Lazy Daze Boat Rentals offers Lake Travis pontoon and sport boat rentals, based at Paradise Cove Marina, Austin, Texas — the same address (17141 Rocky Ridge Rd) as the extensive cluster of businesses researched throughout this session, and genuinely separate from “Lake Daze Boat Rentals & Lessons” (a Lake Austin wakesurf specialist), also researched this session, despite the similar name. Family owned and operated since 2021 by owner Kenny Schmidlin, who brings more than 20 years of experience boating Lake Travis, the business prides itself on listening closely to customers and tailoring each outing to their specific needs.
The fleet includes a Center Console (2021 Nautic Star, max 7 passengers, 90 HP Mercury outboard, rod holders, Bluetooth stereo, live well, and Bimini top — well suited to both fishing and leisure), along with pontoon and sport boats for a peaceful day of fishing, a lively outing with friends, or a romantic sunset cruise. A luxurious houseboat is also available for overnight stays, genuinely well suited to a romantic day or night on the water.
With hundreds of five-star reviews, guest testimonials repeatedly and warmly name Captain Kenny (and mate Joey) for going above and beyond — including personally rescuing a stranded group with his own speed boat, checking in continuously to make sure everyone was having fun, and sharing deep knowledge of the lake’s best spots. Reviewers consistently describe Kenny as affordable, communicative, and an exceptional host.
For families, couples, and groups near Austin, Texas looking for a highly reviewed, family-owned pontoon, sport boat, or houseboat rental on Lake Travis, Lazy Daze Boat Rentals offers a genuinely warm, personal operation with Captain Kenny Schmidlin.
