Special Policy
No. Again, these are not speed boats and are not meant for tubing or skiing.
Alcohol must be purchased at The Old Boat House, Retro Boat Rentals. All state of Michigan laws related to the consumption of alcohol on a boat apply.
It depends on the boat. Some of our boats are easier to get in and out of than others. Talk to us ahead of time and we can steer you in the right direction depending on your plans for the boat outing. Generally speaking, 3 hour boat rides are better for anchoring and swimming. We don’t allow customers to anchor our boat Lola, she’s very rare and special.
Because our Retro Boats are rare, we ask that you do not dock at the Red Dock. Unfortunately, their docks don’t have the proper protection for our boats. If you have rented a pontoon from us, feel free to dock at the Red Dock. The Donut Boats are up to Tony at the Red Dock, sometimes he’s okay with it, sometimes he’s not.
