Boat Rentals of Lake Wylie offers a fun, hassle-free pontoon boat rental experience, founded by Travis and Stephanie, a couple whose shared love of lake living turned into a growing business. Stephanie grew up boating on Long Island Sound before her family moved to Lake Murray, South Carolina, while Travis grew up on fishing trips to Canada and later spent his college years boating lakes throughout the Carolinas — together, their goal was always to live on the lake, and now they own and operate a full fleet.

Rentals are strictly by appointment only, booked ahead of time by phone or email — the business is not open to walk-ins, and the team is only onsite for scheduled departures and arrivals. Every rental includes the boat, fuel (half a tank, subject to final confirmation), and boating equipment like lines, fenders, an anchor, and adult life jackets, all wrapped into one simple flat rate. Renters need prior adequate boating experience to self-operate; a captained option is available for those without.

Rates run $500 for a weekday half day (Monday-Friday), $625 for a weekday full day, $750 for a Saturday or Sunday weekend rental, and $825 for holiday rentals. Pets, tubing, and towing are not permitted on any boat in the fleet, and hard liquor is prohibited on Lake Wylie by law (drivers may not drink at all). Guests are asked to bring boat-friendly food to avoid a cleaning fee for spills or residue.

Guest reviews are overwhelmingly glowing, with reviewers specifically describing Travis and Stephanie as wonderful hosts providing the best boat rental experience they’ve had, with a perfectly clean boat.

For visitors and locals on Lake Wylie looking for a personable, appointment-based pontoon rental, Boat Rentals of Lake Wylie offers a highly reviewed, owner-operated experience with Travis and Stephanie.
