A decent little marina/rental shop that's located right outside Sturgeon Bay Provincial Park and…read moreoffers boat rentals for the day. While the building itself may be a bit dated, it more than makes up for it in service. Get past the lifejackets stacked in the corner of the store and the general disorganized feeling and you'll find that this place has a lot of options for boaters, including several types of boats (with variable speeds) that can be rented out. My group ended up settling for a 15-horsepower boat that cost us $80 for the day plus gas charges. Luckily, they'll refund a portion of the gas charge based on what you have left at the end of the day. This is a very laid-back place. The owner's dog saunters around and sees visitors off in the boat (by sitting at the end of the dock), and we had some old (very old) paddles in the boat that we attempted to use to row (to no avail). The boats get you to where you need to go and the general experience is very good. The owner gave my group a short lesson on how to use the boat (one of my friends had boating experience and knew how to operate one), which was appreciated. Sturgeon Bay Marine is a great place to rent a boat if you don't have any other options.

In spring he does any repairs identified in fall and keeps it running in top shape. Scott is dependable and great to deal with. He has an attention to detail and the power wash is impeccable and keeps out boat looking as good as new. We trust Scott to keep our boat in great condition. we've recommended him to other neighbours on the lake who now use him as well. Having a mobile Marine Mechanic and someone come to you is invaluable! Thanks Scott!!

I had a problem…read morewith my transmission cooler leaking on my Lincoln LS and OK Tire took it in and replaced the part, tighten hoses, and refill my tranny fluid while many other mechanics from Espanola, Sudbury and in between refused to help me because they 'don't have the tools'. The problem was that those other mechanics were too afraid to think. OK Tire got the job done and done right.

My bad in delaying this review because I have now misplaced the card of the owner and have forgotten the names of the people who helped us. The owner was beyond helpful, letting us drop our tire off after they had officially closed and giving us a ridiculously low cost to have it fixed. He was also so pleasant while he waited for us to finally pull the tire out of our trunk (we were on our way to camp and had all the items associated with doing so) Our pickup and check out wasn't nearly as smooth with the employee at the counter trying to tell us he would have to charge us for use of a jack and that they didn't have the man power to offer us use of one until 2 days from the Sunday we wanted to leave (our jack was broken). Fortunately, another employee working in the garage overheard and offered to help us without us having to ask and at zero charge So, one guy was a dick but the other two people we met were A-Okay (tire) and I highly recommend if you are in the area and need some rim work
