Lake Fairview Marina is a full-service lakeside outfitter specializing in boat, kayak, paddleboard and venue rentals on Lake Fairview.
The marina provides a broad fleet that includes canoes, touring kayaks, electric tour kayaks, stand-up paddleboards, AquaCat pedal boats, pontoon boats (standard and upgraded), and Com-Pac sailboats in 16‑foot and 23‑foot models. Rentals are offered in flexible durations including three-hour and full-day options for many watercraft, and select pontoons run on a trolling motor that does not require a Boater’s Safety License. Each rental includes required safety equipment such as life jackets and paddles; staff provide orientation and basic safety instruction before departure. The marina also hosts waterside events at a rentable Tiki Hut for gatherings like showers, weddings, and corporate retreats, with local vendor recommendations available to help plan catering and services. Safety, accessibility, and easy booking are emphasized, with options suitable for solo adventurers, families, and groups. Lake Fairview Marina supports both leisurely outings and active exploration, from pedal-powered AquaCat relaxers to sailboat excursions that use main and jib sails. The fleet and services are tailored for varied experience levels: beginners can choose low-maintenance boats with motors or pedal power, while experienced sailors can book the Com-Pac models for a spirited sail. Clear policies, on-site staff assistance, and included safety gear help protect guests and create reliable, memorable lake experiences for visitors seeking recreation or special events. Online booking and clear pricing make reservations simple, and staff can recommend routes, fishing spots, and packing lists for every trip year-round.
