We had a problem making it to our reserved boat rental because of a medical emergency. Lori worked with us and helped us with a reservation that worked with our schedule. We are very thankful for the service we received. We highly recommend this place.

The folks at Shields are really great. You treat them right, and they will more than reciprocate. I sincerely appreciate the service they provide and have had many wonderful mornings on the river using their watercraft. Highly recommend!

I used to keep my boat there. It was a great place called ahead and my boat would be in the water ready to go. I used to go to school with a son a wonderful atmosphere. Just a good all around family owned business.
