Fun family time Jet Ski Rentals at Lake Norman, NC
Breyanna was very good with communicating instructions and prioritizing safety. She was also flexible with scheduling and wanted us to have the best experience by providing alternative times when weather proved unstable.

Pontoon Party Boat on Lake Norman
Karla was amazing - on time pick up, asked us what kind of experience we wanted and delivered it! She took a ton of pictures of us and shared them all with us at the end of the trip. She was great interacting with the kids and made sure they had an amazing time, too. We will definitely be booking with Karla again on future visits to Lake Norman.

Pontoon Party Boat on Lake Norman
Had a wonderful day on the lake, thanks to Karla. It was a perfect day. Karla is wonderful. From the booking all the way to the end of the trip. She’s accommodating, a great captain and knows the lake and its history very well. Her boat is kept immaculate. We spent the day out on the lake my kids had a blast being pulled on the inner tubes. She took us to some special areas around the lake that were so breathtaking, and a hidden little gem that the kids loved. Remember to ask her when you book your trip with her. It was a perfect day. I will definitely book again with Karla.
