What a positive overall experience! Two months ago, we reached out to reserve a PWC, and after…read morespeaking with Larry, all of our questions were answered and we knew this was going to be a smooth experience. Fast forward to the day of our rental, and he was able to meet us a little bit early, and he even extended our rental a bit more than 24 hours. Larry was super patient and willing to do more than just walk us through the basics. His communication via text was prompt and clear, and the pre-rental rigamarole was self-guided and convenient. I would not hesitate to recommend, and we are looking forward to the next time we can rent from him!

The main office is inland a few blocks and after some short paperwork and a safety video they will drive you down to the dock to launch. Jet skis newer, in good condition, and performed great! When you get back you're responsible for filling up the gas which is pretty easy with the dock attendants. All around great service with helpful tips on different parts of the lake. Worthwhile to get out on the water and enjoy this beautiful area!

We decided to start our bachelor party off with SUPing in the Spokane area. We parked at the…read moreSpokane Convention Center in the parking garage and walked east on the centennial trail towards the division street bridge, where we had already reserved and rented SUP's for 2-hrs of fun. No need to pack anything but your sunscreen, wanted beverage, and water proofed bag for keys/credit cards/ID/electronics etc. bc they have all the necessary equipment ready to go once you sign the appropriate waver. We paddled up to No-Li brewery and back in that 2-hr time frame and thoroughly enjoyed our jaunt. I'd recommend this Fun Unlimited activity to anyone desiring to paddle on SUP's.

We had a wonderful (and safe) day on the water. Unfortunately, our positive experience ended the…read moremoment we returned the boat. After renting multiple days with KJ, one interaction on 9/1 at ~3:30 PM was convinced us to take our business elsewhere. Upon docking, an associate confronted us with accusations that my husband had been "cutting through swimming zones" and "cutting people off." Not only were these claims untrue, but they were presented as fact with no specifics to support them other than receiving the call at the time we reached the no wake zone. At one point the story was "I got calls," and moments later it became "I got a call at the time you entered the wake zone." Which is it? When pressed for details (where, who, when), none were offered, just a shrug and the remark that he only gets "two calls a year," and apparently we're half of them. To make matters worse, we were told the supposed "cutting off" occurred as we entered the no wake zone. That means speeds were five miles per hour or less. How, exactly, do you cut someone off when everyone is crawling along at idle speed in the same general direction? The claim defies common sense, and yet it was repeated back to us as though it were unquestionable fact. The problem wasn't that a call was mentioned; it was the condescending delivery. Telling someone to "learn the rules" and "take an online course" is not only unnecessary, it's insulting. My husband is a cautious, defensive driver with experience across lakes and oceans. He said he had not driven a boat in a while - a while for us means last year. Again, no clarification requested from the Associate - just launched into a very confusing lecture. During our day on Lake Coeur d'Alene, we passed multiple police boats without incident, not to mention receiving nothing but waves and smiles from other boaters. Hardly the picture of reckless behavior. Had the associate framed the issue as a question, "We received a report you may have gone near a swim zone, what happened today?" we would have been happy to clear it up. Instead, it was delivered as an unverified accusation, shifting story included, wrapped in condescension. I asked for a management callback to try and resolve directly with KJ, same associate called me back. I respectfully stated facts, sharing my husband's history with boats, and that I felt he should have approached it differently. I did not ask for a refund, compensation, or anything - I just wanted to chat about the interaction and why it was inappropriate. His official response? "Your feedback is noted *end call*". My husband and I will not do business here again, and since management didn't seem to wish to discuss this interaction I will be "noting" my feedback here on Yelp!

When I asked if there were any discounts available for seniors or military they kindly waived the fee for the rental tube. Parking is close (and free) and the gas fill up station is right next to KJ Watersports. (Some older reviews stated the gas fill up location was far away but that must have changed.) We had a lot of fun on the water in spite of a somewhat cool and overcast day. Would definitely do this activity again with our family and would certainly rebook with KJ Watersports!

Such a beautiful, gentle, and intelligent dog.

But now we won't have any. Instead we've now removed "the middleman" and will be scheduling with these "adventure" companies directly.
