They did all they could to try to assist me without having me have to drive all the way back to the dealer. I live 3 and a half hours away. The owner Andy, assured me he would take care of it when I brought it in. I made the trip back with the boat and boy did they deliver. They fixed up everything and went above and beyond. David the mechanic took the time to show me what happened and what he did to solve the problem. But David didn't stop there he did several other things that he didn't have to do but did to help me out. Things are going to happen but people and business are ultimately judged by how they react to those problems. Hughes Marine has not only earned a lifetime customer, they gained a beli

Boats can get out on the water away from the overpressurized Marina area, where there's a lot of people, and a lot of noise. No, this is just my opinion, but I've talked to several anglers who have said the same thing and the difficulty of catching fish at the bank area at Oak Hollow. If you wanted to have maybe just a picnic and casually fish, maybe this is the move. But if you're trying to catch serious fish, this is not the move. Lovely area though.

The houseboat had a slide on the rooftop deck that was so fun to use. We had packed food for ourselves so that we did not need to leave the houseboat for those 3 days. That way we maximized our time in the water! Would love to do this trip again!

Ever other boat was passing us in the lake, including every other pontoon boat. The boat itself was clean and worked well but was a bit torn up and dented in places. Only other complaint was the horn and radio not working - supposed to be used to signal danger, etc. They said we had to use the whistle instead of the horn. We asked if we could just get a different boat and the woman replied "I think none of our boats have horns that work."

It's easy to locate everything, and people are usually friendly. The only thing we don't like is that the playground area is always soft and soggy feeling even when it's been a week or more since rain. Our kids hate feeling like they're sinking in the dirty mulch.

Lake Johnson Park is one of Raleigh's best spots when you want a workout that actually comes with a…read moreview. The 3-mile loop gave me the perfect mix of cardio, scenery, and just enough challenge to keep things interesting. The trail is mostly paved and very well maintained, but there are also a few off-road paths if you want to switch things up. The lake views are gorgeous throughout the walk, and the heavily wooded sections make it feel peaceful and shaded even on warmer days. I also appreciated that the trail has a few solid uphill stretches. I'd say it's ideal for intermediate walkers, runners, or cyclists looking for a scenic challenge without venturing into hardcore hiking territory. The only downside is the parking situation, which can get pretty tight during busy hours. Still, once you're on the trail, it's absolutely worth it. Raleigh really lucked out with this gem of a park.

I had no plan to rent a boat but the fleet looked well cared for (almost new) and I jumped. The crew was really nice and helpful. I took out a "Tritoon"with a 200hp Yamaha. The lake is huge and there is some amazing sightseeing. I found a cove, anchored, finished up some work and then went for a swim. My 2 hour rental flew by and when I arrived back at the dock, the crew was waiting to help dock and replace my used fuel. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. For a spur of the moment adventure it was amazing. I highly recommend Bridgewater Marine.

The service here is unbeatable. They really go above and beyond from the moment you show up, till the moment you leave. All the boys down at the dock were very friendly and helpful. The most shining part is when we left our phone in the vessel upon returning. Phone nowhere to be found and the business was closed. I was able to contact their office and their staff helped locate the boat, send someone out to pickup the device (miles away from the dock) and drive it all the way back for us. Huge shoutout to everyone who helped. 100% going to be a returning customer on future visits and 100% recommend them to anyone considering.
