Treat paying customers with no kindness or respect. They genuinely would rather have no customers, which I would think the owner would dislike. The rooms did have a mold and mildew smell. The pool wasn't cleaned. The stairs were slippery from algae. When we stayed here five years ago it was the most pleasant place to stay. Definitely not worth the money or hassle now. Owner APRIL, you are wondering when we booked?? So pathetic, your staff should now, or are their so many people that are unhappy with your rude maintenance manager & his girlfriend?

What a great time sailing with Captain Piper! The dock was convenient and easy to find. Cap't…read morePiper was waiting when I arrived and didn't waste time getting us out on the water. She handled the boat like a pro and shared interesting information about the local birds and wildlife. What a terrific way to spend a couple of hours on the water. It felt like I was hanging out on my friend's cool sailboat instead of a tour. Thanks, Piper - looking forward to sailing again with you soon!

The prices blow bass pro/Amazon away: trust me, I'm new to this sport so I have been paying attention and spending most every day lately! This couple took over an hour and half last night to set my family up with the PROPER gear! Bass Pro did not and truly set us up for failure. E&j ( the owners ) stayed over an hour past closing time to reload 4 reels with the proper line) and educate my kids on knot techniques, how to load hooks, fish in general and operate the reel! The selection of merchandise and quality of the gear is amazing. You can buy bait from anyone--Why? Support those that enrich our economy and treat all that visit them with respect and trueness. This family gave mine attention, education, and respect. For that, they have earned ours in return. Please visit them, give them one opportunity to win your business. Buy your gear, tackle, pole or next reel. The prices are very competitive but most uplifting feature--they come with unlimited educational sessions and if by chance you mess it up--pop it in the back of you vehicle and go say hello....I bet they can help fix it---try that anywhere else. Gratitude is everything! To bad the fish didn't feel the same way ( ha ha) maybe next time...

If you want a guided fishing trip with 1-3 people in you party, Captain Neal Goodrich is the one to count on. We met him at the dock next to Goodrich's seafood restaurant.

We caught our limit in trout and will be back to fish with this great guide

Several years ago my husband, in hopes of getting me interested in sailing, signed me up for…read morelessons with Captain DJ. Now years later I'm still feeling the trauma from her training so much so that I won't step onto a sailboat. I have never been yelled at so much in my life. According to her I was constantly in a position to flip the boat. instead of calmly working with me to show me what I was doing wrong she was yelling at me. To her, I could do nothing right. I was never so happy when the course ended. My husband was sorry he sent me here rather than Lake Fairview. My overall opinion is if Captain DJ doesn't like you you're in trouble. The guy that was with me never got yelled at no matter what he did wrong.

This outfit, specifically Shawn, has the competition beat, hands down. Some tour operators distinguish themselves by being entertainers and showmen. Shawn is a good natured and knowledgeable guide that doesn't try to make himself the star of the show. He's a highly experienced boatman, knowledgeable about the local lore, the weather, the plants and wildlife, the techniques and habits of the sportsmen, and all the spots that various animal species like to hang out under different light and weather conditions. His familiarity with the unique coves and crannies of the ever changing wetland terrain is astonishing. He clearly takes it as a point of pride that he can remember and track down the animals you want to lay eyes on. He also makes the ride itself interesting and enjoyable because of his piloting skill. His lifelong love of navigating the wetlands is positively infectious. Rather than having the feeling that I've already been there and done that, I could look forward to riding with Shawn again and again.

First of all, Capt Joe's demeanor is the most pleasant of any guide I have ever fished with. Combine that with the fishing intelligence growing up with Mosquito Lagoon as your back yard leads to great fishing every time we head out.
