Awesome Pontoon Lake Tripping, But Don't Forget The Sunscreen!…read more SITREP Harrison Pontoons is a great outfit in Harrison right on the major waterways of Coeur d'Alene Lake. The family got a pontoon for a four (4) hour block from 2pm to- 6pm for $300 (I should note that we actually had it for 5 hours, but they were courteous to people getting lost along the shoreline!) ;^D SETUP The boats - as far as boats are concerned - are very well-made, easy to drive, turn on a dime, have a very high clearance as they set up on the water that makes it easier for them to navigate through more shallow water. They are also incredibly fast and approach speeds easily of 40 knots per hour (KPH), roughly 43 miles per hour (MPH). Since we had my two (2) year old nephew Zygfryd (aka "Wiggly Ziggy") with us, there were items (ie. hats, bags of chips, wake boards, etc.) from inside the boat that "accidentally" found themselves in the water. The Pontoon easily spun around and allowed us to gather up the misplaced items. The pontoon also featured very convenient overhead covers to protect us from the sun. Still, I would highly recommend - as a sunburn survivor from a prior trip - to BRING YOUR SUNSCREEN! You will need it, believe me! THE LOWDOWN Pontooning on Coeur d'Alene is never more fun than with the right boat!

It is INCREDIBLE and well worth the 80 bucks that separates it from the standard Speedster. The Orange Crush is supercharged and will literally pin you to the seat at full throttle. If you are looking for an extreme experience give it a shot. The only drawback is that it will burn up the gas a bit faster. Mike, the owner, was great and went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience

I booked a pontoon with a tube and life jackets for a 4 hr afternoon block for my family. Website made it SUPER easy to explore availability, pricing and options. Everything was transparent - no hidden fees, no fuel surcharges - just: boat, date, time, options, life jackets, done. Lock it in with contact and payment info, done. Once booked, some waivers needed signing (if this is your first boat rental experience, this is standard and to be expected) and that process was also super smooth and easy to complete electronically. Note: equally convenient was how clearly written and easy to understand the waiver docs were (note: all states require waivers like this to operate boats). I called to ask some questions and got a text response right away, followed by a return call soon after from Russell, the owner. Russell handled my excited questions with ease and I was set. I exchanged a few more text msgs on the day and his son Trent met us at the dock. He went over everything (controls, operation, safety, first-aid kit, tube, life-jackets - he even showed me of a few knots I hadn't seen before to use if we tied up anywhere). A few questions and within minutes we were boarded and on our way. Boat: clean, very comfortable leather seats, shade, tables, cooler, ladder, ropes. Everything worked and having not operated a pontoon boat previously (or any boat in about 8 years) I was very comfortable and happy navigating on the lake. Note: Lake Coeur d'Alene is BIG, with a lot of bays, inlets, topology and intricate shoreline. Pro Tip: if this is your first time renting or operating a boat on a body of water this size? You can easily get lost. Even with my past navigational experience on both oceans and lakes? I had to really concentrate on picking good way points and landmarks, and marking my throttle, speed and transit times, because hours later, after the sun shifted? Some of my marks had vanished! Where to go? We cruised South to fish for "ice cream" in Harrison proper. Plenty of space to dock and send the kids hunting for some mint chip or pralines and cream. Vibe there was super friendly and harbor was well marked and easy to navigate. We then cruised North past our original departure dock and then just parked it in the middle and went for a dip. We continued onward to explore Echo Bay and Arrow Point as well as a few others, then made our way back. Docking was easy, we tied up, unloaded, took our trash and the return was even easier. I've rented ski boats on Lake Tahoe and other vacation spots before but this was by far the best overall experience. Bonus points: there's a great food truck and restaurant dockside that s got plenty of what you need once your day is through. Cannot recommend Harrison Idaho Water Adventures more highly. It is so easy to have a bad experience at a busy vacation spot rental shop (mediocre boat, cheap gear, wonky booking, overpriced, hidden fees, poor customer service, etc., etc., etc.) ---- we had NONE of those experiences. This is a GREAT place to rent "fun" on Lake Coeur d'Alene!

We paddled up to No-Li brewery and back in that 2-hr time frame and thoroughly enjoyed our jaunt. I'd recommend this Fun Unlimited activity to anyone desiring to paddle on SUP's.

It was just prior to Memorial Day weekend, so spring had sprung we had geese with babies parade through our yard and private beach. There were bald eagles and deer everywhere. We had one bald eagle that sat on a tree for hours almost every day. The natural beauty is unrivaled and the owner and his son were so helpful and friendly. We sat for hours outside just enjoying the natural beauty and wildlife. Farragut State Park is literally right next door to the resort, a must see. We loved it there so much that we would love to retire to the area. Thank you for an amazing stay and the most adorable cabin and private beach. Also, everything you could possibly need is in the cabin, including a wine opener so you don't have to bring one. Thank you for making our 25th wedding anniversary so magical!!!!
