We had a really pleasant experience with North Lake Tahoe Boat Rental with our guide Lidia, who…read morehelped us with the checkin, orientation, and safety training. The way it played out was that I reached out to several boat rental companies in the North Lake Tahoe area based on their Yelp profiles, and the friendliest response I got was from this team. Based purely on that, I picked up the phone and called them, and the person who spoke with me helped answer several questions in an extremely pleasant way. She also advised me that the weather was going to get better in a few days, which is why we chose not to go boating on Sunday, which was our preferred day, but instead picked Wednesday, which turned out to be exceptionally pleasant. She asked me to research the boats and pick our best option from the website. I shared a picture from the Yelp page with her through text, based on which she guided me toward their premium boat, which had the bimini top that we needed. The check-in process was extremely welcoming. It was all done over my mobile phone. The insurance packages were also surprisingly affordable. We picked the intermediate option, which was, I believe, about $50. I could not stop staring at the water while we were checking in. It felt like we were in Miami. The water was turquoise-colored, and it was a perfect day in the low 70s. Our guide was Lidia. She and her entire team were exceptionally friendly. They did not rush us at all, even though I had my 79-year-old father with me. She, along with another staff member and me, helped my elderly parents onto the boat. I really wanted them to enjoy the ride instead of waiting outside for three and a half hours. I loved how Lidia helped me get comfortable with the boat while she was on board with us. She had me go full throttle and make an aggressive turn to show me just how safe and stable the boat was. I didn't go nearly that fast or make nearly as sharp a turn later, but it was good to know just how capable the boat was. I also loved how they take you out of the crowded marina area. Once you are in open water, they use their own rubber dinghy to get back to their office while we can enjoy the lake without having to worry about maneuvering around other boats near the docks. At one point, we accidentally got close to shore because we had not seen some large boulders on the way out. We were actually a bit lost and had gotten too close to shore in the wrong area. I was pleasantly surprised to receive a text from Lidia reminding us to be careful and stay away from shore, which was great to see. This meant that they keep an eye on the boat from their office. Cellular coverage was fantastic, and we were able to use Google Maps and stream music from every part of the lake, which felt great because, if we had any questions, we could just call Lidia. When we came back, Lidia found a spot that was even more accessible for my father, which helped him get off the boat much more easily. Overall, I could not have asked for anything better, and the entire experience was just perfect. We will 100% be returning to North Lake Tahoe and renting from NLTBR again as repeat customers.

Captain and crew were so accommodating taking out our group for an afternoon private charter. We were able to bring on lunch and drinks, which were spectacularly served to us in provided bowls and cups. Service was fantastic! The boat was spacious and comfortable, great for lounging or jumping into the lake. The crew at Blue Water Charter were attentive and made sure we were happy and comfortable. We were able to plug in our phone and play our own music which was such a plus! They also had floats for the water for us! Would definitely return and recommend for a great day on the lake!

They were definitely right, I never spilled my drink! I love that we were able to bring our own food and drinks because I am super picky about both but they had ice and everything we needed on board. The captain, Robbie, was so informative and knew a lot of about the properties and other features along the lake. I spent a lot of my time sitting on the upper deck with him learning about it all. We cruised up towards Incline Village to admire all the houses and coves from the water side. I have been here a lot but had never seen most of it from that side. There are some super cool houses along that route. The 'first mate,' Dana, was super sweet and helpful. She found us everything we needed but knew exactly when to give us space to enjoy. Wether sitting on the front of the boat on the large cushions, on the upper deck in the shade, or in the cabin, it was extremely comfortable. The nice thing about the front is the cushions are so giant multiple people can lay out in the sun, but worry not, when we got too hot we just moved inside or upstairs. I heard you can even book them for longer excursions and would love to take a custom full day trip down to Emerald Bay someday. A girl can dream!

It was exactly what I wanted and I couldn't have asked for more. Michael was in constant communication for weeks prior and made sure everything was taken care of! Michael recommended a photographer he worked with in the past (Amanda Kluesner Photography) and I'm so glad I went with his recommendation. They worked so well together and made our elopement experience a dream come true. The ceremony was amazing and so was the photoshoot. I would do it all over again and wouldn't change a thing. The boat is in pristine condition and truly a classic. I can't wait to come back on the boat and celebrate our anniversaries going forward. Wish I could give Michael 100 star review! Highly recommend! That boat is truly a classic beauty!

