| Dolly Steamboat was worth every penny. I recommend it for visitors from out of State. Our visitors from Iowa were just amazed, as well as ourselves, at the amazing views and beauty of Canyon Lake. |

| I booked this event for my husband's birthday. We are orignally both from Wisconsin, where lakes are plentiful. It was really nice to see and be on the water in AZ, where we live now. It was so relaxing and enjoyable. I would highly recommend this to anyone. |

Do it for the ride, not the food.

| The cruise was wonderful, we even saw a bald eagle. I would recommend the less expensive afternoon cruise over the expensive dinner cruise. The prime rib was cold and not very flavorful. The chicken tasted good but was overcooked. Oh well, they are sailors, not chefs. |

| The 4 of us were shown to our table in the bow of the boat which delighted us. It was a perfect place to enjoy the scenery and take photos. The biggest surprise was the excellence of the dinner. It far exceded our expectations. The crew was so helpful especially with my husband who is handicaped. We all agreed it was worth the long trip from Sun City West. Maybe we were just lucky, but when the moon appeared, we knew we had chosen the perfect night! |

| We were celebrating our 19th anniversary with our grown son & daughter-in-law and our youngest son. It was also his 16th birthday. The way in which everything was handled, from the reservations to getting directions, to boarding and dinner was very, very nicely done. We are from Phoenix and had never seen big horn sheep before. We saw several on the trip and it was wonderful. The dinner was very well prepared, generous portions and staff was incredibly polite and welcoming. The captain and staff knew about our celebrations and made an extra effort to make it a special day for all of us.
The only thing I would change would be the sturdiness of the dinnerware. The plates were a little flimsy and hard to manage from the buffet table on the first level to the upstairs dining area. |

| We had prime rib. The server was not clear as to what was "allowed" in the serving line. She gave you no time to consider your options. My wife doesn't eat prime rib so the server gave her two chicken breasts.
I asked the server why I couldn't have her prime rib and I would give my wife my chicken breast which would give my wife two pieces and the server wouldn't allow it.
Why not I asked and she shooshed me off to the next server (a man)
I feel I was taken.
62.50 per person is a lot of money, and I felt as though the server wasn't allowing us to figure out how we could best get our money's worth.
Other than feeling I got taken by not allowing me to have the prime rib I paid for, It was a nice cruise |

| My husband and I decided to do the dinner the cruise after hearing great things about it. We enjoyed the 2.5 hour cruise - we wished it would have lasted longer. We both would recommend this to our friends and family. Also, we feel that this is better for adults and not children. |

| Scenery was wonderful, including the 6 big-horned sheep. Captain Tom narrated now and again. For 2.5 hrs of a cruise, it was worth the $, just wish the dinner had been a bit nicer/better. I would do it again for a special situation/occasion. Enjoy! |

| The whole experience was perfect. The crew was great, the facility was nice, and the food was good. The music and captain's narration of the sights were very enjoyable. Canyon Lake is among the most beautiful places on Earth. I can't think of any improvements to make. |
