Best decision we ever made was joining Freedom Boat Club! Boats are ready for us when we get to the docks and always clean and fueled up! The staff is very friendly and very helpful helping us load and unload when we need it.
2 months ago- Great guys, the best decision I’ve made for summer fun! Everyone of the employees work their tails off to serve us top notch.
We have been members coming up on 4 years and have not regretted it one time. We have nothing but praise for the entire Freedom Boat club experience. They are always friendly and easy to work with. Just can’t say enough it’s been GREAT !!!!!!
I've been a member since 2017 and have enjoyed it immensely. Boats are in excellent shape and availability is great. Best decision I made when I moved here.
We are going into year 3 and have never regretted making the decision to join FBC. We sat on the fence for several years contemplating ownership vs becoming a member and finally decided the math just made more sense to join. We have never looked back.
