My wife and I have rented boats from Boundary Waters for several years and the experience is always top notch. After another lovely weekend I felt compelled to finally write a long overdue review. The marina has a fantastic selection of boats and the price is very reasonable. My best piece of advice is to arrive extra early for check-in to beat the crowd, safety is a priority and every rental starts with a safety briefing and overview of the lake. The staff go out of their way to be helpful and I have always been impressed with the professionalism.

My family and myself rented a pontoon using the multi-day option at Boundary Waters. The boat was in exceptional shape and everyone at the marina was very professional and knowledgable. We had so much fun on the lake and the kids loved the double tubes we rented with the boat. I would highly recommend this marina. It is one of the nicest I have ever seen.

We rented jet skis, a deck boat and a wake board boat over a week at our rental location. All equipment was in excellent condition. Boundary Waters Marina inside staff were so sweet and knowledgeable about the costs and boat rentals. They greeted us with warm smile each time we came back.
The outside dock staff were helpful and friendly. We rented our jet skis while Matt was there and he was so friendly and told us the places to go on the lake. When we rented the wake board boat, Kevin walked us through the digital dashboard as well as the precautions of the boat. There was a lot to know and learn and Kevin was very patient with us. We even had to make a couple phone calls out on the lake and he was helpful and encouraging each time. We plan to go to Lake Chatuge next year and would go back to Boundary Waters.
Highly recommend Boundary Waters!!!!!!

My family and myself rented a pontoon boat for 8 hours. The boat was like brand new the folks that run the marina and the boat rental r awesomely friendly. Everything about our experience was five stars. We had so much fun it was very very reasonably priced everything was top-notch. I highly highly recommend if you're in a market to rent a boat or canoe a kayak a wakeboard whatever this is definitely the place to go

The Boundary Waters staff was great during checking process and explaining the operation of the boat and ensuring it was cleaned between rentals (COVID precautions). I went the day before rental to take the test to shorten the check in time. There was a little bit of backlog getting all groups onto the boats and would be helpful to have a number system so all groups know what order they are "in line" since a couple of groups were not considerate. The staff however, seemed to notice and made an effort to ensure all were loaded up in order of arrival time.

6th straight year of renting a boat from these fantastic folks. Everyone here goes out of their way to make sure you have a great time. If you are looking for a way to get out on this beautiful lake I would definitely recommend Boundary Waters. You won't be disappointed.

Was able to rent a pontoon boat on short notice on Labor Day and couldn't have been happier. The online reservation system worked flawlessly at 7pm and I received electronic confirmation of the rental by 7am the next day. The rental process was smooth and very well explained by a staff member. Another staff member explained the operation of the boat to me and both took the time to walk me through a map of Lake Chatuge. The boat was clean, full of fuel and performed perfectly with no issues. When I returned, staff was waiting on the dock to help with landing and off-loading. One minor request - it'd be nice to have an option of a navigation system to make it easier to know where we were on the lake.

Rented a tandem kayak from boundary. Their kayaks no longer have covers for the dry storage holes. (Management has since replaced the kayaks so others won’t have this experience!) The first time a powerboat passed us a little closely and a little water sloshed over the kayak, the hole filled with water and we began to sink. The hull was so full of water we could no longer manage the boat and it continued to fill with every little wave. Eventually we sank. Nearly drowned. Managed to make it near the shore to where we could stand and dump the water out of the hull, made it back, eventually. When we explained the problem to the younger employees there was a lot of friendly tut-tutting but no real concern. However the owner went out of his way to follow up with us and refund our cost once he found out what had happened. He has assured us that the equipment has been replaced. And offered a gift certificate so we can try again and have a better experience. We appreciated the great business commitment. Looking forward to a better time on the lake on one of the new kayaks!

We spent a month in town and heard Boundary Waters was the best. From the start, they lived up to their reputation. Their staff was kind, courteous and thorough. Boats are clean, new and well maintained. They sanitize everything and are serious about their mask policy. After returning for the second trip, they recognized us and made sure we got in and out quickly...something that happened consistently for the next 5 trips out with our family, which we greatly appreciated with two little girls! The lake is large but not overwhelmingly so. Renting at Boundary Waters is a great way to spend quality family time. Huge thanks and shoutout to Keanu, Karen and Jen for all of your help!!

Our son has been to Lake Chatuge with friends several times and has been asking us to go as a family for years. We finally made the trip and rented a Malibu boat from Boundary Waters Marina that can be used for wake surfing, tubing, skiing, etc. The boat was in excellent (almost new) condition, the instruction on how to use the boat was thorough and understandable (this boat has a sophisticated computer system), and everything from check-in to check-out was easy, organized and friendly. We had such a great time, we are hoping to go back in a couple of weeks! We highly recommend Boundary Waters Marina!
