They even credited our fee we were charged for boaters insurance thru river safari with no hesitation. Dillon was in charge of us on both days and did a spectacular job getting us checked onto the boat. His interpersonal and communication skills are top notch! The sea grass was terrible and did cause a lot of cavitation but they can't control the grass! A bigger motor would have been the only thing that could have made it even better! Our boat engine began to fail on our way back in so I called the marina to let them know. The engine shut off about 30 mins later because it was overheating so I called the marina back. They sent the boss to save us! Mark hooked up our pontoon to his pontoon and towed us back to the marina! He even gave us a credit on our bill for the minor inconvenience we incurred. Thank you Dillon, Mark, and Christine for being so kind to us!

Avoid this vendor at all costs if you are considering renting a pontoon boat for the day. We…read morereserved a 22' pontoon boat approximately two months in advance for eight of us to enjoy a day on the water. The marina told me at the time that their boats will safely transport 10 people and have 100hp motors on them. I was pleased with the price and the deal (initially) on the phone. We arrived on March 29th, 2018 with 10 people (I decided to take my two grandkids with the original eight passengers). The pontoon boat they gave us was heavily damaged (see pics), only had a 50hp Honda motor on it (nowhere near enough horsepower to push a 22' pontoon boat carrying 10 people with coolers and gear), had no VHF radio (clear violation of US Coast Guard regulations), had no working 12 volt power to at least recharge a cell phone with a cigarette lighter adapter, had no anchor or working swim ladder, and upon firing up of the engine exhibited an incredibly loud whine from the prop bearing (to which the mechanic told me was normal noise for a Honda outboard). I've been captaining boats for 25+ years and I always take responsibility for passengers onboard my boats or any boat I rent. I complained about the condition of the boat and asked if we be assigned to a working vessel. The marina's reply was "no, but you are more than willing to call other marinas and try to rent their boat." I was shocked at Riverhaven's complete disregard for their customers' safety and their "couldn't care less" attitude. My passengers decided that we'd give the boat a try after driving 1.5 hours to Homosassa to try and have a relaxing day. We launched the boat and didn't get more than a quarter mile away before I noticed that the fuel gauge dropped from full to empty. I immediately turned the pontoon boat around and headed back to the marina figuring they just forgot to fill up the gas tank. Their response was "that gas gauge hasn't worked in years...but there is enough gas in it to get you where you want to go." I was fuming at this point, but tried to make the best of the day. The boat was extremely slow trying to push 10 people (max speed of 9 knots) with a 50hp motor but it lasted all day. Upon returning the boat there is a spot on the Homosassa River where spectators eat lunch at several locations. I was more than happy to display the Riverhaven logo as I slowly maneuvered the boat through the no wake zone with the engine whining so loudly that no one in their right mind could enjoy their lunch. I wanted everyone to know which marina NOT to rent from. We will NEVER rent from this marina again and we've informed the US Coast Guard of the numerous violations that the marina overlooks.
