Reviews for Double Decker Pontoon Boat Charter on Lake Tahoe

We had an amazing experience! Tom was a great captain and guide. Definitely book a boat trip.

The driver of the boat, Tom, was very kind and interesting, and a pleasure to have onboard.

Great experience with Tom and the Battle Born Boat Rentals! The boat was clean and comfortable, and Tom’s knowledge of Lake Tahoe and the surrounding areas was extensive and informative. The boat was able to comfortably accommodate our family group of 9 (ranging from 4 to 80). Tom took us around and showed very interesting historical parts of Lake Tahoe including the Valhalla Boathouse, Emerald Bay and the Vikingsholm (we were able to hop out and look around the castle). Very enjoyable experience. Would highly recommend!

Tom was an amazing captain. He did such a great job of showing us all the great spots and was very respectful and kind.

Captain Tom was amazing! Our family had such a wonderful Lake Tahoe experience and even learned about some secret spots for our next adventure. Appreciate everything Captain Tom! Thank You

Captain Tom was fabulous! We had such a great day on the lake and Tom made sure we had everything we needed. The slide was so much fun, our party highly recommends!

An absolutely incredible experience that I got to share with my life long friends.

Amazing time , very nice polite , had a wonderful time

We had a wonderful day on the boat. Chris was a great Captain and guide. He knew the lake very well and took us to a peaceful cove to enjoy the lake and a tour of Emerald bay. The boat was perfect for our group - the kids enjoyed the slide and lake toys. Thanks for a memorable day!

We recently rented a double decker charter with a slide in south lake Tahoe, and the experience was nothing short of amazing! The charter was in excellent condition, spacious, and perfect for our group. The highlight was definitely the slide—it added an extra layer of fun to our day on the lake. Both kids and adults had a blast sliding into the crystal-clear waters of Lake Tahoe. What made the trip even more special was our incredible captain. He was knowledgeable, friendly, and made sure we had the best experience possible. He took us to Emerald Bay, which was absolutely stunning. The captain’s insights into the area and his expert navigation made the journey smooth and enjoyable. The rental process was seamless, with the staff being professional and attentive. They ensured we were comfortable with the boat’s features, including the slide, before setting off. Lake Tahoe’s beauty is unparalleled, and this boat rental, complete with a slide and a fantastic captain, made for an unforgettable day on the water. We couldn’t have asked for a better way to explore the lake. Highly recommend this experience to anyone looking to elevate their Tahoe adventure!

We were a family group who rented a pontoon boat Double decker with a slide! Oldest in their 60’s and youngest 19 years old. We had an absolute blast with captain Jonny. He was the perfect captain for our group. We went to Rubicon Bay on a perfect August day. The beauty of Tahoe and the security of having someone in charge who knew the lake and knew the boat is priceless. Everything was wonderful from start to finish. Cruising into Emerald Bay at the end of the trip was perfect to end the day.

An Amazing Day on Lake Tahoe with Battle Born and Captain Steve! We got to see the highlights of Emerald Bay by Boat with first class treatment. Drop off right at the dock and the island for a hike to the tea house. Then a beautiful boat ride to see a waterfall, an epic rock jump from 30 ft and then the perfect cove to use the slide, paddle board and lily pad. Could not have asked for a better family day!

We had the best time renting the double decker pontoon boat for a celebration. Captain Paul was amazing. He took us to beautiful parts of the lake including Emerald Bay and Rubicon. The water slide was a blast. We also had a paddle board and lily pad on the boat that we could use when anchored - we made great use of both! I tell everyone its a must do in lake Tahoe. It was definitely a highlight of our trip.

AMAZING experience! Our captain Chris was extremely nice and took us to the very special private places that Lake Tahoe has to offer. It was the highlight of our trip. Forever grateful for the owner of the company that allowed us to reschedule our boat ride last minute due to a bike accident that my son had. Thank you Ross 🙏🏻 Book your ride! Don’t think twice!!!

