I heard about Annapolis Electric Boat Rentals through another Eastport/Annapolis event. Greg and…read moreSherry were terrific to work with before and after I rented their boat online. At the dock, Greg gave me and my family a quick, but thorough review of the boat and its safety features. The boat itself was spotless, and silent during the cruise. Cruising Annapolis Harbor and Spa Creek was a delight. A wonderful day, and a great value on the water. Thank you Greg and Sherry!!! I will be back.

At 8 AM the following day, I received a voicemail, an email, and a text message from the company stating that they were closed Monday and I should not have been allowed to make a reservation via their own website,. Obviously there would be a full refund, and they were very apologetic. I never received the refund and contacted them twice more during the next six days. Today I received an email from Benjamin. Tiederman stating that I would only be refunded 50%, which would not be received for another five days. This is fraud and theft, Along with basic incompetence and lack of ethics. I had to eventually submit a charge back to my credit card company, which will cost them extra money in fines instead of doing what they stated they would do. I've never left a negative review on any site so congratulations Annapolis electric boat rentals.

Pirate Adventures on the Chesapeake was a really cool adventure for my kids. They loved all aspects…read moreof it! The adventure starts with a phone call. This isn't the type of adventure you can show up to on a whim. You have to schedule a visit in advance. I scheduled a date and time over the phone. They took my credit card info, a contact number and my kids' names. The first date I scheduled was cancelled due to inclement weather. Pirate Adventures called and cancelled the adventure about three hours prior to when it was supposed to start. I elected to reschedule right then. I was instructed to arrive a half hour before our adventure so the kids could get their faces painted and pick out a sash. We parked on the street a few blocks away not realizing they have a parking lot. We checked in, the kids were given name tags with their name and an alliterative adjective (ie Zig Zag Zora and Kung Fu Kieran) and then reported to the face painting and sash picking area. After face painting kids and adults boarded the boat and the Chesapeake part of the adventure began. The captain went over a few safety measures with the adults while his assistant went through guidelines with the kids. The adventure has a whole story with different parts involved that kept the seven kids on our adventure entertained. Ages ranged from probably three to fourteen. These parts included a map search, treasure hunt, key finding expedition, pirate fight and a final pirate bounty quest. For the adults, we just hung out under a shaded portion of the boat. I got up to interact with my kids a few times and to snap some pictures. Mostly I just enjoyed the boat ride. The whole adventure lasted almost two hours (counting face painting). If you have kids that love to pretend and don't mind riding a boat, Pirate Adventures on the Chesapeake might be right up their alley.

From the second I arrived I was greeted by their friendly staff. Everyone from the folks working with paperwork to the "guides" who take you out were extremely personable. The ride and time itself on the jet ski was great! All their machines looked to be in great running order. Overall, I had no issues at all during my experience. So if you're looking for a place to rent from and want to make sure you're not going to run into an unfriendly staff or beat up jet ski's - make sure to go to DMV Jet Skis!

I do agree with him tandem kayaks are divorce boats if your marriage isn't already strong. Having said that the kayaks are definitely not for beginners and my husband and I are NOT experienced.

Super nice guy at the shop though!

It pains me to write a negative review. Jim, the owner, is a very nice gentlemen and I think at…read moreone point this was a spectacular tour. However, we booked a half-day guided tour and were very disappointed. The website (being as dated as it is should have given us a clue) boasts different trips to choose from, but Jim doesn't have the staff to pull them off anymore. We weren't able to select which tour we wanted. Instead we left and returned from the public launch near his home at Spring Cove marina. Two-thirds of his kayaks were missing or had broken rudders. The kayaks were lacking a little love and care. Even a simple hose down to get grass clippings, bugs, and cob webs out of them would have helped. Several of the life jackets needed to be replaced as I'm sure those did not meet coast guard standards - not that you really need life jackets when kayaking in the shallow waters of Swan Creek. But, he had great paddles - light weight carbon fiber with shaped blades. The advertised "beach" stop near Humphreys point was a 10 ft by 2 ft patch of muddy land. There was no great way to get out and explore or enjoy the overgrown area, nor was there a good place to swim and enjoy the warm August water. And our email reminder that bottled water and high energy trail mix set some higher expectations than the one extra bottle of water that Jim had in his kayak. The "guided" portion of the tour was almost non-existent. Other than navigational directions, there was very little information shared with the group about where we were paddling, or what we were seeing. Some brief explanation of a duck blind, and three sentences of history regarding one of the farms we saw was about it - for those close enough to hear Jim. We would have had the same trip if we were given a laminated map and let loose on the kayaks. The scenery was beautiful. We weren't fortunate enough to see any of the bald eagles in the area, but we saw plenty of Osprey, Herons, ducks, and other birds. We had great weather, so we were able to enjoy the serenity of the area. Having done guided kayak, canoe, cycling, and hiking tours before, we had higher expectations. I wish Jim the best of luck in what is clearly a delayed retirement.

I hate leaving bad reviews--but this was unavoidable…read more Normally, I give a place at least three visits before forming an opinion, but after today's experience at Red Eye's Dock Bar, I just couldn't overlook the service. We were seated at 3:15 PM on a Friday. There were only three tables occupied and three servers working, so it wasn't even remotely busy. Unfortunately, our server, Sydney, disappeared--twice. After taking our drink order, she vanished for over 16 minutes before the drinks arrived. Then, after dropping off our food, she disappeared for good. We literally had to ask the bus girl, Aliyah, to go look for her. And bless her heart--Aliyah searched upstairs, downstairs, far and near trying to locate our server, but no luck. Meanwhile, the other waitstaff--including a young man working the other tables--were attentive and visible. It was frustrating to watch our table become the exception in what should've been a chill, easy service window. We shared our concerns with Sydney before paying. When I asked where she had gone, she told us she had been busy doing her chores--like cleaning bathrooms and things of that nature. That only added to my concern... If you're cleaning bathrooms in the middle of a shift, should you really be serving food and drinks? To be fair, the food was actually pretty good, which makes this review even more disappointing. I live nearby and usually frequent The Jetty or Libbey's, but I wanted to try something different. Sadly, this wasn't the experience I hoped for-

As we entered, the tables on the main deck were arranged to fit party groups of either 6 or 8 guests and a table for 2. The buffet food was arranged at the front of the dining area and the musician (acoustic guitar) next to it. He did a wonderful job of singing and playing both guitar and harmonica. Upstairs, they had tall tables with a few metallic stools. So happy the room was air-conditioned. Serve yourself was near immediate. Bar and drinks were upstairs on the observation deck. Soft drinks and tea were included. The accommodations up there were tall tables and a few metallic stools To the food: The assorted greens salad was fresh with your choice of salad dressings. Then rolls with real butter, followed with spaghetti with meatballs and a pasta with shrimp and parmesan, and chicken parm cutlets. Potato salad and a caprese salad of sliced mozzarella and tomatoes topped with a balsamic dressing. There was enough for seconds. Close to the end of the cruise, they brought out some desserts that looked like magazine quality. Cheesecake, chocolate layered cake, carrot cake, and lemon bars. All were very rich, and nothing was left. The staff could not have been nicer and very efficient. It's a really great crew. There is plenty of free parking. One note, this is not a wheelchair accessible due to a series of steps.
