Glade Marina is considered the best marina on Lake Allatoona, part of the national Suntex Marinas network, based in Acworth, Georgia, about 30 miles north of Atlanta on the Etowah River. Lake Allatoona, managed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, spans more than 12,000 acres and 270 miles of shoreline when full, drawing millions of recreational visitors each year.

Boat Rentals include pontoons, Bayliners, paddleboards, and kayaks, well suited to a relaxing day on the water or a fun day in the sun. Yearly Slips and Dry Storage are also available, with slip amenities and a Certified Clean Marina designation. The Suntex Boat Club offers members regular access to the water without full ownership.

Guest reviews are consistently glowing, with reviewers describing a genuine “Lake Family” atmosphere among cabin owners and slip renters, praising staff members Jeff, Mark, Rose, and Bonnie by name, level docks that make loading easier than at other marinas, and a fun, well-staffed pontoon rental experience for a day trip.

For boaters near Acworth/Metro Atlanta looking for a pontoon, Bayliner, paddleboard, or kayak rental, slip storage, or boat club membership, Glade Marina offers a highly reviewed, full-service operation on Lake Allatoona.
