For over a decade Harris has been servicing and storing our boat and pontoon with exemplary service. I've always found them to be courteous, helpful and extremely professional.

Big thanks to Harris Boat Works (Graham in particular) for getting me back on the road after I blew a wheel bearing at 4:45pm on a Friday afternoon. I'm so grateful that Graham was willing to help me out as I was passing through the Rice Lake region when he could have easily said that his work week was over.
I can't thank him enough. Definitely come see Harris Boat Works. They go above and beyond.
Thank you!

Great family owned and operated business. Have had my boats seasonal maintenance and small repairs done here with no complaints at all. Always great workmanship and professional service. Lots of parking and great launch ramp with docks. I will always go back to Harris Boat Works for service and to launch the boat into rice lake👌

Nice spot to launch your boat. Decent prices. We cam on a Sunday and it was busy, but not too busy for the weekend. Lots of things you can get here.

It’s easy to get here, plenty of parking. We were here to launch non-motorized watercraft, the staff were helpful in guiding us and the fee was $10/vehicle. We enjoyed the scenery very much.
One thing to be cautious though, the signal is weak here for smaller service providers such as Freedom Mobile.

From start to finish... this business was professional, courteous, charming, kind and positive. I had a day full of challenges before getting there but after arriving and dealing with Harris staff, it was like a breath of fresh air... the afternoon ended with completely wonderful service - which i truly appreciated.
Something urgent happened with my boat at the end and they helped me out, meanwhile while being very fair on pricing.
Gems!
Thanks to Ryan, Mikala, Mary for everything.
p.s. - it should be mentioned that during my arrival some boater had called 911, saying that their husband and

Awesome place with friendly staff! Lots of room to park your car and trailer once you launch your boat for the day! Washrooms were clean and social distancing measures were in place. The boat shop is very convenient, we noticed a blown bulb on our trailer before heading back home to brampton and we were able to purchase a bulb there so we could safely tow. Thank you for your awesome service!

This year we rented a pontoon for a whole week. Even though it wasn’t a common rental, we were able to secure it. The team at Harris is awesome! From the maintenance staff, Mikayla, to Mary in the shop... they… were all great. They spent the time to walk us through the rental, the map and obviously the vessel. We came back to the marina about 4 times throughout the week to fill up... and to get ice scream obviously ;)
We were stopped by the OPP on the water for a spot check. Once they heard we rented from Harris, we were rice lake approved. They said that Harris is the most reputable
