What makes it fun

Imagine cruising the lake in one of several vintage fiberglass boats that have been restored to their original mid-century design with retro cool colors, fins and chrome details. This enviable old-school style meets a fantastic eco-friendly update – it’s now electric! The zero emissions electric motors create an environmentally clean, quiet experience for even the novice boater.

Amazing time on the water with my friends. Staff was super friendly. Ethel (our boat) was super cute. Would definitely recommend & visit again.

We enjoyed a tour of Ladybird Lake and the Austin Skyline on a sunny day in early December in the lovely mint-green Edith.

Had an amazing experience! I spoke with Rachel. She helped me book the boat outing. Rachel and her team were amazing! She was very detailed and had great communication! We walked right up to the dock and they had everything ready to go! Great experience and would absolutely recommend this company to anyone coming to Austin! A++

Recently got engaged on a Retro Boat Rental and it was a great experience from start to finish. Booking was easy, rates were reasonable, and the customer service was great. When I told Nathan about my occasion, he immediately offered to help in anyway with my reservation. The boat was awesome and very easy to operate. The views are unbeatable. I would highly recommend to anyone who lives in or may be visiting Austin.

What a beautiful experience! Totally recommend the retro boat rentals, I booked it last year and was not able to go on that day and they refunded me as gift card for future use. I used it this year and this the reservation.Try to book in time otherwise they go out of the evening tours, we had to take the 2 to 3 30 slot , but it was a beautiful day and we enjoyed a lot! The boats are really cool and they also give you speakers which are great! We took some snacks and drinks to enjoy it on the boat. They also have umbrellas just in case if it rains . Everything was very smooth, we reached he just asked for the last name and they were ready! Totally recommend the this!

Had the most amazing memorable experience on this little boat. We didn't want to paddle or kayak considering it was over 100 degrees outside. We decided on a retro Boat. The prices were great as well. The staff was so nice and helpful considering we booked for the wrong day and they were accommodating and changed our date and got us out on the water. They even gave us an umbrella for shade and a speaker for no extra charge. Both items were very thoughtful. THANK YOU so much for the experience!!!! We will be back again.

Really fun way to get to enjoy the city & lake. It’s a bit expensive for 2, but the boats hold 4. The amount of time you have is just enough to do a lap of the eastern part of the lake and check out the Congress bridge. I don’t think you’re allowed to go either west because the lake gets really shallow. We had a great time and the staff was awesome.
