Nothing but good experiences here. One of their gas stations are open 24/7 which is awesome. They have a jet ski ramp and double pumps for people to use. They also have a pump where they will do all the work for you. For where we love, it has a great location. I’d absolutely recommend them to anyone in the area. Overall great place!

I had a few bad experiences with this place. They have no cameras where they need them. My boat was damaged somehow while at the marina. I have a slip right in front of skogies and I had my boat detailed and they needed to pull my boat out of the water to clean the bottom. I heard a couple different stories about who pulled the boat out and they said there was nothing overhead that it could hit. I know I didnt do it and it wasnt like that before. It happened there and no one knows anything. Also, I had a guy plug into my power 2 times. It wasnt the marinas fault. They rented a open slip next to me and the people didnt know I guess. The damage to my boat and no cameras to see what happened is the worst part. They need cameras on the docks.

Just wanna throw a BIG high five to all of the guys at Gainesville Marina! From the Boat Sales all the way through finance and on to boat service. This group of highly trained and highly motivated individuals pride themselves on customer service and satisfaction. I recommend them to anyone interested in purchasing a boat or needing service/maintenance on an existing one. Keep up the good work!Heidi and Will Harrison

I would like to take this opportunity to express our gratitude for the service we received during the purchase process of our first boat.Ill make this short, yet thoughtful. Joe Moore made our experience pleasant and smooth. I have worked training and managing multiple accounts and meeting dozens of people with different backgrounds and personalities. I immediately knew Joe was there to help our family acquire our first boat.He took the time to answer all of our questions in person, over the phone or email making sure we understood the ABCS of the entire process. Joe made all the suggestions I have already heard from friends and family members in regards to which boat was best for us. We value his honesty and patience with us and we have no regrets of making the decision to buy our first boat from Gainesville Marina.He immediately identified our needs, and put our family first to meet our needs. This led to us also signing our dock lease with Gainesville Marina. Last, but not least, Pamelas enthusiasm and warm welcoming made us feel even better that we did make the right decision. We have talk to other members of your staff, including Rich who did the orientation and was very professional and thorough with the information he provided us with.

July 4th fireworks just keep getting better and better with each year. Phillip you really out did yourself this year. I can say in all my years of watching fireworks (and thats quite a few), yours by far have always been the best. They are consistent without stopping, they are big and absolutly beautiful. Thank you so much for all your hard work. It was a great night.

Wonderful place. Good people to deal with. The security is friendly and tough. We always feel safe and secure here. The amenities are excellent and WiFi is included. The place is beautiful from sunrise to sunset . And if you want to come to church outside lakeside you can join the congregation every Sunday for a upclose personal experience in nature with God!!!

The leasing center agent was very polite and as helpful as she could be given the situation that there were no slips available for a boat my size.

Customer service here is absolutely superb! Not only a great experience when I purchased my boat over a year ago, but the customer service that follows after. I cant say enough from the service dept. and the leasing dept. all fantastic. I am in a luxury retail business, my expectations are more elevated than most, and yet they continue to exceed my every need.

This is a great Marina for people who want to get away to the North End of Lake Lanier. If youre looking for a little more solitude, this is the place to be. Rates are reasonable compared to the south end of the lake. Boaters are very friendly here. Very quiet and relaxed. A good group of people to meet some new friends and hang out.

Review №37

Very pleasant experience with the folks at the rental office at Gainesville Marina. We got checked in and on the water very quickly. It helped that I disclosed my years of boating experience but it still took an organized crew to get us out on the water as quick as they did. The boat was new (which means they keep their equipment updated). Very happy with the service at Gainesville Marina!

Review №38

Bought a used boat, less than a year later needed 2300$ in repairs and not only that they were confused about when it was ready, they won’t clean it, won’t put gas in it. They charge you a fortune and won’t do the little service things. Take your money somewhere else

Review №39

This is not my marina but stopped in to get some gas for my jetski. I liked that the dock was much lower than where I usually get gas and it was no where near as busy as other marinas. They also have jetski ports but it is not so close to the pump. My jetski is a larger model and there wasnt much room to move around on the port. It was almost impossible for me to get the jetski off. It was very late in the afternoon and no one else was around to help.

