Dont rent a boat here! I rented a jon boat to get out for a couple hours. $143. I grew up fishing out here and wanted to revisit now that I live in Atlanta. The boat filled up with water. I had to pull the boat to shore and bail it out 2 times in 30 mins. The boat would not even get on plane with so much water. I drove it back and they did not work with any refund or offer any kind of resolution. So I was supposed to accept a unsafe boat! If you want to get out in Gator infested water to bail out a boat, get a rental. If not stay clear away. The manager would not even confirm he was going to pull it out of service for repair. Bad business! I have spent thousands at this park in my life, but they won't see another dime!
