If you schedule a tour, please show up on time. The guide waited on people that was late. Also, don't take a tour if you plan to be disruptive and talk about non-related items the entire tour. The tour guide had a lot of patience with the audience, and we could tell that the constant laughter and cackling was a distraction to him.

My wife and I are retired and wanted to purchase a significant boat upgrade from what we currently…read morehad to serve for both fishing and recreation for ourselves, our children & grandchildren. After researching and visiting and communicating with other dealers, we made an appointment and made a trip to Hennepin Marine. Deciding our wants, needs, and budget were all important in our final decision. Our sales representative that we met with on our two visits there before ordering our boat was Adam. He could not have been better to work with on getting to exactly what we wanted for every aspect of our boat. Adam was knowledgeable, extremely helpful, very patient, and never ever pushy. The kind of guy you look forward to dealing with long term. In addition we met and visited with the owner, Rick, who also a great guy and very helpful & knowledgeable. Although Hennepin Marine was a few hours drive for us and there were other dealers closer, we got exactly the boat we wanted, at a very fair price, and from a dealer we will enjoy working with for years to come. We can't recommend them enough.

This looks like a great place to launch a boat. It is definitely the place to observe geese! If we…read morehad had more time, we would have parked, sat on a bench, and watched them do what geese do. We pulled into the parking lot, didn't have time to see if there was more to do, so we drove on. The GPS directed us away from the neighborhood into which the parking lot exit dumped us, so there are two ways in and out. But GPS only showed one way in and out.

I bought my first boat ever at an outdoor show this past January, from Lake Holiday Marina. As I…read morehad no place to store a boat at that point in time, my salesman, Parker, indicated they would hold the boat for me until the weather broke. That gave me plenty of time to make room to park the boat at my property. There was no storage fee for this. A big advantage for me was that because they are a marina, when I went to pick up boat, Parker took me out on the lake and showed me the nuances and safety features of operating the boat. Again, this was my first time owning a boat, so being able to pick up my boat at the dock vs a dealer's show room was a big plus. As often happens with a new vehicle, weather it be a car or a boat, I had a couple minor problems, e.g. a defective battery. I had also broken a couple of the tire down clips and the winch was bent which made bringing the boat onto the trailer difficult. I contacted Parker, who introduced me to Greg the Service Manager. Greg is a great guy and really easy to get along with. He offered to fix everything, albeit much of the work was under warranty, with no fuss or condescending "how did YOU do this?", or otherwise implying everything was fault. I can't say enough about what great guys Parker and Greg are to work with. At no time did I feel pressured to buy anything. Both guys are eager to help and readily available to answer questions. Parker was extremely patient in dealing with my "newbie" phone calls! One while actually on a lake fishing! If you are in the market for a new boat, definitely check these guys out.

I told him we'd paid for it and hadn't picked up the boat and that he needed to find our property and HE LAUGHED AT ME and said he wasn't interested in finding my property. He then had his secretary or office manager call me back to tell me that everything was paid WEEKS ago and to confirm that we picked up the boat. I told her we hadn't and about Tom's response. She ultimately found our boat and we have it now, but we will NEVER do business with them again. Stay away from this place unless you want to be threatened, laughed at and have your property lost-when you are in the right.
