    Kirby and his staff are the best on the lake. His school is a definite must if you wake board or wake surf.

    We rented an Airbnb close in Osage Beach near the bridge the end of September and looked for a…read morefishing boat to rent for a day or two that was nearby. Calling and checking on prices, The Getaway was the first that appeared to be interested in working with me and patiently explained they didn't do little (we were a party of five) fishing boats anymore. We ended up getting a new Tritoon that could probably hold a dozen persons, no problem. Secured our fishing licenses and found the rental location where a young man was waiting with a side-by-side, willing to haul our gear down to the dock. Checking in was smooth and easy, instructions were given, and directions and ideas shared on the best areas to fish. Well, the fishing wasn't great, although we changed location a few times, and we hoped to stop at a dockside restaurant, so returned the boat a bit early so we wouldn't go over our allotted time. The Tritoon performed beautifully (hair trigger on the throttle), powerful motors, shade, pockets for storage. They were right--the Triton was very stable, waves no problem. Expected to pay for gas in addition to quoted price but apparently overlooked or forgot about the cleaning fee. The young man hauled our gear back up the hill. Would love to return with a larger party and really have some fun.

    We rented a boat from here last year and had an AMAZING experience. The boat was basically brand…read morenew, worked great! The staff was incredible, so, we returned this year. This year's experience was a bit disappointing. The front desk teen was so so rude. She started talking bad about a different customer in front of me and my fiancé, which is just really unprofessional. The few encounters we had with her (upon pick up and drop off) was just unpleasant. The other staff were great and super helpful. The boat was disappointing. Only 1/6 speakers worked and we had a hard time getting it started a few different times. For over $700 for the day, I guess I was just expecting a boat that was fully functional / working. The boat was called 'the misty' Not sure if we will return here

    Nothing bad to say about WFO watercraft rental's!!! This place was AWESOME!! We rented JetSki's…read moreduring their off-season time right before spring break. The people that worked here were super reasonable laid back people and they allowed us to only rent them for two hours and give the office a call if we wanted to rent them for longer. We ended up doing 2 hours then called back for 2 more and one more time for one more hour lol. They were not very strict and they didn't care about how long we had them out.. They gave us a map of where we were allowed to go, they fitted us for life vests and quickly showed us how to do what we're supposed to do on the jetskis and sent us on our way. These JetSki's were in great shape and super fast (turbo-d ones) and super responsive! Almost impossible to flip. This was honestly the time of my life out on the water we got to stop at restaurants with docks on them and we went swimming and just speeding around having so much fun!!! A wonderful experience thanks to WFO watercraft rentals!!! If I ever came back to the Ozarks this is where I would get a boat rental or JetSki next time!!

    I rented a boat during the labor day weekend. I showed up, the guy said im still drunk from the…read morenight before. I should have known it would be a bad experience. They forgot to put the plugs in the boat. The plugs prevents the boat from sinking. Imaging bringing your family on a boat rental and having the boat start to sink. The owner was so rude, do disrespectful not a single apology. Not one time did the owner say sorry. We were responsible for all tow fees over $1500 bucks. This guy is the devil. I cannot believe the city lets this slide. Im still in disbelief. Please consider the safety of your family before you rent from thwse folks. Sinking a boat is a crazy experience, your responsibility for every life, its crazy they put fathers in that predicament and then dont even have empathy. Shame on the LoTo​​

The boat that left ended up breaking down and we all had to pile into 1 boat to go tow the 2nd boat back to the rental place. Ended up losing 2 hours of our rental. When I called to see if I could compensation back for those hours, he tried to justify that we were going to have to head back anyways. Then after talking to him more, he said he would find the invoice and call me back. That was 2 weeks ago and they haven't answered my calls since. God forbid you reimburse someone for services not provided. don't recommend
