| We traveled 120 miles with great friends on a trip that was a mystery to them for there anniversary.When we arrived at the dock they were surprised to see that we where going on the"DOLLY" for a river cruise and dinner.The big surprise was how great the crew was,how beautiful the trip was and how GREATTTTT!!!!!! the food was.We would drive the 120 miles again(that's one way) to take this trip.Rate it as a must do trip for all ages.
Thank you,

| This is a view of Arizona that everyone should see. You can't beat the scenery, and the food is good too. Good food and over-the-top scenery makes this a great value and a must-do. We are new residents of Arizona. We plan to be return customers for this cruise when our out-of-town family comes to visit. |

| My husband and I did this for our 11th anniversary. The food was OK, but we were there for the ambience more than anything. The weather was great (not too hot, not too cool), and we just loved the captain. We took someone elses advice from here, and requested open air upper deck seating. We are so glad we did. The covered section would have blocked so much of the canyon view. Don't worry that it'll be too hot. Once you enter the canyon, it is quite shady and nice. We LOVED it and will definitely do it again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

| My husband and I went on the cruise to celebrate our 28th wedding anniversary. It was our second time on the cruise, and I enjoyed it more this last time! The cruise left on time and the staff and captain were very cordial, professional and personable.
The captain was very knowledgable in the little nuances of the lake and canyons, and he made sure to inform everyone about safety instructions before and after the cruise.
Soft music was our constant companion which made the evening even more enchanting while viewing the sheer cliffs and small waterways of Canyon Lake. We took plenty of pictures!
The food was really good and served with a smile. They served the food on glass plates and the tables and chairs were comfortable with plenty of room between tables. There was plenty of iced tea, lemonade, water and coffee during the cruise.
We especially enjoyed the return trip. A full moon peeking over the canyon wall, spilling moonlight onto the water, while a cool breeze touched our faces. It was just beautiful!
We will definitely be back! Thank You! |

| The scenery was stunningly beautiful. Who knew that this glorious combination of deep blue water and sheer cliffs even existed in Arizona? I've lived her over five years, and had no idea.
Tickets to the dinner cruise on Canyon Lake were a surprise birthday gift to my date. We had both heard of the Dolly Steamboat from friends. My date had previously been to the lake for hiking, but the cruise revealed the true beauty of the place.
All the information that I provided about the evening's activities were a simple wardrobe tip, what time to be ready to leave, and that we would be having dinner. So the lake cruise was truly an unexpected welcome event.
We found it to be peaceful and calming, very romantic, and a nice change from the work-a-day world.
Immediately, a plan was made to come back next year, but this time to attend the Astronomy Cruise with Dr. Skye.
The only criticism is that, in my opinion, the catering could try a little harder. The food provided was good, but seemed a bit mundane. Perhaps one more vegetable dish with a fresh ingredients would be a good addition.

| We took the dinner cruise as a celebration dinner for my mom's retirement. We had 8 adults (ages 25 - 56) and one child (9) and it was just a very relaxing, enjoyable way to spend an evening. Being that it was still a warm time of year, but the boat wasn't completely booked, and I have to say this worked to our advantage. There was plenty of room to move about and enjoy different views. The food was excellent as well. We all enjoyed every aspect of the meal and appreciated how fresh everything tasted. The captain and his crew were extremely friendly and accomodating. I would definitely book this cruise again for a special occasion. |

| We had a great time on this cruise. The captian told us a lot about the lakes history.
The food was very good, there was a enough that you didn't go away still hungry.
The cruise is non smoking but that didn't bother me even though i am a smoker. you were kept entertained by the captian and the music that is played.
I would take this cruise again. |
