Relaxing and Beautiful

It was the most relaxing and enjoyable 2 1/2 hours spent. The food was great, the view was undescribeable and the ship crew were very friendly and knowledgeable.

3/5 stars

Very dirty Lake (lots of trash, mirky waters), geriatric crowd on the twilight dinner cruise. Food was ok (not great), staff extremely friendly and very attentive (if it were not for the staff, would have scored 2/5 stars. Star gazing was nice, but pretty pitch dark for last 30 minutes of cruise. Pretty expensive for what they offer.

We really enjoyed our trip on the Dolly. It was a very relaxing way to spend our Saturday. I would highly recommend purchasing tickets in advance. We boarded according to our boarding pass number. The first to pick up their boarding pass at the ticket booth boarded first. There were plenty of good seats so don't worry if you are not in the first couple of boarding groups. The captain and crew were great. If you want to picnic before your boat trip you will want to go early as they do not have picnic tables within walking distance of the ticket booth. You can still picnic close by, but then you will want to drive over to the parking lot. We didn't have small children with us, but the trip did seem kid friendly and the children on board seemed to have fun.

Beautiful, Peaceful

This was a relaxing tour of the lake and canyons. The weather was beautiful, as was the scenery. I was disappointed that I didn't see any wildlife, other than a few birds of prey, but maybe next time. The accommodations are first class...comfortable and clean vessel, nice snack bar, nice staff, well organized. I'd like to return sometime for the dinner cruise.

Pleasant ride, beatiful scenery
Sat, Apr 12, 08   2:00 PM mattfalk11 Male 30-39 Local Couple on a Date
It was our first time on the lake, and will definitely have to return to try out some of the other activities offered there. We enjoyed seeing the eagles or falcons flying overhead, and I even managed to see a few bighorn sheep. We were a little surprised to see that almost all of the other passengers were well older than us, but they were a very nice group of people and we enjoyed talking with them. The music seemed a little overdramatic and corny to us at times, particularly the bit with Bach (but the rock formation itself was cool), and Titanic music. However, that was merely a minor quibble for what turned out to be a very enjoyable experience. We're certainly glad we went!

Romantic Fun

A great way to spend a summer's evening in Arizona is the Dolly Twilight Dinner Cruise on Canyon Lake. Just to get to the lake is fun, as the 15 mile ride up the Apache Trail is full of twists and turns and desert beauty. The Dolly Steamboat Cruise left promptly at 5:30 PM, with the happy music of "Hello, Dolly!" The desert canyons and steep, rocky cliffs were awsome to see. There was always the possiblity of seeing some desert wildlife, and our Captain was quick to point them out. He also pointed out interesting and fun rock formations. The cruise took a wonderful turn when the sun starting setting. And dinner was delicious and well organized. Great fun for 2 1/2 hours!

Beautiful, relaxing, highly recommended

If you're looking for a way to enjoy some of our most beautiful desert scenery, I highly recommend this cruise. The setting is very relaxing, the crew gracious and accommodating, and the dinner was very good. I think children and maybe even young adults might find it a tad boring, but we found the cruise to be peaceful, relaxing, and a great way to unwind. A very enjoyable experience, we'll definately go again.

Do it for the ride, not the food.
Sat, Apr 12, 08   5:30 PM jessecameron Male 30-39 Local Couple on a Date
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.

Great way to decompress
Sat, Apr 12, 08   5:30 PM dfheath Female 50-59 Local Couple on a Date
Would recommend this for anyone who is stressed out and just need to get away. The staff was great, food was good, great way to get nature pictures. There was soft music playing but would have prefered just the sounds of nature. Of course they would have to add a charge for returning sleeping patrons to their cars.

This is my forth time on this ride but I had clients in from the East Coast and they wanted to see a piece of Arizona in the tight time sturture they had while here. What better to do than Tortilla Flats and then the Dolly ride. They were so impressed and loved it. The Captain was very good and kept everyone informed. Thanks for the fun!

A Wonderful Boat Ride Through God's Created Canyon
Sun, Apr 13, 08   2:00 PM BeverlyJean Female 70+ Local Other
The natural vistas and phenomena of the park and Canyon Lake with its many inlets and coves attest to the marvelous creation of God. I was with a group from our church and we enjoyed picnicking near the marina and taking the 1 1/2 hour cruise on the Dolly. The narrator and staff of the Dolly were courteous, well informed and provided an interesting ride on the lake and through the canyons. I would recommend this ride to any who like to relax and enjoy viewing beautiful nature and socializing with people.

Had a great time

I went with local friends for a birthday celebration and then the following week with friends visiting from Massachusetts. Enjoyed both trips. Planning on going back for the dinner cruise. The trip is enjoyable and the narration fun. The only drawback was the price. The hour and a half went by very quickly and still not sure it was worth $20.00 a person. That was the only drawback. the scenery was beautiful. Definately would recommend.
