| no system to allow those arriving early to give them priority when forming line to get boarding passes. There should be a number system allowing people to be served when the ticket window opens based on their arrival not who can jump to the front of the line first. |

| The Dolly Steamboat was a very beautiful and enjoyable trip. I would recommend everyone who is in Arizona to do this activity. The Cannon’s are breathtaking and the music along with the history was wonderful. I plan to do this again my next visit to Arizona, however I would like to go on the dinner cruise.
Please remember to stop at their restaurant adjacent to the Dolly Steamboat either before or after your ride, the food is delicious |

| My family and I took the day cruise on a Wednesday afternoon. Because it was still warmer temperatures, we saw only a blue heron and some birds flying above the cliffs. However, the trip through the canyon was very enjoyable and interesting. If you enjoy taking nature photos, this is a trip you should take! I probably took 60-80 photos in 90 minutes.
When we pulled up to the dock, I felt as if we had only been out for half an hour to 45 minutes. My two-year old was a bit restless towards the end; however, the older children on the trip seemed to enjoy the trip thoroughly. I plan to go back for the dinner cruise next! |

| THIS WAS A GOOD AN RELAXING WAY TO SEE THE BEAUTIFUL ARIZONA SCULPTURED CLIFFS. THE POINTS OF INTEREST WERE WELL DESCRIBED BY THE CAPTAIN, AND HIS ASSISTANTS ON BOTH DECKS WERE HELPFUL. |

| I brought my family including my husband and 4 kids (ranging from 2 months to 12 years) as well as my parents who were visiting from the Northeast. What a wonderful time for all! The narration of sights by the Captain were informative and fun, the view was beautiful, and the overall trip was well worth the drive. We are looking forward to signing up for the Twilight Dinner Cruise! |

| Canyon Lake is larger than it appears. By going on the cruise you go through a narrow canyon that takes you back into the desert. We didn't see any animals on our cruise but there is always that possibility. I would consider taking the dinner cruise at a later date. |

| The Dolly Steamboat trip was pleasant and relaxing. The staff was accommodating and the boat itself was comfortable and provided covering from the sun. The timing of the 90-minute cruise was sufficient to be able to enjoy all of the beautiful lake scenery.
I look forward to taking other out-of-town guests aboard the Dolly. |

| Taking a trip on the Dolly Steamboat at Canyon Lake is like riding through a "Mini" Grand Canyon. The beauty of the rocks, the crisp, stillness of the water, the vegetation growing from the sides of the cliffs.....and sometimes catching sight of wildlife along the way makes for a wonderful adventure as you enjoy the ride.
This is a "must" stop when we have out of state company visiting us. They always are impressed with the lake's beauty and the friendliness of the people working on the Dolly Steamboat.
Keep up the good work.
