2022 21ft Princecraft Vectra Pontoon for Rent on Mtn Island Lake!
Rented this out for my mom’s birthday and Richard was great and kind! He let us know the ins and outs of the boat, where to locate the safety equipment, and even supplied trash bags! There’s a Bluetooth speaker on this boat that works really well. I’d recommend this any small group.

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.
