Lake Fairview Marina is Orlando’s friendliest marina for boating, sailing, and water sports, family-owned and woman-owned since 2003 by Orlando native Cynthia Johnson. Situated on 405-acre spring-fed Lake Fairview, just 10 minutes from downtown Orlando and minutes from Winter Park and College Park, the beautifully landscaped 6-acre property offers a genuine one-stop marina destination.
Pontoon Boat Rentals (2 hours to all day) suit celebrations, fishing, or lazy days on the water. Sailboat Rentals offer Com-Pac 16 and 23 vessels by the hour or full day for experienced sailors. Kayak, Canoe & Paddleboard Rentals let guests explore the calm, spring-fed waters at their own pace, including AquaCat paddle boats, available hourly or full-day. Sailing Lessons & ASA Certification give guests a comprehensive 15-hour course with ASA certified instructors. Windsurfing & Wing Foil Lessons are led by certified Aquavela instructors with more than 20 years of teaching experience — a genuinely distinctive offering among marinas researched this session.
Beyond rentals and lessons, the marina offers a one-of-a-kind waterfront Tiki Hut Gazebo venue for birthdays, baby showers, wedding rehearsals, corporate retreats, and celebrations, plus full marina services including 24/7-access boat storage, expert repair and maintenance, a well-stocked ship store, and quality boat sales (current inventory includes a 2017 Release 208RX, 2001 Tige 21I ski/wake boat, and 2016 Southwind 212SD deck boat).
Guest reviews are consistently glowing, with reviewers describing a wonderful pontoon birthday celebration (with staff member Cloud specifically praised), a memorable multi-birthday pontoon rental for a group visiting from the UK, and repeatedly friendly, welcoming service from the team.
For families, sailors, and boaters near Orlando looking for a genuinely comprehensive, family-owned marina — pontoon or sailboat rentals, kayaks, sailing or windsurfing lessons, or a waterfront event venue — Lake Fairview Marina offers a well-established, more than 20-year operation.
