Buckeye Sports Center - Peninsula, Ohio

We were helped by a man with more than 40 years of experience who was so full of knowledge he was able to outfit my partner with everything based off a look and a brief conversation. Outside of no pink skis, they had everything you could want and more. I highly recommend the Buckeye Sports Center for all your winter weather sports needs.

I purchased a used boat from Buckeye Sports for around $18,000. Dan and Pete treated me with the same attention and care as if I were buying a $150,000 boat. They were incredibly helpful and genuine throughout the entire process, including the inspection. Even after I picked up the boat, Dan gladly answered additional questions I had and responded very quickly whenever I reached out. It was truly a pleasure working with their team, and I will definitely consider buying from them again. I highly recommend Buckeye Sports, especially Dan and Pete.

Andrew helped me find some great ski boots. He spent a long time letting me think about each pair. I live in NYC but it was great to come back to Ohio to buy ski boots!

First time visiting Buckeye Sports. I believe the ski shop is the former Sun Valley Ski shop that was in Akron, but now it’s inside Buckeye. I worked with Andrew to get fitted for boots and skis. He was awesome! He was professional, courteous and kind. Got a text from them today saying my skis were ready for PU - Andrew said it takes three days to get all the bindings and brakes on the skis ready. I got my text this morning saying they were ready. I’m so excited to see them! I would highly recommend this shop to anyone from beginner (me) to intermediate.

I've been back to this shop at least 4x this winter season. I've also bought skis and boots for my daughter as well. Marilyn is an amazing help at this store and she has helped me as well. Please give Marilyn a raise! Knowledgeable people are so hard to come by these days, combined with good customer service!

Best in class dealership. This was my second big purchase from Buckeye, and I'll continue keeping them first on my list for any future purchases. VIP Customer Service. They did an excellent job educating me about my new boat as this is my first boat after purchasing a Hobie Pro Angler from them years ago. They put a lot of time, attention, and detail into prepping my boat so it would be water ready. They worked with me to get all the features needed on the boat that met my needs. VIP Treatment with the boat pickup as they were flexible with scheduling, had a congratulations sign, everyone walking on the boat took their shoes off, they consistently offered drinks/restroom, their service guys came out to answer technical questions, and they highlighted critically important parts of the manual so I may quickly revisit for review as a lot of information was covered during pick up. They don't just want to sell you, but they want to make sure you are set up for success, you are safe, and you have an all around great experience on the water and with Buckeye. Customer oriented all around. Would recommend anyone give Buckeye the first stop before looking elsewhere.

I bought 2020 waverunner back in 20 from Buckeye Sports Center new. I drove from Pittsburgh super nice, helpful and called me the first 1yr. Asking if everything was good. I recommend them to anyone that is looking for boat. When the time comes I will be going back to buy from them.my buddy also bought the same one from you. Here’s a few pictures of it in the wild. Last picture is sunset on the Monongahela River.

Being “newbies” to boating, we had the pleasure of meeting and working with Alyssa Karns and Stacy Cline! They instilled a comfort-level and went above and beyond our expectations, from purchase to delivery and tutorials!

Had a lot of choices for all things- gloves, winter apparel etc. The staff was so helpful. Lyle was the very best. Listened to all my concerns and questions and truly helped me find the best product. Was not pushy. The only thing I would change is I think the snowboard boots should have their prices displayed.