Its refreshing in this day and age that some people still do what they say they are going to do. Kudos to Gainesville Marine and their entire team!

I have been a customer for 5 years now and have always been taken care of. My first day heading out I called to have the boat put in the water and left the house. I got a call a few minutes later letting me know the battery was dead. They were going to try and charge it but wanted to know if they should replace if bad. I authorized it an started to worry about the time it would take to fix. I pulled up 30 minutes after the call and the boat had a new battery and was warmed up for me. They tested the battery again in front of me to show me it truly was bad. The next 5 years has been the same. Not always prefect but more importantly they make it right when there is an issue. All around great crew, but if you havent met Brandon, take the time to get to know him. He really cares like an owner would and is a great guy.

The boat ramp st the marina is open to the public and open 24 hours. Theres also overnight security at the marina so its a pretty safe place to leave you truck and trailer overnight, the only downside really is the $4 ramp fee

I believe they don’t believe in selling there pontoon boats. I have try too buy a pontoon a few years ago and had the same issues again as I was in the market for another pontoon, as I find one at this place again. So with that being say I call to make my offer and ask a few more questions, as the salesman at I was put with was supposed to call me back after he find out the information, well needless to say he never call me back. So I call the salesman manager a day later and ask him why no one got back with me. He was very rude guy so after talking too him telling him what I offer he was oh yeah we can do that. So he ask me to fill out a credit application on online got that done call the guy back, he was oh yeah we have it we will be in touch with you so I figured since was Memorial Day weekend I would get a call back Tuesday ready too sell the pontoon too me well as they done me last time no one ever call me back and that’s been almost a week now! I can’t believe at they do people this way makes me sick to know at they do good people this way! I believe the sales manager needs to step up his game on his salesman and call people back! KEEP PONTOON I TAKE MY BUSINESS ELSE WHERE! WHAT A JOKE

Every bit as good as holiday Marina few miles north Gainsville Marina however the slip rental rates are significantly cheaper at the Gainesville Marina the only drawback here is there is far less security in the evening hours but if youre all right with that go with Gainsville Marina youll save money and it and and you wont find any significant differences with services or product offerings

We purchased an older pontoon, and live near Gainesville Marina. Not knowing how the pontoon had been cared for, I took it to Gainesville Marina in November, 2017 to let them perform a full inspection, and tell me everything that needed to be completed to keep us safe on the water. For $400 they performed a 100 hour maintenance, greased a steering cable and fixed the broken fuel gauge, which they told me would always read low because they didnt have a long enough arm for a more accurate reading. Unfortunately, after finally getting the pontoon on the water, I noticed the fuel gauge was not fixed at all. As such, I took it back to Gainesville Marina to have them make good on the money I paid to have this done. On the way over to the marina I noted the pontoon periodically lost power, and informed them of that when I dropped it off. They fixed the fuel gauge and told me they ran it for 15 minutes and it was working great. Two days later, on Mothers Day in the middle of Lake Lanier the pontoon completely stalled. I called a friend, and has us towed to the nearest boat launch. To Gainesville Marinas credit, they did meet me at the boat launch to trailer the pontoon and take it back for service. The next diagnosis was a cracked fuel line, since it was apparently old with dry rot. $400 later the pontoon was fixed. My question is why something such as a hose that can visibly be inspected for something like dry rot wasnt noticed as an issue in the two times I took the pontoon in for service, and told them the motor was losing power on the way to their shop. Ultimately, they did reduce the bill by $55 for my troubles as they thought that was fair, and noted they didnt charge me for the tow. My position is, had they done the job they were hired to do the first (and second) time around, we wouldnt have stalled our entire family in the middle of Lake Lanier on Mothers Day.
