A Great Adventure, but...

| From the time we stepped on the Dolly till the moment we departed, we thoroughly enjoyed the Twilight Dinner Cruise for its' ambience, the accommodations, the staff, the food - and above all the spectacular views. Capt. Tom and Janet did a great job. In fact, it was a great adventure, but...
When making your reservations online, you are asked to fill in a comment field that reads, "USE THIS SPACE ONLY IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO SEND A MESSAGE TO THE SELLER. THIS MESSAGE WILL APPEAR ALONG WITH YOUR BOOKING INFORMATION". My message was "This is a special occasion. We are both celebrating our birthdays (May 1 and May 4)
Clearly, the message was either not received, or not found important enough to cause any interest, because the event was not mentioned or recognized in any way. We were two of three individuals celebrating birthdays that evening. The other gentleman was recognized more than once by Captain Tom who in fact, sang "Happy Birthday" to him over the loudspeaker. I wasn't expecting dancing girls and a cash prize, but I did expect to be recognized.
Granted, this may be considered by some to be small potatoes compared to the rest of the evening, but when someone asks for comments, it gives the impression that someone will actually read them.
Perhaps THIS "comment" will be read by the "Seller" and they will be more considerate in the future.
By the way...we were two of only 19 people on the cruise that evening. (May 6) We were a little hard to miss.

| Nice cruise. Support staff was friendly. This evening cruise sported a filling dinner that was fine, served "controlled buffet" style. Beautiful scenery and many pics were taken.
We were expecting more history and background from the Captain or crew ; the Captain's comments, however, were appreciated. Got the feeling the crew was a bit worn out from working so many lake cruises.
Recommend butter replace margarine on the condiments bar. After all patrons are served and seated, recommend that staff circulate with water/tea/coffee rather than requiring people to leave their tables, travel to the beverage containers, and walk back and sit down. |

Great time!

| Great scenery, good food, very enjoyable. I would highly recommend this cruise to anyone. The only negative was that it could have left about 30 minutes earlier or been that much shorter. We still would have seen the sunset, but it wouldn't have been pitch black when we got off. |

Enjoyable evening out of the norm

| The dinner cruise was enjoyable. Very peaceful out on the lake and very relaxing. Food was certainly not gourmet 5 star but it was an enjoyable meal of good quality and done well given that you have 100 people on a boat. |

| If you don't have time to do anything else while in the Mesa area, you have got to do the dinner cruise! IT WAS WONDERFUL!!! The food was very good. Captain, Jeff, was great and the "staff" was wonderful. We had a enjoyable time. We were kept well informed of all of the attractions and animals. Next time we are down that way, we intend to do it again. |

An enjoyable and relaxing evening.

| Your sunset cruise was very enjoyable. The staff was excellent and the food was delicious. The Captains comments and knowledge of the area were appreciated and at times humorous. The scenery – awesome!
It's a great way to spend an evening with the atmosphere of a dinner cruise, the scenery and a time of relaxation and enjoyment.
While we were not with any group, just my wife and myself, we will definitely schedule another cruise sometime in the future when back in the area. We have already recommended it to some of our friends.

| This is a great way to unwind and view the beauty of Canyon Lake. Our guests did not realize how large Canyon lake actually is.
The food was good and the service was excellent. |

| A most enjoyable dinner cruise. The captain's narration was excellent. Just enough, not too much. The music selection was perfect for the occasion. Staff was helpful and pleasant.
All in all, a most enjoyable experience. |

| The cruise was very interesting & the scenery was excellent. We sat on the upper deck which is covered, so it was warm inside. The food served was bacon wrapped filet with a baked potatoe and vegtables. This menu was proper for the occasion but the steak was overcooked & dry. |
