I did a 5 p.m. narrated tour on a Sat. in July. I bought tickets at the booth. The tour guide was…read morenew and mixed up her words and left/right sometimes, but she seemed nice and knowledgeable. I initially sat at the front of the boat, but I could not hear the narration, so I moved to the back. The information was interesting and I enjoyed the views. The tour had a large, separate group in attendance. One person in their group distributed tickets one at a time when it was time to board, while people not in their group were already queued and waiting to board. It would have been better for those not in the group to have the group distribute tickets before boarding to not hold up the line. I went to the booth the previous evening, Friday, for the 8 p.m. sunset cruise. I was disappointed to learn there was only one ticket left, when we had two people. I regretted not booking online earlier (mostly because I didn't want to pay a ticket fee). I called earlier around 3 p.m. to confirm the departure time; it would have been nice if the person advised me to get a ticket early.

Fun, relaxing and informative, I highly recommend this tour for people new to the area. We took the…read more90 minute tour which left from the harbor and rode along the outside of the isle.

The audio history tour was interesting, especially if your from the region and the ride itself was smooth and historical considering how few steamboats are still in operation in the states/world. They have reasonably priced concessions available on the boat, but note it's cash only.

It's been about a year and it is still one of the most peaceful and unique experiences I've had out on Lake Erie. Scott takes pride in his sail boat as well as the customer service he provides guests. From start to finish, our group had a fantastic time. We felt safe and lucky to be able to experience something so special. I highly recommend you join Scott on any of his unique adventures out on Lake Erie. Whether you want to learn how to sail or you want to enjoy a romantic wine pairing or massage out on the lake, Scott has a curated adventure waiting for you.

The motor was bad and certain parts were no longer manufactured. The team at Lawson spent weeks diligently trying to find the parts but were not successful. I ended up purchasing a used motor. Mark, Trevor, the President of Lawson's, Andy and even the owner of the marina all worked to fix problems that kept creeping up with the motor. Mark, knowing the trouble I had had with my first motor, went so far as to come in on his day off to make sure I would be taken care of. The team is incredibly knowledgeable, determined and creative in problem solving. They exhibited top customer service and patience towards me and my little fishing boat. Kudos and thanks to Lawson Boat and Motor.
