Thomas loved his business and put everything he had into it. His smile and enthusiasm was infectious to everyone he met along his journey in life.

He was predeceased by his father Thomas P. Jones IV. Thomas is survived by his mother Denise Jones, his brother Patrick Jones, his grandparents Mr. and Mrs. Robert Bowen and two uncles Christopher and Bob Bowen.

I always, and I mean ALWAYS, had a great time jet skiing with you every summer since you opened your business in 2017. My most sincere condolences to your family and friends. Until we meet again...

5 Stars, Don't look anywhere else in the Lake George area! It was pricey but the length of time…read morethey take you on the lake is Insane! Our Guide Zach was an absolute pleasure and if you have any option I would recommend 10/10. We will be returning and asking for him each time! Great spot, Great ride. All you need! Also their training video was 10/10 go Jennifer and Stephanie!!

Let me start by saying this group was very accommodating and commutative. Our young guides were…read morefriendly, knowledgeable, and kept safety and fun top of mind! What's more is, I was "that lady" who brought a waterproof phone protector with a neck strap to take pictures with my family and friends. I was also "that lady" who took the neck strap off to avoid tan lines...needless to say, my phone went into the Hudson River without me realizing it! Ethan and his crew were so kind during my personal meltdown, mostly due to me kicking myself for being so careless. They had a group of 80 after us, but assured me they would all look out for it as they had an idea where I dropped it. We called every half hour in the hopes one of the other crews may have discovered the phone, and at 4:50, my husband's phone rang with the amazing news that the phone was found safely! All 3 of our guides looked and I cannot express how grateful I am to them all!! Personal tragedy aside, our entire group said the lazy river was the best part of our trip, and we have already recommended AAC to friends who are traveling to Lake George in the coming weeks! If you're looking for a fun and relaxing way to spend a morning or afternoon, this is a definite must to check for your list!

Thank you Alania and Daniel. We had a Great time!!!! Definitely would recommend. Great timeread more

A Great Family Bucket List Event!…read moreWouldn't have thought of doing this, but any visit to southern end of Lake George makes the parasails hard to miss. Figured, why not; glad we did) SCHEDULING: 4 We visited Lake George on Tuesday & decided to parasail on Wednesday. Drove back (an hour) to see nobody PS'ing on the lake. "Closed". Cued to go online to book, which in turn 'call to schedule'. Done. CUSTOMER SERVICE: 5 Kiosks process was smooth with obligatory liability waiver, suiting up with life jacket and harness. Crew was friendly while efficient getting us situated on boat - with a final point that there is a very small possibility "you'll get wet"....so plan accordingly. Adding, "We have waterproof phone sleeves with lanyards should you wish to take those up with you for pics." (Note: competitor company advises that use of one's personal electronics is a safety hazard and banned from use on their boats - they offered a $30 photo service shot from the boat) The RIDE: Customers wait their turn to go up, turns out party of three will always to slotted to go up together to save time (max weight 500lbs). Solo flights could only happen if one is over 200 lbs. Tandems are fun with parent and kid combos. You're harnessed onto the parasail and are supporting rope is winched out hundreds of feet, pulled by along by boat. Higher than I expected. Duration is approximately 10 minutes which I didn't time - but seemed plenty enough. Crew offered a water touchdown which amounts to be let down into the lake for a momentary wetting.....and lifted back up before final boat landing. (We asked for feet only which was plenty wet for our purposes) NEXT TIME: My kids & I would definitely use Joe's service again on our next trip up to Lake George- Best value of the two vendor (personal photo op from height). What would I do different? Take wide angle selfie video of flight & ask for a deeper water touchdown mid flight. *BONUS: - Now for a 10 year old's perspective... Parasail joes was awesome. It was thrilling ,scary ,fun all that stuff .It was pretty cool and it was my first time parasailing and it was pretty cool there might be a better place so I can't completely say five star but it's good for a first time and I might change my opinion later sooooooo yeah.

We did the 1 hour cruise on the Horicon last week while on our vacation in Lake George. It's a…read moregreat way to take in all the scenic views of the lake, and get a little history lesson to boot. We also enjoyed a few cocktails from the bar. The cruise is dog friendly too, that was important for us, because our mini-poodle wanted to go. Reading many negative reviews concerning the crew, but we thought they were friendly & very professional. The Captain is proud native of the area. We'd recommend this shoreline cruise to any First Timers to Lake George. But basically, it's the kind of activity you do once, One & Done.

What a disappointing experience to start off 2024!…read more Overpriced and underdelivered! Terrible value for the cost. The food was poor and ran out early on. The first deck was overcrowded making exit in case of an emergency nearly impossible and producing a disaster. The first deck was very cold despite being advertised as heated. Only the crowd did anything to warm up the room. The price of $50 per person was overly expensive and we were unaware, until boarding, that it included food and entertainment at the restaurant on land. We were not interested and would have preferred a two-tier price structure. Also, the window flaps were filthy and we could barfely see outside. I will not book with you again.

They were fabulous! My mother in law did it a few years ago and wanted to again so my husband said…read morehe'd go and my 5 year old daughter wanted to as well! They were amazing there was a gentleman standing outside the booth that talked to my daughter she was so amped and it didn't stop there the guys that drove the boat (Brandon and Derrick?

