As always, our 7 day vacation on the house boat was relaxing and a lot of fun.This year it was even the location for our wedding . Five Star was amazing in assisting with helping this fall into place.

Highly recommend! Excellent family vacation. The boats are very clean and well maintained. The team at 5 Star is attentive and knowledgeable. 4 generations on the boat for 4 days, and all went well. Beautiful and clean lake.

Great folks who run an excellent business. I'd give them six stars if available. The houseboat was nice, clean, spacious, and well appointed for our family vacation. We experienced a mechanical issue on the second day, and Dave and Nancy really took care of us with the best customer service I've ever seen. They also had the boat fixed in record time. Thanks again for an excellent experience. Rent with confidence!!

This company was fantastic from the time we booked the houseboat! They happily, quickly and thoroughly answered all of our questions about what was included on the boat. They also helped answer questions about how the experience might be for my grandmother who has trouble walking and needs a walker. When we arrived and departed everyone was friendly and worked extremely fast to help haul all of our stuff onto and off of the boat. They had wheel barrels which they loaded our belongings and carried our stuff a long distance to the boat which was much appreciated and a huge time saver. The gentleman who explained how to drive the boat was kind, patient and thorough to answer all of our questions. The company was helpful with tying us off the first night and showing us how to do it for future nights. The boat was gorgeously maintained. Loved the jacuzzi at night and the slide was fun during the day! loved the excellent swim platform and easily climbable ladder off the back of the boat (even for my grandmother). The kitchen had everything you needed and the large eating table held everyone. The living area was super comfortable. We did have some issues getting the TV to work but....you should really be out enjoying the water LOL! The upstairs bar area with the extra fridge was great and the lounge chairs were perfect for lying out in the sun!

Extremely friendly, knowledgeable folks who help you load and unload the boat. For our weekend vacation, we were assigned the Bel-Air which was a very well-kept, spacious, and quiet boat. It had a good size galley, plenty of seating, ceiling fan on both the front and upper decks with central heat and air inside, I think seven bedrooms (one with bunks), two full baths, with a slide off the back. The upper deck has a wet bar, hot tub, TV, gas grill and several lounge chairs to lay out on. And to top it off, Table Rock is a very nice lake! I would definitely recommend a trip!
