Pamela_C, Mar 2023

Staff was friendly & very helpful (turned swan around to make it easier for me to disembark). 7:30 peddle time meant swans were lighted, which we liked. Only aggravation was a very squeaky peddle, which took away from experience.

This was a lovely place to go, especially with a partner. it’s very cute at night with the lights of the city and other boats. it was a bit of a plain ride(water area was smaller than expected) but overall a great experience.

Hannah_K, Nov 2022

At first, the employees were somewhat rude and very vague with any questions we had. That was the only negative thing. The boat ride was really fun and the kids had a blast!
