I was a little hesitant because the last time I came here I felt like the guy wasn’t giving me space on the water, but this experience was great! They made sure they could see me but they gave me space to enjoy my time on the water. They were available last min(SOML) The check in process was simple, the direction was understandable and the view is always breathtaking. It’s my favorite way to view The Land. It really was the cherry on top of my short trip. Between jetskiing and Levant shawarma in CLE it will always be a great trip. I’m so glad I went! Thank you!

Large number of boats for rent, 4 staff working that day, walked up and got 3 kayaks easily without a reservation. Could not go out to the lake due to higher winds, but was really nice to kayak up the river and back. Easy put in and out. Easy paperwork to rent.

Super easy reservation. Staff was friendly and helpful. They send a guide with you who watches the time so you dont have to and they were great! They offered to show us the submarine, Rock &Roll Hall of Fame, Asked if we wanted to swim and brought us to the cleanest water to jump in and swim, and asked if we wanted waves or smooth lake and took us to the best spots. The guide was NOT the fun-police and was only there to help when we wanted it, otherwise they sat back and let us do whatever we wanted (jumping waves, doing spinouts, top speed runs, go anywhere we wanted, etc). It was lots of fun and I'll be going back! We had a SeaDoo GTI 130 (newer model, maybe a year or two old), black and orange. Went 50mph with 2 people on it. Ran great, strong ski. Had forward, neutral, and reverse.

Been using Great Lakes Watersports for 3 years now. By far the easiest and most experienced place to rent any watersports in the area. Instant waivers and what not made things super easy unlike other places we have tried. Jet Skis are great but they are fast and plenty powerful. The crew is awesome to have nearby keeping things safe too. One of the few places that really care about your experience and safety before anything else. The pontoons were also much better experience than typical pontoons I’ve been on. They use Tritoons that sit up higher to handle Lake Erie much better. Lots of room and you can hook up your own tunes. The scenery here and views of downtown are literally second to none. Sunset cruise was absolutely gorgeous.

My experience renting a boat from Boat Rental Services was excellent. The staff were absolutely outstanding—very polite, friendly, and patient. They explained everything clearly and made the whole process smooth and enjoyable. The boat was clean and comfortable, and the trip was a lot of fun. The prices were very reasonable considering the quality of service I received. I highly recommend them
