How to Book a Day on Lake Lure
We do all reservations by phone. One short call gets you the right boat, the right time, and answers to anything you want to know before you arrive.
Reservations Are by Phone
We are a family-owned operation, not a national chain with a 24/7 booking engine. Every reservation goes through our team so we can match you with the right boat or rental for the day and weather conditions.
When you call, have your date, group size, and what kind of day you want in mind, and we will handle the rest.
We are open daily from sun up to sun down, May through September, and by reservation the rest of the year. Outside the season, leave a voicemail or drop us an email and we will get back to you within a day.

Booking FAQ
Quick answers to the questions we hear most when people call to reserve.
Why don't you have online booking?
Lake conditions, weather, and group needs change daily. A quick phone call lets us make sure you are booking the right thing at the right time and saves the back-and-forth that online forms generate.
How far in advance should I book?
At least a week or two in advance, or as soon as you know your plans. Give us a call and we'll save your spot.
When do I pay?
For all rentals, we take payment at the end of your trip or reservation. We know plans change and weather happens, so we'd rather settle up after your day than deal with refunds.
What if the weather is bad?
Safety comes first. If you're worried about the weather, give us a call at (828) 625-8066 and a team member will check conditions with you. Conditions on the lake are often better than the forecast looks. We only accept weather cancellations on the day of your rental, because Lake Lure has fickle weather. If you get rained out, we only charge for the time you used. A chillier day or a few extra clouds don't count as a weather cancellation.
What if I need to cancel?
Call us at (828) 625-8066 at least 48 hours before your start time to change or cancel at no cost. Inside that window, we charge 50% of your reservation as a cancellation fee. There's nothing to refund, since we never take deposits or charge in advance.
