Approximately two months ago, I hit a terrible storm on Lake Hopatcong and totaled our boat.
Thank God that the insurance company gave us some money so I could put it towards another boat for my son who has Autism. Being on the lake is definitely his happy place.
Unfortunately, after driving to four or five different marinas there was nothing that I would feel comfortable with my son being in for a good price.
The boats that I felt comfortable in for him were completely out of our budget.
I was on my way to go look at a boat at another marina for the third time. I was basically just going to settle on this boat that we found because it was the best thing that we saw in the last month.
As I drove to the other marina, I noticed this huge beautiful Marina with the doors open.
Something told me to turn my car around and my son and I walked in. Immediately I was greeted by a wonderful woman named Giselle.
We had an immediate connection and she couldn’t have been any more wonderful and accommodating to my son.
She clearly was in the middle of 100 different things, but she stopped what she was doing and focused on my son and I.
She went on the computer and showed me boats that were in my price range and I fell in love with a 2012 Chaparral.
She got on the phone with the manager and told him that my son and I were coming down to see the boat because it was at their other location.
I left there, knowing that I made a friend forever in Giselle!!! I told her I would stop back and let her know how I liked it.
I met with the manager, Mike, who was absolutely also amazing and within 20 minutes of me getting there, they had trailered the boat and put it in the water to take my son and I for a ride.
I knew immediately after being on the water that I wanted this boat for my son. It had everything that I was looking for and I felt very safe.
After taking a ride on the boat, I met with another wonderful, kind person named Kyle who is the son-in-law of the owner.
I swear the hour and a half that I spent with these people I felt like I knew them forever!!!!
Having a 23 year-old with autism who is with me every day can be very challenging but when I tell you everybody that I came in contact with at Prospect Point Marina were beyond exceptional to My son and I.
Most people don’t even try to talk to my son, but they all made every attempt to include him and made him and I feel totally comfortable!!!!
My ex-husband went later that day and met with them and gave them a check for the boat and he agreed with me that they were absolutely beyond wonderful!!!!
They invited us to come back the next day for their open house and I felt like I have known them for years.
Thank God there are still wonderful, kind, honest, and compassionate people in the...
Read moreI recently had a disappointing experience at Prospect Point Marina's Brady location. We visited on 7/23/24 to look at boats and were shown two options by Jazelle, neither of which fit our needs. She mentioned that the salesman wasn't available and suggested we come back the next day. To avoid wasting our trip, we visited Marine Max across the street, where we found a boat that perfectly matched our requirements and decided to purchase it.
The following day, my wife called Jazelle to secure a boat slip for the rest of the 2024 season and the next year. Jazelle confirmed availability, and we planned to visit on 7/25 to finalize the details. However, when we arrived, Jazelle seemed surprised and unhelpful after learning we purchased elsewhere. She informed us, after consulting her manager, that they could no longer offer us the slip.
As a previous customer who rented a jet ski slip, I'm baffled by the unprofessional behavior and poor customer service, especially since we intended to use their services for storage and maintenance. Turning away a loyal customer because we bought a boat from another dealer is baffling. Very...
