Sand Hollow Jet Ski Rentals – Quail Creek Reservoir Waverunner Adventure
Sand Hollow and Quail Creek give you two Utah reservoirs to explore from the seat of a powerful three-person jet ski. You can choose a 2019 Sea-Doo 130 Pro or a Yamaha 110hp, then set your own start time between sunup and sundown.
I like the chance to use one rental for a family-sized outing, and I like the easy add-on choices, from tubing to kneeboarding and wakeboarding. The main catch is price: $995 per group of up to three is a serious spend, especially once fuel, water toys, and optional insurance are added.
Key points to know before booking

- Two Utah reservoirs: The experience is designed around Sand Hollow Reservoir and Quail Creek Reservoir near Hurricane and St. George.
- Three-person machines: Pick a 2019 Sea-Doo 130 Pro or Yamaha 110hp rental for a small group outing.
- Flexible timing: You can start at a time that suits you, with operation offered from sunup to sundown.
- Water toys cost extra: Tubing, kneeboarding, and wakeboarding are available as optional additions.
- Fuel is not included: Life vests and taxes are covered, but plan for a separate fuel charge.
- Simple meeting point: Begin and finish at 55 N 3700 W, Hurricane, Utah 84737.
Two reservoirs, one three-hour outing
The appeal here is variety. Rather than spending the whole rental on one stretch of water, you’re offered access to both Sand Hollow Reservoir and Quail Creek Reservoir. The advertised duration is about three hours, so you’ll want to keep an eye on the clock if you hope to enjoy both.
Sand Hollow is the better-known recreational setting in this experience. It is described as having sandy beaches and attractive views, with room for swimming and family play. That makes it a natural base for a group that wants more than a fast ride. You can cruise, stop for a swim, or use the jet ski to tow a water toy.
Quail Creek gives the outing a second setting and a change of pace. The available information does not promise a fixed route, a guided crossing, or a particular order for the reservoirs. Ask the staff at pickup how the three hours are normally divided and if both reservoirs are practical on your chosen day.
The flexibility is useful, but it also means this is not a tightly scripted sightseeing tour. You are renting access to the machines and the water, not joining a narrated excursion with scheduled stops. That suits confident families and groups that want freedom more than a formal program.

Choosing between the Sea-Doo and Yamaha

You can select a 2019 Sea-Doo 130 Pro or a Yamaha 110hp three-person rental. Both are presented as newer, well-kept machines, and the available customer comments repeatedly praise their condition and reliability.
That matters on a family water day. A clean, newer machine should feel less like a gamble than an aging rental, especially when you plan to tow children on a tube or board. The difference between 130 horsepower and 110 horsepower may matter when towing, but the supplied information does not specify performance comparisons between the two models.
I would ask three useful questions before choosing:
- Which machine is available for your date?
- Is one model preferred for towing a tube or board?
- Does your group need room for three people, or would one person prefer to ride alone?
Three-person capacity is handy for a parent and two children, or for a small group sharing the cost. Keep in mind that three people on one machine leaves less room to move around than a solo ride. The rental is best viewed as a shared family activity, not a fleet of private jet skis for every person in the group.
What happens at the Hurricane meeting point

You start at 55 N 3700 W, Hurricane, Utah 84737, and return to the same meeting point at the end. Confirmation arrives when you book, which gives you a fixed place to plan around.
The staff provide life vests and instruction on operation and towing. That towing guidance is especially useful if you have never pulled a tube, kneeboarder, or wakeboard behind a jet ski. You should pay close attention to the safety briefing, since the quality of the outing depends on handling the machine and tow line properly.
The supplied comments describe the staff as helpful, accommodating, and easy to work with. They also praise the booking process as simple. Still, you should arrive ready to clarify the practical details that are not spelled out in the description, including fuel procedure, launch arrangements, and how the two reservoirs fit into your rental period.
Life vests are included. You should confirm sizing for every person in your group before leaving the start point, especially when children are riding.
A flexible sunup-to-sundown schedule

The operator runs from sunup to sundown and says you can start whenever you prefer. This is one of the better features for planning a day around southern Utah sightseeing, a hot afternoon, or a family schedule.
An early start may suit you if you want cooler conditions and more time afterward for other activities. A later session can work well if you are using the rental as an afternoon break. The description does not promise a particular time slot, so confirm availability for your preferred start.
At three hours, the rental is long enough to feel like a proper lake outing without taking over an entire day. It is also short enough that you should decide your priorities before launching. If your group wants to ride, swim, visit both reservoirs, and tow a board, you may need to keep moving.
I would agree on a simple plan before setting out:
- Choose the first reservoir.
- Decide how much time you want for riding and swimming.
- Allow time for any transfer between the two reservoirs.
- Save a portion of the rental for towing if you have paid for water toys.
The flexibility gives you control, but it also puts the clock in your hands.