Parasail Nation gives you a go pro to take up and film you can view a preview and if you like it purchase it as well, which we did!! We will certainly be using them again when we go back next year!! Thanks Parasail Nation for creating amazing memories for my family especially my 5 year old daughter who is still talking about it 4 days later!!

We have rented boats Inn Lake George for many years. Our rental here was a big disappointment…read more The condition of the boat was shoddy and very old. It is reasonable to expect that the rental does not have worn, torn seats and the prior belongings left on the boat. We were given misinformation by staff and Jennifer ( the "boss"), who is very difficult to reach at any time was shockingly rude. Not the experience you would expect in boating world on Lake George.

Overall this place is good and one of the better marinas I've visited on the Lake. The store is…read morewell stocked and had a good mix of food, products, snacks, beer, etc. The staff was pretty friendly. My two biggest complaints are: (1) the price to launch a small human powered boat is too high in my opinion. Just go to the Town Park instead. You can park and launch for free, however you cannot park overnight there if you are island camping. My other gripe (2) is that they have a lakeside grill / food truck which is horrendously overpriced! A kebab and a small dry salmon burger were $24 EACH with no real side, unless you count a single leaf of lettuce. Well, I'll never do that again. What a rip off. It's too bad because it's a cool idea and the place looks cute. I guess it's the whole captive audience thing.

On top of all this, they can arrange a guided tour of Lake George for you, answer questions you may have about the area, and find rental accommodations for you. There is also a boat inspection station here to keep your boat and our lake clean. There's probably more that I'm leaving out. Tom & Jeremy (and their staff) run the nicest marina on the lake and we're very lucky to have it in Huletts Landing. Stop by in your boat or car during the summer and you'll be sure to come back.

My wife and I stayed at 1000 Acres Ranch from Sunday, August 16, 2026 through Tuesday, August 18,…read more2026, and I give the place five gold stars. This was our first time here, and it came highly recommended by friends. The staff was kind, welcoming, and helpful. There are many different room options--some facing the Hudson River, some with porches--and our room was a small, cozy cabin. It was clean, the mattress was soft, and although the bathroom only had a shower, it suited us fine. This week there were many families, and most of the activities were geared toward children. The only activity with an extra charge was horseback riding; everything else, including the petting zoo, kayaking, rope climbing, biking, and more, was free. My wife and I spent most of our time enjoying the amazing scenery and relaxing on the chairs overlooking the Hudson. Three meals a day were provided, and the food was plentiful, varied, and very good. There was also a minyan three times a day, and the manager gave a short dvar Torah after Shacharis and Mincha, which added a meaningful touch. We had an amazing time and highly recommend visiting 1000 Acres Ranch.

I have been going to 1000 Acres now for around 15 years! The place used to be so amazing! But I…read morehave to say my recent visit (Thursday, September 3, 2026 thru Sunday, September 6, 2026) was LOUSY!!! Granted our group has been getting smaller and smaller in the past three years (due to them jacking the prices up), but we always try to make the best of things. I had noticed ahead of time, that the website now lists the place as "Kosher" but their image on the "Food" section showed Ribeye steak, and other amazing looking food. that was NOT the case! they had gone back to ALL meals being "buffet style" which to me is the lazy way out of preparing quality meals. In years past, they also went buffet style but we kept complaining and the last two years they actually had legit menu's with amazing food (although they NEVER took into consideration my friends that were diabetic!). We were told due to the new Kosher meals, that we also could NOT order any pork (so no breakfast sausages or bacon with your meal!) Breakfast and Lunch we were told for Kosher were dairy based? and dinner they would serve some form of beef, but NEVER did I see a choice for a nice ribeye like on their website! The one thing that seemed nice when I first arrived was the newly expanded Office area. they blew out the back wall, so that the office goes clear into the bar area, so walking in and seeing the office desk to the right, and seating area on the left, I honestly felt like I was in some fancy resort! But that was the extent of the "resort" feel. About 3 or 4 years ago, the very run down Duplex units (four duplexes with rooms for two parties in each) were torn down and new Duplexes were build from the foundation up. But that too was when they just about TRIPLED their price for the stay (and that was for ANY room, not just the new duplexes) we were also told that the cabins were going to be next, but they never upgraded those. Also on this most recent stay, I found out that most people in our party (we had about 13 people) the TV's were not working at all (no signal?) I was surprised that my room in Deer Leap did in fact have a functional TV as well as in the bar! So, half of the place was without TV. The bar, was pretty much EMPTY of any type of alcohol so we had a very limited selection (and sadly this is a place they normally could make a lot of extra money!) We also found out that the Jewish group there had an event going on in the dining room and they even removed some of the alcohol from the BAR to be used exclusively for the jewish group in the dining hall! So, it seriously seemes that this place is now catering exclusively for the Jewish community!!! THE PAVILION: we always enjoyed spending time in the pavillion too while we were there. But it was blocked off and decorated again exclusively for the Jewish group for their religious services!!! Had I known of all this nonsense, I would have saved my money and gone to Ridin Hy which is supposedly only 30 minutes down the road! OH and one more vital thing: some of those in our group were told that we were the LAST group to go there, as they were filing BANKRUPCY!!!
