Elevated Wake, takes water sports to a new level…read more Bottom Line up Front: Customer service is definitely priority number one. Having used other water sports companies in Lake Winnipesaukee, Elevated Wake, exceeded expectations. Also, ask for Ryan and Alex! THE GOOD: Elevated Wake was Great! From the pre-flight the night before, the coaching by the crew, to the playlist during the trip, this place reigned supreme. Preflight: they stopped by the night before to make sure they knew where we were located; then they showed up the next day a few minutes early to ensure we got our full scheduled time. Additionally, they had all the gear on board to allow adults and kids to water ski, wake surf and tube. We had used other companies (not to be named here) the last two years, which dropped the ball in that area. Coaching: Ryan and Alex were spectacular! They had great patience, knew exactly what to say and do and when to say and do it. They were able to get the young kids in our group up and skiing within a few runs. Alex (who happens to be on a college water-skiing team in Florida) took the time to work with our kids and physically demonstrated the steps to stand up on skis using the tow rope. She then had them repeat the steps before getting in the water. The results success. Alex and Ryan(who was the Captain at the time) had great crew coordination and were able to effectively communicate take-off and acceleration speeds. Ryan was the coach for wake-surfing and he did a phenomenal job. He easily explained body positions using analogies, such as the gas pedal is the forward foot and the brake is the back foot, and coached body position to enables surfers to get into the sweet spot in a few tries. They both get A-pluses on a job well done! Playlist: Everything goes better with great music and Ryan's playlist was Sierra Hotel (military speak for awesome)! He had summer tunes from the sixties to the present; from the Beach Boys to Boston, Jimmy Eat World to Jack Johnson, Bob Marley to Sublime, he had a great playlist! He knows his music and we had some great discussions. THE BAD: The only thing bad was that we did not book more time. THE UGLY: Absolutely nothing! They nailed it. I was so impressed that I was trying to recruit both Ryan and Alex. Where others fail, Elevated Wake Prevails!

The rest of the staff are positive and enjoyable folks through my interactions...I enjoy when they poke fun at Raj (sorry Raj haha). I noticed issues from the factory, they took care of the critical stuff and will take care of the rest when I bring the boat back in. It was easy, and they were attentive to my concerns and friendly. I plan to use them going forward if possible. Thanks! John Williams

The entire crew including Alex, the owner and all the girls who work in the store are very friendly and go out of there way to help you out! When launching or taking your boat out of the water the crew goes way out of there way to help you out as well. We had a problem with the bilge pump in our boat not working during those recent crazy rain storms. Alex and the owner made sure the water level did not get to high in the boat and pumped the water out several times!

Our family had our first vacation at Mills Falls in Merideth, NH. We were all so excited because…read moreit was my mom, us 6 children and our spouses. We rented a Pontoon Boat from Meridith Marina for 3 days. We had a fantastic vacation all the way up until we returned the pontoon boat. John Abear, the Service Manager, found a supposed "Rub Mark" on one of the supports and gave us a bill for $ 2,989.00! We explained we never went near any other vessels and had the boat tied up by itself at the private Mills Falls dock. We explained this to Mr Abear, but it did not matter. One of our members is an insurance adjuster and runs into these types of situations often. He attempted to discuss that fact that most organizations will hire a company to buff out the "Rub Mark". Mr. Abear dismissed the thought immediately. We got 3 quotes from other marina's. The prices to repair the rub mark ranged from $ 385 to just under $ 900. Mr Abear again dismissed the results of our efforts immediately. A wonderful Once in a Lifetime vacation was tainted by an unscrupulous Mr. Abear at Meredith Marina. Mr Abear has a real racket going. He charges unsuspecting people for the boat rental and then comes back and charges them almost the same amount for a blemish on their vessel. Meridith Marina must make almost as much money from damage fees as they do for rentals. I would really like to know if other families have run into the same dishonesty that we experienced. And, we would appreciate any supporting comments from others that have experienced the same type of treatment. Signed, I will Never, Ever do business or refer Mr. Abear and Meridith Marina. What a disappointment!!

The gas was cheap since we had a small engine -- you pay for the gas at the end based off of how much of the tank you use. The service men and women at the dock were super nice. We were 15 minutes late returning the boat, but it was the end of the day and didn't ask for a late fee (it's usually a lot if you're 30 minutes late or more). The deal was awesome, the views awesome! No boating license needed because of the small engine. Overall amazing.
