Crosswinds Boating Center

Terry thank for all personal attention and extra mile you go to be friendly. i am glad your there. You are a sure assets to the marina. safe secure gate family quite marina well run. Very nice.

Super reasonably priced way to spend a family afternoon doing something different! We rented a 7 passenger pontoon boat and had a great time! Of course the boats are not in perfect condition but they are rentals. There was nothing grossly wrong with the boat we had. Everything was functional and the boat ran well. Gas was $ 1 per gallon higher than at the local gas station but I imagine it costs money for them to have it delivered and brought in. Being out on the lake for 4 hours we only used $ 20 in gas. Their staff was very friendly and helpful. As small business owners ourselves we know the hard work and cost it takes to run a business. We will be back for sure!

I’ve been boating all my adult life and the new management at Crosswinds has proven the value of government imposed MONOPOLY. This is the worst run marina I’ve ever encountered This is my last year keeping my boat here. In the past 3 years since the new management took over the place has gone totally down hill. They have increased rental/​slip charges significantly, hiked the price of gasoline and eliminated 24 hour security. They have fulfilled none of their grandiose promises Things get stolen from your boat, people tie up to your slip that you have paid for and they do nothing about it they are unfriendly and uncaring. BRING BACK THE OLD MANAGEMENT!!! Their valet service for putting in boats is ridiculous. Don’t use it! They will damage your boat. It’s too bad there is no marina alternative but I guess that’s what a monopoly is all about!

I was excited about kayaking on jordan lake, but i had to ding these guys for a number of reasons that made the experience less than pleasant. i paid a flat rate up front, then had to do a second charge for my refund. i would have prefered they just hold onto the card, and only charge me once for the time used.
It’s marked decently from the road, but after going down the dirt path a sign for crosswinds specifically would have helped.
The biggest penalty however, came from not having back rests on the kayak. Frankly that’s BS. In every other location i’ve kayaked, all kayaks have had back rests attached, and there were none. i’ve come to expect them at this point, and the giving me the kayak could have cared less about the discomfort. so, i had to come in earlier than i planned because i was exhausted from holding myself up right in addition to regular paddling. –2 stars for that.
Given that there are other options at jordan lake or other locations under no circumstances would i recommend anyone kayak with crosswind rentals.
This story changes if they get back rests on the kayak, but until then, they don’t deserve your business, kayak some place else.

Boats are pretty dirty and in poor condition. The prop was even chipped! They are unashamedly unapologetic about misadvertising.

The new marina owners have been hard at work getting the place up to speed. The broken dock is fixed, the old boards have been replaced on the other docks, they seem to be building a new office, the bathrooms don’t make you want to run for the hills (they are still campgroundish bathrooms) and the staff, for the most part is pretty friendly. I wish they priced a little different on weekends during the summer. We are late boaters and usually go out in the evening when everyone else is coming in. It would be nice if they charged less after five. Other than that this is turning into a much better place. I’m so glad they took over!
