We were in Arizona for a birthday trip and our captain TK was nothing short of amazing! He was so helpful, knowledgeable, and sweet! He had a great time with our group and would recommend him to anyone!! He was such a blessing to our boat day! The company itself was also great, very easy to book and the communication was excellent. 10/10!!!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Another Fantastic Experience!
This was our second time renting a boat from this company during our Arizona trip, and once again, we had a wonderful experience!
Julio was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. He was prompt, friendly, informative, and extremely professional. He made everything so easy for our family of 12. He even texted us pinpoint locations for drop-off and fueling, which was incredibly helpful, and he was always accessible whenever we had a question.
He was right on time for both the drop-off and pick-up, and when it came time to load the boat back onto his trailer, he was incredibly patient with us and never made us feel rushed.
It’s the little things that make an experience stress-free, and Julio definitely went above and beyond to make sure everything went smoothly.
Having rented from them twice now, we can honestly say they’re our go-to when we’re in Arizona. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, professional, and easy boating rental experience. We’ll definitely be back! 🚤☀️

This was the 2nd time we've rented a boat from Westside Recreation, and it won't be the last! Julio helped us out this time. He was very communicative - he texted us while we were driving up to the lake to introduce himself, sent us useful locations so we could better navigate around the lake, and was all-around lovely. The boat was great and easy to use - we had shade and a sound system and had a perfect day celebrating my son's 16th birthday with all of his friends!
I couldn’t be happier with our experience with Westside Recreation!
We were literally about 15 minutes from Lake Pleasant when I called them, and within minutes they had us completely set up to reserve a boat for the day. About 30 minutes later, I was meeting Jesus in the parking lot with a Yamaha 242X E-Series ready to go.
Jesus was fantastic. He was patient, took the time to go over the boat in detail, and answered every question we had. Since I grew up on the water and have been water skiing since I was a kid, being able to give my wife and four kids an unforgettable day on the lake was pretty special.
I wasn’t familiar with all the technology on the newer wake boats, but Jesus walked me through all the controls and showed me how to quickly transition the boat from skiing to wake surfing. He made everything easy to understand, and we felt completely comfortable before heading out.
Thank you to Jesus and Westside Recreation for making our day on the water the highlight of our Arizona vacation. My kids will be talking about this day for a long time.
We will definitely be back!

We had the BEST experience with Westside Recreation for our bachelorette weekend in Scottsdale! We rented a pontoon boat for a day at Lake Pleasant, and everything was absolutely perfect from start to finish. The boat was spacious, clean, and ready for us right when we arrived, making the whole experience super easy and stress-free.
A very special shout-out to our captain, Aaron, who was AMAZING! He made sure we were having the best time the entire day, kept the energy and fun going, and went above and beyond to make our bachelorette celebration so memorable. He was so friendly, accommodating, and genuinely made the day that much better. We couldn’t have asked for a better captain!
We also used Vistancia Rides to get us from Scottsdale to Lake Pleasant and back, and they were fantastic as well! Everything went smoothly, and having reliable transportation made the entire day even easier.
Between the beautiful lake, spacious boat, amazing captain, and great service, Westside Recreation helped make our bachelorette weekend unforgettable! We would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a fun and seamless day on the water!
