Claims to be in the business 22 years. One star only for convenience of boat launch location…read more(launch just north of Sutton's Bay public beach), boat we rented was trailered there. We spent 35 minutes of our time listening to the owner give instruction and prep and launch the boat. Time was from 10-5, boat should have been in the water waiting for us, but we waited on him. Boat was in terrible condition, both pontoons had significant scratches/dents. Seating was in good condition and floor was nice (not carpet). Not informed ahead of time, but do not allow fishing from their boats. Boat listed very hard to our right the entire day and a check engine oil light came on shortly after we launched. Owner knew the boat was damaged and admitted it was recently repaired. No reparations were given to us, just told he resented being told this issue was known to him (stated so himself and pointed out the damage to the pontoon where it was repaired). Would not recommend this rental company when so many others are available in the area and take good care of their boats.

They are located in the village near the grocery store, and just off the bike trail, with plenty of parking for easy access. They also provide convenient drop-off and pick up services. I would highly recommend Get Outside Rentals in Suttons Bay!

It was a slow day and they were going to close early, but the friendly and helpful guy renting us…read moreour bikes figured out a way we could stay out past closing and return the bikes safely and easily. A real hero that guy, too bad I didn't catch his name. Anyway, rental was simple, the gear was very good quality, no attitude or space cadet vibes, just a great and easy process from start to finish.

The perfect place to rent a kayak in TC! I had never kayaked before and my husband had only kayaked…read moreonce before when he was a kid. The younger guy who was working was very patient with us and took the time to explain things (and helped calm my nerves). He did a great job telling us where to kayak to and helped us get into the water. An hour rental was plenty for us newbies and we had an absolute blast out on the water. This is a great place for newer kayakers to rent from and I cannot wait to stop by again the next time we are in town!

I see a few bad reviews for Grand Bay Marine which appears to have been bought by Walstrom in 2022…read more In 2026, I had my boat in twice for some work in June and July and I was very pleased with the service, the price for the repairs, the quick turn around time, etc. I do assume time lines will vary based on what the boat needs and the timing of busy season in Traverse City, so I am sure some people will have a longer wait at times. But I will be back if I need repairs in the future! A couple years ago I needed a part for my old 2002 motor and they were the most helpful in helping me track down what I needed since they did not have it in stock (nor did any other repair places in the area). Great job!

I've had the boat serviced by them for the last couple of years. So far, everything has been fine. They are very nice, and responsive. Everyone seems to care and know what they are doing. I found the owner very pleasant and concerned with addressing concerns.
