Recently, my wife and I purchased a new boat. After looking around the DFW area, we remembered Twin Coves from years ago.
Our BRAND NEW boat was our first boating experience. We relied on information furnished by the Twin Coves Manager. We were told our Slip would be ready July 1, 2021 and that our Lift would be available as soon as we put our boat in the water - July 1, 2021!
Well, the Slip was ready on July 1, 2021 but we had been told by the Manager NOTTO PLACE A BOAT IN THE WATER without having a Lift or it would "Stain". We believed what she had told us but believe we were only told that so we would rent a LIFT - which we did - ONLY THE LIFT Wasn't installed!
Once we placed our boat in the water, we took it to our slip and tied it up. We went to the manager's office and asked about the Lift. Prior to July 1, 2021, we were told that even if our lift wasn't available, she would have a slip with a lift available - THAT DIDN"T HAPPEN!
I asked the manager about the lift again and was told - it will be a couple of days due to the slip being new, there were electrical issues and the new section of the Marina had to be inspected again. Not sure why we were not told this in the beginning!
On July 5, we asked again about the LIFT as we didn't want our boat to be stained for sitting in the water too long. We were told that we should be OK for another couple of days. We again, inquired about the Lift on July 7th. We were then told our boat "Should Be OK FOR AT LEAST 10 DAYS" before anything would stain the boat!
On July 14, our Lift finally got installed. We raised the boat out of the water and our boat was not only stained - it was stained very bad! The Manager seemed to dismiss our frustration.
Not only did our boat get stained, we were without a Lift through July 14th - WAS TOLD WE WOULD RECEIVE A CREDIT - but to this day, after emailing several times, have received no credit (about $100)! We just received our statement for September and still NO CREDIT!
In addition to the above, the Manager was going to get a quote for them to "Power Wash" our boat as we were misled and told very bad (and probably untruthful - if not unethical) information.
BEWARE OF TWIN COVES MARINA - Very Bad Experience!
