We rented two jet skis for my wife and I and our two teenage kids. Had a great time. Jet skis were in excellent shape and the staff was very helpful. The facility was in great shape. I would highly recommend renting from them.

Reviewed By 409jille - Pleasant Lake, United States

We loved this course! It is impeccably maintained, has beautiful views and unique challenges around every corner and over every hill. A friend said it reminded them of treetops only better! The staff was friendly and helpful and even gave us a raincheck when we ran out of daylight. I cannot recommend this course strongly enough!
