Northern Lakes Boat Co Offers the Best Pontoon Rentals in Northern Michigan

Have you ever rented a boat and felt embarrassed to be seen on it? Maybe you nervously wondered if it would even make it back to the dock. You notice the dents, the stains, the torn upholstery, and the sputtering engine… and then you ask yourself, “How much did we pay for this again?” Unfortunately, this is a common experience with boat rentals around Traverse City and Northern Michigan.

At Northern Lakes Boat Company, we believe your time on the water should be the highlight of your summer — not a letdown. Your rental day might be the only day you spend on the lake all year, and we’re here to make sure it’s an unforgettable one.

You deserve a clean, safe, comfortable boat that’s reliable, well-equipped, and professionally maintained. You should be confident in your boat's performance and safety features. When you rent from us, you'll also get a thorough, friendly orientation covering the boat’s operation, safety equipment, and area-specific boating tips — so you're ready to cruise with confidence.

Premium Rental Fleet – No Compromises

Our fleet features the highest-performing, luxury pontoon boats available today:

• Brand-new Aloha tritoons powered by 150hp Yamaha outboards

• 2024 Massimo Marine tritoons equipped with 150hp Mercury engines

These boats aren’t just sleek — they’re fast, fun, and perfect for cruising the Chain of Lakes from Elk Rapids to Bellaire, including the stunning Torch River and Grass River. We invest in new boats every season because we know your time on the water deserves nothing but the best.