We had an amazing time with Battle Born Rentals! We were a larger group of 11 guys for a bachelor party and could not have asked for a better boat experience on Lake Tahoe. At first, booking the boat with Ross was so seamless and easy. He was also very helpful in providing important information and quite responsive. Then the day of the boat itself we had a wonderful experience with Captain Steve. He was informative, fun, and made us feel very comfortable and safe the entire time. The boat was also a brand new pontoon, which had only been delivered three months prior. Steve also insured at our boat head priority access to all the best spots on the lake. Our four hours flew by. I highly recommend Battle Born rentals for anyone coming to Tahoe in a big group looking for a fun day out on the lake.

Rented a pontoon boat with a slide from Battle Born boat rentals. The owner Ross was really nice and gave us a bunch of information about arriving, where to meet, parking and what to expect was very helpful. We had the rental for 4 hours and had Captain Steve at the helm. Capt. Steve was very friendly, experienced and made us feel comfortable with him navigating the boat. He knew the lake very well and took us to some spots that made it fun for the whole crew. We had a total of 11 people with some kids on board. Once we were at our requested spot at Emerald Bay, he pulled out the paddle board, floating lily pad and turned on the water for the slide. I think the kids enjoyed the gigantic lily pad the most. The teens liked everything and had a chance to try out a paddle board. It is harder than you think. The water was freezing, but very clean. The best way to get in the water was to just take the plunge with the slide. Capt. Steve also took us to a little spot where we could jump off some boulders into the water. A little scary, but at the same time so thrilling and fun. I totally recommend Battle Born boat rental if you visit Lake Tahoe and want to get on the lake. The kids already want to do it all again. Thank you to Ross and Capt. Steve for unforgettable memories.

We had a group of 10 for a 2-hour sunset cruise and had an absolute blast. Captain Jonny took good care of us! Great communication leading up to and including the boat ride. We wouldn't hesitate to rent again from Battle Born.

We had a great time with captain Dylan during our groups private charter! The water slide and lily pad were put to good use, and Dylan told us some interesting folklore about the lake throughout our trip. We had a relaxing time chasing the sunlight on a mostly overcast day, but he did a great job finding us the good spots. The boat was perfect for our group of 6 with plenty of in-sun and in the shade seating.

We booked a 4-hour pontoon with slide rental for our group of 10 gals and it was a great time. Four hours was the perfect amount of time out on the water, the weather (over Labor Day weekend) was perfect, not too busy, and we anchored in a beautiful part of the lake to relax, swim, and go off the slide. Our captain, Dylan, was professional, easy-going, had plenty of fun facts to share about the lake, and made sure we had a great time! Would 100% recommend for a group outing. It’s a great way to enjoy the lake.

We had an amazing experience with Battle Born Boat Rentals! Captain Steve was extremely friendly and gave us a beautiful tour around Emerald Bay. He texted in advance to make sure we brought warmer clothes and made sure we were safe and comfortable the whole trip. We were a group of 7 girls for a Bachelorette and we had so much fun. The boat was spacious, comfortable and clean. We played our music on the bluetooth and enjoyed the beautiful sites. Would absolutely book this over and over again!

Had the best time and experience on the boat. The pontoon with a slide was clean, modern and comfortable for our group of 11 adults. Captain Daniel first explained thoroughly safety features and his many years of experience. He was professional and friendly. We will definitely refer Battle Born Boat Rentals to our family and friends!

Thank you to Ross and Tim! You all did amazing. We went into the pontoon boat for my Sisters Batch! We had a blast! Thank you for putting up with our loud butts! Everyone had a blast and the Bride to be had the best experience!

Been coming to Tahoe for years, and every year we rent a boat with a captain. Highly recommended as it’s hands free fun! By far the absolute best of the best is Battle Born Boats. Super clean and comfortable boats, well priced, amazing customer service. And the best of the best captains is Steve. Request him. And if you’re lucky, you’ll get him!!! He’s awesome. Kind and courteous, and as a local, he’s beyond knowledgeable about the lake (and Tahoe in general). I cannot say enough about this operation. Better than the best. Posted for Chad Dewitt and Crew!!!
