A hose reel guide device including a base, a housing structure, a static shaft, a guide wheel, a tracker body, and a roller assembly. The base includes a static shaft mounted on a housing structure which is capable of pivoting on the base. The guide wheel is adapted to circumferentially engage a portion of the static shaft and also adapted to receive a hose. The guide wheel is configured to oscillate about the static shaft as the guide wheel translates from end to end on the static shaft, when a moving hose passes therethrough. The tracker body is mounted about the guide wheel to cooperatively move along the shaft with the guide wheel and includes a channel adapted to receive a portion of the hose. The roller assembly is positioned offset the axis of rotation of the guide wheel to maintain greater surface contact between the hose and the guide wheel so as to provide less opportunity for the hose to "jump"/skip/flail on the guide wheel and negligible drag on the hose.