Wow!! I can't say enough about 'Lake Tahoe Classic Boats'. First of all...if it wasn't for…read moreMichael, I'm not sure we would be married LOL! I first saw this incredible vessel on a Lake Tahoe photography page. I was immediately drawn to this boat. I contacted Michael, and within just a few days we were headed out to Tahoe for our unique elopement. With the help of Michael and Kelly we found, not only an insanely heartfelt, talented photographer (www.AmandaKluesnerPhotography.com / amanda_kluesner_photography - Instagram), but the most thoughtful, kindest, fun and stress-free Tahoe wedding Officiant (www.mountainhighweddings.com / christadeane - Instagram), who then found us the most perfect, on-the-fly Florist (Kick Grass Flower Design / kickgrassflowerdesign - Instagram). We now refer to them all as the 'Dream Team'...as we have become friends and visit with them on our trips back to Tahoe now! We literally had zero vision of an elopement, other than it sounded like a good idea to get married in Tahoe. But when I saw this boat...I started to see it might be possible. Mike, Kelly, Christa, Amanda and Sandy certainly saw a much larger vision and created the perfect day. This boat needs no introduction. It speaks for itself. We could not have planned a more perfect day...all because of Michael and the 'Dream Team'! I cannot say enough about this whole situation. It was like hanging out with old friends...on the most beautiful boat on the lake! FYI...we just showed up...this team took care of absolutely EVERYTHING you see in these photos! Just do it!

Andy is an enthusiastic and patient coach as well as a thoughtful host. He was great with my special needs nephew who wanted to try, but was also very cautious. They also introduced us to Boca Reservoir which is only 30 min from Tahoe -but was actually closer to our rental home in Truckee. It's a GREAT place , especially to learn, warmer calm water and very uncrowded. We did one day on Tahoe and one day at Boca. Their boat is also pretty awesome. It's unique - a deck type boat -but also a world class surf boat. So lots of room and amenities for a large group. Also thoughtful are built-in heaters and warming ponchos for early mornings as well and brand new wetsuits. Plenty of healthy snacks and beverages come with your trip. Andy is a former Olympic Snowboarder and professional wakeboarder and seasoned captain - not much more you can ask for. They are probably priced at the high end of the scale for Tahoe, which can be pricey anyway - but it is a 5-star experience all the way and in my opinion, very worth it. They truly value your time and try to maximize your fun. I returned to Tahoe this August without the family and they were open to just a 90 minute surf / coaching session as it was just me and I did not have to book an entire 4 hours. They were able to fit me in before their longer charters started for the day, which many operators just would not do. It took me a while to remember all I learned the year before but with a little coaching , I was up in the wave again!

First, I will start off by saying the trail and tour itself is amazing. It was a nice long route…read morethat you go on, and you stop at a huge meadow where you can freely ride around on your own. The snowmobiles were new and clean, and definitely easy to ride for beginners. Plus, it was a gorgeous day when we went, which made our experience that much better. The reason why this place is down by four stars, is mainly due to the guides that we had. We had two guides named "G" and Lucas who DID NOT make us feel comfortable, and frankly, I felt their attitudes were way unprofessional. My boyfriend's snowmobile ended up being stuck in the snow, and as he is a beginner, he wasn't sure what to do and asked for help. When we called over "G" and Lucas, one of them had said that since it was my boyfriend's fault, and they "won't break their backs" to help him out of it. In the end, one of our friends had to come over and help lift the snowmobile out. But what ticked me off the most was at the end when "G" asked me how much tip I wanted to give him, and I gave him a number. Instead of BEING PROFESSIONAL like you're supposed to be, he straight up said that I was "insulting him" and that he would rather not take the tip at all. He also told me that it was because him and Lucas both split the tips 50/50 so my offer wasn't enough for each.....seriously!?! For his information, I DID NOT ask for two tour guides. The tour group that went before us only had one. For example, if you had 5 tour guides, are you going to ask me to pay 15% tip each for all 5 of you? Talk about ripping you off. And if he really wanted milk everyone for their money, instead of being rude and saying I "insulted" him, he could have been a bit more professional by saying something like "Is there anything I can do to improve my services?" Then maybe that way, I would have felt bad and given him more. Also, he should note that the definition of gratuity IS NOT OBLIGATION. It is a FAVOR that I am doing for you in exchange for your service. Unfortunately, your services weren't up to par, and therefore, I am not going to do you a favor by paying you 10%-15% (per PERSON, which is what he expected). I have worked in all kinds of industries myself (restaurant, bakery, smoothie shop) where gratuity is appreciated, but you don't see me being a bitch to people when they don't pay what you want. I understand the value of work when you provide service to someone, so I definitely do NOT skimp on gratuity unless I believe they don't deserve it. Most countries don't even have the word "tip" in their dictionary, so honestly I felt like he was taking a nice gesture for granted. I will end this rant by saying, I do recommend taking this snowmobiling tour, but just not worth it if you have "G" and Lucas as your guide. I am sorry I have to be so personal on yelp, but I just couldn't believe my ears when he said that to me - I have never heard that before in my life. I know places like New York will have people like that all the time, but seriously, show some appreciation that I had even OFFERED you something. If you were really offended that I didn't give you enough tip, there are ways to be professional about these things. Gratuity is just like respect, you need to earn it to receive it. I hope that their choices in having a distasteful attitude was worth losing a customer.
