Check-out/Rental Equipment

Equipment Rental Price Guide
Looking to get out on the lake but not sure if you want to spend your hard-earned dollars on purchasing a boat, upkeep, and storage. You should try before you buy by taking out one of our boats. We carry pontoon boats, bass boats, jon boats, canoes, and kayaks of all shapes and sizes. Anyone renting a large boat must have proof of a boater education course of some type. If you do not have a boater card, you can take a U.S. Coast Guard-approved course online
(http://www.boatus.org/onlinecourse/default.htm?WT.mc_id=400082) to receive a certificate to meet this requirement.

We also have camping equipment to get you started. Come pick up one of our pull-behind campers or just rent one of our tents, stoves, or lanterns. Looking to tailgate or do a BBQ? Get one of our trailer grills, we can throw a rotisserie in if you want to have a pig pickin’. Then grab a canopy and some tables and chairs from us, so your guests can feel comfortable as they eat.
