Awesome. We loved it. We booked and got in for the ride almost immediately. Pretty cheap. $13 per person and we were in the boat till it closed at 11pm actually like 10:57pm. We sat in the back seat, watched the stars and just let the waves ride the bost until we were ready to return. It was a cool evening, the environment was just warm and friendly. The staff were just amazing as well. It was such a fantastic experience a great way to end our day. I'm glad I took my girl on the boat ride to relax yesterday night. She loved it as well. We got to plan our next outing on the boat, reflect on our day and now we are making good on the plans we made on the boat. Was a fun experience and a great way to end the day.
My son and I had a great time. Staff is friendly and helpful.
Everything was fantastic. Helpful staff and very friendly. Ty
Very fun and surprisingly exhausting! It was a beautiful day and a fun way to see the park. I’m so glad we did this.
The lake was beautiful Swans a little hard to get in and out of
This was great! Very affordable and easy to peddle the boat. We went on a Tuesday afternoon and it was not busy at all.
The staff was helpful & friendly. The lake is pretty, the ducks swimming around add to the charm as do the fountain & flowers.
The swan boat company wouldn’t accept our ticket and we had to buy one through their website. They said that Viator was a 3rd party ticket and I wasn’t aware of that.
It’s only $13 per person for an hour. The instructions were pretty clear. There is a learning curve so just be sure to steer a bit or push pedals a bit harder to make turns. Safety vests are required and provided before getting on the docks. The big fountain in the middle was a nice addition giving some cooling relief for the 100-degree weather. Perfect for photos or videos. If you get too close to the fountain just prepare to get soaked. Definitely a perfect summer activity. I would do it again for sure!
Make sure to get there early for parking. The place was really easy to find the staff were really helpful. There’s a treasure hunting app that you can download when you get on the paddle boat. Make sure the lifejacket that they give you fits if it doesn’t let them know, and they will kindly give you a larger or smaller life jacket.
