Great place to have your boat in the water. Best boat launches on Cedar Lake. Has a real community vibe.
I had purchased a newer used boat and had brought it to pinecrest to specifically have the trailer and bearings looked at repacked or changed if anything looked wrong. I was very specific because I have had trailer issues in the past with a previous boat and I tow my boat a lot. They said everything was fine and they repacked them. I took one trip to northern Wisconsin on the repacked bearing and I almost lost my tire on the interstate. I pulled over at a gas station to see my bearing was burning up and had grease all over my tire. I called and they stated that I took a pretty far trip and asked if I hit any big bumps. they refunded me 50% for the work they did but did not take ownership of any wrong doing. I would not recommend having your boat or trailer worked on by them.
Used to be good until they cut shore fishing because of crybaby campers. Would rate a 0 if it was an option. Owner has an attitude as well.
It’s a nice little area to to launch your boat and to have a picnic. The restrooms really need to be knocked down and new ones erected.I’m giving Pinecrest 2 stars because the manager was so rude and yelling at my daughter and I to hurry and launch our boat. My daughter was absolutely terrified because she’s trying to get acclimated to water and does not swim very well. So when a big man in a big truck starts screaming at her to launch the boat she was in tears.We are very new to boating and that is why we chose to pay for private launching.Well here’s what happened this past weekend and why we were a slow getting our boat into the water...We were very patient waiting for this gentleman to get his boat out of the water whose boat sank the night before. There were emergency 🚨 boats there helping We felt so bad for the guy. Anyway, we were next to get in the water but as we were getting in, there was so much commotion and a boat was at the end of the dock broke down and couldn’t start. It was blocking our boat. My husband launched the boat and had to unhook our truck and then park it way on the back side of the Marina. So we were a bit slow getting our boat in.With that being said, instead of helping us or asking us if there was an issue, the manager just screamed and treated us like dirt. I’m sure he is well aware of the dangers that come along with owning a boat so in the future he might wanna be more be helpful
Great friendly people owner Bob, sales professional Andrew, office staff Shannon, the service staff and a cLean nice Marina. Love our boat Bob!
Used to be a great place to picnic with the family and take the boat out. Although the bathrooms have pretty much NEVER actually been clean.. but Pinecrest sold out to the snobs. The docks have no room for visitors boats to dock to go for lunch. The entire thing is now nothing but lifts for the wealthy people to store their boats. Its sad. The general public is getting pushed out. Wouldnt surprise me in the least if Pinecrest goes full private.
Great boat launch
Pine Crest guaranteed their boat lift would work in shallow water when we ordered it. We specifically asked them if it work in shallow water because of our inboard motor. After they delivered it, they said we had to move it out where we had no pier since it was too shallow and now have to purchase a new $1000 section of pier to match.Can’t be trusted on their word.
I purchased a 10 year old used boat sight unseen from this dealer. The boat and staff exceeded any and all expectations. The purchase was smooth and problem free. They even help arrange shipping to Alabama. The boat was clean, detailed and ready to go. Looked like a new boat. These are nice professional people who enjoy their work, respect the customer and their employer. You could not find a better place to do business.
Great place to launch boata. 10$ for parking clean facility. Friendly people
Relaxing place
Good launch facility, friendly people. Great parking for bigger trailers, only down side is ramps are little short, tough to float longer boats off. Still best facility on cedar lake.
Overall good experience so far. Unfortunately, we had our gas siphoned from the storage lot which is not locked. Would also like to see the boat ramps modernized with longer run/shallower rake/wider docks, and cleats instead of eyelets. Its a tough launch. People have been nice and mostly helpful.
Very unorganized marina
Great lake, great place, a lot of tables and tree shades. Only - will be tiny beach that cant hold to much kids
Best place on Cedar Lake...Top notch services.Brian the mechanic and the whole shop is the best HANDS DOWN.
Good ramps, nice people, absolutely disgusting bathrooms...if the were repaired bathroom Id give higher rating
Awesome people great service
The parking is a joke its run by teenage kids that have unrealistic trailer parking expectations. The boat ramp is nice but you have to pay $20! Ill take my chances at the public launch
Its one of the nicest marinias around Cedar Lake. Its clean, the staff there is friendly, and they have a little beach area. They also have a campground there as well. It offers showers and bathrooms, a private beach area, private boat docks, kayak rentals, and a quite place to fish.
The water wassent cold and riding on my friends boat was so fun. There was hardly anyone there so we basically had the whole lake to ourselves.
Great service. Awesome people
Good place to launch your boat and they have spacious picnic grounds
Best launch on the lake especially if you are paticular about things