Adding tubes, kneeboards, and wakeboards

The jet skis can tow optional water toys, including tubing, kneeboarding, and wakeboarding. These are not included in the quoted price, so you need to add them separately if you want a more active session.
Tubing is the simplest choice for a mixed-age family. It lets children enjoy the water without requiring the balance and technique needed for kneeboarding or wakeboarding. Kneeboarding sits between the two: it offers more control than a tube but is still approachable for someone who is not ready to stand on a board.
Wakeboarding is the most skill-dependent option. If your group includes experienced riders, it can make the rental feel more like a full watersports session. If everyone is new, tubing may provide more time on the water with less frustration.
The available information does not give prices for the toys, so ask for the full cost before committing. You should also ask which toys are available on your date and how the rental handles towing instruction. Staff guidance was specifically appreciated for towing, so take advantage of it.
The real cost of a $995 group rental
The listed price is $995 per group of up to three, not per person. That changes the calculation. If three people share the rental, the basic cost works out to about $332 per person before fuel, water toys, or optional insurance.
That can be reasonable for a small family that plans to use the machine for the full three hours. It is less appealing for two people, and poor value for a single rider unless you place a high value on privacy and flexibility.
The price includes taxes and life vests. Fuel is extra, and optional rental insurance is also not included. Water toys cost more. Your final bill can therefore be noticeably higher than the headline price.
I would compare the price with how your group actually spends its time. If you plan to ride continuously, visit both reservoirs, and tow a tube or board, the cost may make sense as the main event of the day. If you mainly want a short ride and a swim, a three-hour group rental at this price may be more than you need.
The newer machines are part of the value. The supplied customer comments repeatedly praise the condition of the Sea-Doo and Yamaha rentals and say they had no issues with the machines. That does not remove the extra costs, but reliable equipment is important when your outing depends on one rented vehicle.
Sand Hollow for beaches and family play

Sand Hollow is likely to be the stronger choice for families that want to mix riding with swimming and beach time. The setting includes sandy beaches, and the water is described as a good place for family recreation.
You can use the jet ski as a way to reach different parts of the reservoir, then pause for swimming or shore-based play. That gives children a change from sitting on the machine and makes the three-hour rental feel less repetitive.
The sandy shoreline is also useful for groups that do not want every minute to involve speed or towing. One adult can supervise a swim break while another handles the machine, though the exact rules and shoreline access should be confirmed at the start.
The drawback is that Sand Hollow may be busy during popular periods, but the supplied information does not provide crowd levels or operating restrictions. Do not assume you will have every beach or stretch of water to yourself.
Quail Creek for a change of scenery

Quail Creek Reservoir is included as part of the broader adventure, giving you a second place to explore near St. George. The description does not list specific beaches, viewpoints, or route highlights there, so you should treat it as a second reservoir option rather than a guaranteed sightseeing stop.
That lack of detail is worth noting. This is a water-rental experience, not a guided tour with a set list of landmarks. The pleasure comes from being on the lake, choosing your own pace, and making the most of the machine.
Ask at pickup how the reservoirs connect to the rental plan. Since the experience begins and ends in Hurricane and lasts about three hours, the practical time spent moving between launch areas could affect how much riding time you have.
Who will enjoy this most
I would recommend this outing to a family or small group that wants an active lake day and is comfortable sharing one machine. It is particularly suited to people who like having choices: ride, swim, tow a tube, try a kneeboard, or move between two reservoirs.
It also suits a group that values newer equipment and direct staff instruction. The staff have been praised for explaining operation and towing, and that is useful for first-time renters.
I would think twice if you want a guided sightseeing tour, a low-cost activity, or a fully inclusive price. Fuel, insurance, and water toys are separate, and the base price is high for fewer than three people.
Service animals are allowed, and most people can participate. The description does not provide detailed age, boating-license, or watercraft qualification rules, so ask about those before booking if they apply to anyone in your group.
You can cancel for a full refund up to 24 hours before the start time. Cancellations or changes made within 24 hours are not accepted for a refund.
Should you book the Sand Hollow jet ski adventure?
Book it if you have three people ready to share the cost, want a flexible three-hour outing, and plan to make the jet ski the centerpiece of your day. The strongest reasons are the newer Sea-Doo and Yamaha machines, the choice of two reservoirs, helpful operating instruction, and the option to add family-friendly towing activities.
Skip it if you are watching your budget or only want a quick ride. Once fuel, insurance, and water toys are added, the total can climb quickly. For the right small group, though, this is a lively way to spend time on southern Utah water, with enough freedom to build the day around your own pace.
