiding the boat in, it was very slow and the engine off. The boat slid against the moving poles and he said that's ok and to keep steering towards them. Then the girl runs down and says we hit the pole and chipped the boat. The guy even said it wasn't that fast and those poles wouldn't damage it but she insisted we hit the last pole that has metal on the bottom. She said she would take pictures and send to the manager and we would have to pay damages. We told her that we didn't chip it, there were so many chips and scratches from before but she wouldn't listen and they made us get off and said that our time was up. How was that possible when we should've had it until 6:20? They said that the time taken foe the briefing was all part of it and our time had started at 4:30 and because we were a large group, they had taken more time. That's the most ridiculous and unprofessional explanation I've heard! They had others there too for the briefing so now they're using everyone's paid time? We were extremely frustrated at this point and we asked to have the picture emailed to us and also to have the manager call us directly but we were neither sent the picture nor contacted by the manager. This is the worst experience we've ever had with boat rentals, and we've rented many times previously. I even have my boat license and am well aware of boat rules and operations. We will never recommend them to anyone and will make sure everyone is aware of their terrible service and unprofessional behavior. Update: They contacted us to apologize for the experience and did not charge for the alleged damage because they found that we were not liable read more

Overall good fun experience, but one of the staff was power tripping a bit and giving the "just so you know for next time" speech. Spare me the lectures. Other than that it was a good time. read more

Faith was excellent and helpful. We rented Seadoos. Good equipment, new, and well maintained. We also did a boat charter however the weather turned and they were kind enough to refund our booking. Really appreciate it! I've had Seadoos and a boat for 15 years since I was a teen. This company is great!! read more

Excellent experience with two one-hour Sea-Doo rentals on Osoyoos Lake. Staff were knowledgeable and provided very thorough pre-trip briefings; equipment was in very good condition and ran flawlessly. Our 9 year old son thoroughly enjoyed his first PWC rides. Highly recommend this company to other travellers in the Osoyoos area. read more

Wakepilot - Fun on Osoyoos Lake! - Jet Skis Near Me - Osoyoos, British Columbia

We rented two sea doos and tube behind each. Within 5 minutes both sea doos engines got tangled in the ropes.They didn't have the tools to fix the problem apparently. They did not refund us the money and charged us a damage charge. We did not misuse the machines within those 5 minutes. Do not rent from this place. read more

Super easy to rent via the website. We also had to call and talk to the staff about our rental and they were very helpful and accommodating to us. The boat was amazing and so much fun! We loved being on the lake, the pontoon boat was so easy to just park in the water and then jump in the water for a swim or float then we would climb back on board and move onto another area or pull people on the tube. The boat was great because we had a huge group of parents and kids and it fit us all comfortably. I would highly recommend Wakepilot to anyone wanting to rent a boat!! read more

This is our third season with Wakepilot (private charter with coach for wakesurfing) and will certainly be coming back.

We've rented boats, seadoos, and equipment from Wakepilot for a number of years now. Always top notch gear and great coaches. They can't be beat for professionalism, safety, and quality. Well worth the investment in what is always the highlight of the summer for the kids. I could spend many tens of thousands of dollars on a boat, trailer, gear, fuel, a truck to haul it all around to have the experience. Or spend a few hundred dollars renting better stuff from the best operation on Osoyoos Lake. It's a no brainer. read more

Rented a Sea Doo from Wakepilot twice in the past two weeks and, in both instances, I was extremely happy with the price, service, and vehicle. Pricing was exactly as advertised, with no surprise charges and no effort by staff to sell me extras I didn't want. Staff were very friendly and helpful and did their best to get through the obligatory form signing and safety spiel as quickly as possible. The Sea Doo was in great shape and ran well. Can't imagine going anywhere else for my next rental. read more

Booking and communication beforehand was easy! The seadoos appeared to be quite new, and we had a great time! The young man working there was very friendly and went through all the safety protocols with us beforehand. Seadoos were ready for us when we arrived. Great experience, would recommend and book again. read more

It's our second time using Wakepilot - first in 2017 where my kids had a blast learning wakeboarding and wake surfing and just yesterday where we rented out sea-doos and again wakeboarding. The instructors are always knowledgeable and friendly- I can't remember the instructor's name in 2017 and Patrick who helped us so much yesterday. The equipments are new and in great condition and the whole staff was very friendly and accommodating with all our requests. We will definitely use Wakepilot again when we come back to Osoyoos. Great job. read more

This place is good. Staff at Walnut was a few gals that did a great job getting us going. It was a very easy enjoyable experience. We will rent from them again. They are very laid back and make the experience of renting a boat for an inexperienced person non stressful and fun! thank you. read more

Experience was amazing. Service from beginning to end very good. Always recommend this to family and teens. Price was amazing

Been out with Wakepilot many times, always the highlight of our vacation. We're super pumped to hear about the new location for this summer and especially to see their newest G23! Let's hope my skills are improved enough to match that sweet boat! read more

Barry took our group of seven out on the lake for skiing/wakeboarding/tubing, and the whole experience was fabulous! He even had our 9-year-old skiing in no time, and was very encouraging and did a great job explaining exactly what we should correct when we were getting the hang of things. Safety was key, equipment was in good shape, and the boat was powerful. Absolutely recommend Wakepilot and Barry! read more
