I have been coming down to the lake for 10+ years with my family. We have always rented a boat during our stay at the lake. We have rented from every place on the lake over the years and our experience with The Getaway Rentals was by far the best experience we have ever had. They made the reservation process extremely easy, answered any questions that we had, met us by our vehicles and offered us a ride down to the dock so we didn’t have to haul all of our things down several fights of stairs- (this service alone is worth renting from them.. no other place does this. They expect you to carry everything yourself.. no one has ever offered to help,) and when you are packing for 5+ People… you have a lot of stuff. They had lots of people staffed working the dock.. making sure everything was organized, telling renters where to go, and by the time we got to the dock- we were on the boat and going in 15 minutes or less. Unheard of!!!!! Usually you have a full hour or more of signing paperwork, going through the ins and outs/ dos and donts of renting and driving. We rented a 2022 pontoon for a full day, and our boat was spotless. Clean, ran really well, had everything we needed for a comfortable day on the lake. They were quick, friendly, efficient, and I’m SO glad we found them! We will not be renting from anywhere else in the future.

We were visiting from Florida and met family for a boating day out on Lake of the Ozarks. I rented a tritoon from Josh and he was very accommodating when we needed to change our reservation day because of forecasted weather. He changed our day and gave us an upgraded boat in the process.
He and his staff were very organized and helpful in making our boating day very stress-free and memorable .
Thanks to the crew at The Getaway Boat & Jet Ski Rentals!!

My wife and I were there aug 20-25. We rented a jetski twice and a pontoon boat. All the watercraft we used were in excellent condition and cheaper than other places we checked. Josh and his crew were professional, kind and helpful to make sure we had the best experience possible. Josh even did some extra things for us since we rented his house which were very kind, generous and totally unexpected. Would we rent from him again? Absolutely!!!!

On my 2nd visit I was forced to cancel my reservation upon checking in due to me knowing the other people renting wave runners. We all did not come together and the comment was made by the staff that “We were lucky was only charged $10 rather than the entire rental of $120. I went to another place on the lake for the same price. The policy needs reviewing because it is too general/broad and is not reasonable. I have no desire to hang with kids I know.

We rented 2 Jet Skis for an hour from The Getaway. The location was easy to find and the price was better than many places we found. The rental process was easy and we had a fantastic time. The location is no-frills (no lockers, no restrooms, etc) and you have to go down a lot of steps to get to the dock from the parking lot.
The Getaway is at the back of a no-wake cove. It takes about 10 minutes to idle out of the cove and 10 minutes back in which is a big chunk of your rental time if you are only renting for an hour so keep that in mind. Once we got out to the lake though, we had a great time.

Hands down the best place to rent from. The attention to detail including taking a photo of the prop and recording the condition of the boat prior to leaving are to insure you don’t get charged for unnecessary damage. The staff are fantastic in explaining everything and telling you where to go. Save your time and research and just rent from this place!

Great experience with Loto Boat rental… Randy was our driver and he was excellent! He had a great knowledge of the lake and it was cool to get its history. Would definitely recommend. We have a 5 year old, a 3 year old and a one year old and they had fun.

We rented a "tritoon" boat for a week and had a great experience. Although the initial communications were a bit curt and business-like, I appreciate that the same attitude is most likely to keep the rental boats in good working order. Ultimately, that is what I am paying for, and so I am satisfied that it is what I received. Notably, an animal or bird did a small bit of damage to the boat, and while we were charged for the damage we felt the charge was reasonable and appropriate. We would rent something from here again.

Great experience renting from The Getaway! The pontoon we rented was in great condition and pretty much brand new. Very comfortable. The staff was very friendly and helpful. They were even nice enough to give us a ride over to Backwater Jacks after we dropped the boat off.

Loved renting a pontoon boat and wave runners from The Getaway. It was the off-season so they weren't busy. Corey in their offices was very welcoming and professional and gave us great instructions. The pontoon seemed brand new. We will definitely be back!
