Testimonials

We thoroughly enjoyed our 4 hour cruise on our tritoon! Very nice folks working that were very helpful throughout the process. Marina is well kept and very clean. The store has all you'd need for the trip. I couldn't have asked for a better birthday celebration! Thank you!!

Amazing experience with amazing people! A group of 7 of us rented a tritoon boat for a full day, and it couldn’t have been better. The staff was extremely friendly, knowledgeable and awesome to work with, and the boat was clean, spacious and perfect! Beautiful lake for a summer day. We were planning our next trip before we even got off the boat. Can’t wait to come back!

We rent boats 6-7 times a year at various lakes and Dam Wat Pontoon Rental is by far our favorite place to go. We would not dream of going anywhere else at Carlyle. Their boats are beautiful, clean and well-maintained. There are several options of pontoons and tritoons. The family that runs the marina are very professional, at the same time personable, and it is obvious that they take pride in the condition of their rental boats and entire property. The gas and store prices seem reasonable. If you are even considering boating on Carlyle lake, take a few minutes to prepare yourself by taking the online safety class and printing the certificate. I believe it is required by law. This will get you on the water a lot faster.
