Boat didn't require a boating license so any adult could drive, super easy to drive and dock, was in gorgeous shape, all the kids LOVED being on it. Tommy was our contact, he was GREAT with communication. He dropped the boat to our dock nice and early, did an informative walk-through of everything, and then made local suggestions for where to go. Our house was in close boating distance to Lake Anna Tap House (which was a GEM), so we docked there daily and hung out. Tommy also recommended a sand bar about 15 minutes down the lake where we could dock, kids could swim and play, and was great for some adult lounging. We had such a great time on the Lake that we will be coming back for sure, and Tommy and CBR will be our go-to for anything Boat rentals. Couldnt have had a better experience.

We asked about rental prices for jet skis. They wanted $600 for the day or $100 an hour which I found to be pretty outrageous. It seemed the boat rentals were actually cheaper than the jet ski. Overall, the staff were nice and equipment was kept up well. I felt the price for the kayak was reasonable but would likely not rent larger pieces of equipment.

A quint and rather quiet town without many amusements, DMV Jet Skis gives you run for your money! Situated at a price ~$10-15 cheaper than comparable jet ski rentals in the area, DMV Jet Skis charges $70 for half an hour and $115 for a full hour. We arrived, checked in at their small office behind Marina West and took a short quiz on safety (the necessary responses are provided in a one-sheet statement page). We carried on great conversation with the staff members who were both friendly and efficient. One staff member gave us life jackets and took us out on the water earlier than reserved because everyone for the hour was in attendance-- SCORE! We got some extra time. For the one-hour tour, the guide takes you out to the water and you can go wherever you want as long as you stay in view of the guide. (It sounds kiddish, but you can go pretty far and still see them.) My boyfriend and I were at complete bliss out on the water! It's amazing to fly around, slicing through waves at 55 mph. We both rode the same jet ski and I primarily let him drive. Even being the passenger was fun-- I think I enjoyed it more than I did driving. If you're the passenger make sure you hold tight to the front person so you don't fly off. Our overall experience was amazing. I have nothing to complain about besides my slightly sore bottom and back today from my inability to keep my butt on the seat. I would highly recommend DMV Jetskis and undoubtedly would return.

We searched online for a boat rental company for the Hot Springs Area and Great White Rentals was…read morethe first site to come up. We read the reviews and assumed since they were all so good and their website looked good they were a legit company. We called and talked to a nice lady on the phone a week prior to us coming to visit for a week long vacation with 6 of our grandkids. Let her know we had a pontoon and would like to rent a nice boat to spend 2-3 days on the lake tubing, skiing, and riding around while we were here. I asked about the two nicer boats on the website and she said they had some really clean boats and she could get us 8 in one no problem. So reserved the premium one over the phone. When we arrived the next week they called the day before and requested to be paid the of the amount in cash. I thought this was strange for a company, but agreed and went to back to get cash for the next morning. (First red flag) When they arrived with the boat it was a 22 year old tri-toon, very weathered, and let's just say, well used. (Second red flag) Seats ripped, awning held together with bungee cords and straps, rear ladder was bungee strapped up, horn was broken, so we have a whistle, interior lights broken lenses, radio didn't work, the anchor was an 8 pound mushroom anchor you would use for a johnboat, would certainly not hold a 24' pontoon. The life vest they provided were just as old as the boat. We only had 4 we could use old of the 10 they sent. There's no tow bar to pull from, so the drivers says yeah you will have to tie onto one of the toons, really??? I expressed my frustration with the delivery driver, which went no where, I called the office and talked to a lady who said she had only been answering phones for a few months and had never actually seen the boats. (Third red flag). I asked at this point was this a company or was this just individuals renting out their boats and cabins? She answered just individuals, they don't have an actual office. She advised she would get with the owner of the boat to see if they can do anything but they didn't have any other boats available. By now I'm frustrated but I have 6 grandkids ages 13-8 looking at me excited to go boating and waiting to get on the boat. They could care less what it looks like or if it's going to leave us stranded, they just want to go. lol I go ahead and take the boat and make the best of what we have throughout the day. When they pick up the boat I was expecting a little humility and at least an half ass excuse, but all I get was "sorry this wasn't what you expected, thank for re ring with us though". We check on other rentals in the area the next morning and found that they actually have newer boats and are quite a bit less expensive. I also went back and reviewed their website to see if I missed anything and over reacted. What I found was a couple of the reviews were from the delivery guys family, the delivery driver is actually in the pictures. So I wonder if the 23 reviews are actually real at this point. Moral of the story, don't stop doing research when you find a good website or good reviews. Keep checking around, we paid 730 dollars for a 22 year old worn out boat and motor for 8 hours and could have gotten a 2 year old boat with a bigger motor, for 520 dollars at 2 other rental places right down the road. If you're renting your own equipment that's great, just be upfront about it !

Ok, I wish I had checked HELP before my visit. I was prepared to give them a 2nd chance, it the…read morecomments here ring true to my experience. It appears that this is normal for them and not a fluke. Unfortunate. The biggest problem with this organization is communication. When we arrived? 2 men asked us if we had reservations. We said Yes, a d they drove away with us sitting on the parking lot. After 15 minutes they returned, but turned around to drive off again without giving us any information. I had to flag them down. When I did, we were told to go down to the booth to check in. But there was no one to check us in. There was another family waiting who had been there nearly an hour. Fast forward 30 minutes more and we are finally on the jet skis. They get me on 1st, but they didn't have a life jacket for my wife, so she took lo her as they located one. The young man working there began to yell at me that I had to go on out without my wife. "You have to go!" He just kept yelling! It was no use, because no way was I turning my back and motoring out into the Bay while people i don't know are struggling to get my wife prepared. I don't do that. Eventually she was ready. I gave her plenty of space, which from their yelling appeared to be the concern, and we went out. We had 3 more incidents of conflict with this same guy over the course of the ride. Had the day not been perfect and the tons of dolphins not escorted us, he would have ruined our trip with is mouth. So the ride was a 5 but the customer service was a 1. I'll likely go so where else next time.
