Boat Moorage and Launch
Splash into the summer by bringing your boat on your Banks Lake vacation. Whether you plan to tour the 27-mile expanse of sandy lakeshore via jet ski, watch the Fourth of July fireworks from a party barge, or spend an afternoon bass fishing with your kids, boat moorage at Sunbanks Resort is prepared to fit your needs.
Sunbanks Resort guests can enjoy the convenience of the boat launch located just north of the lodge and general store. The 50-slip docking facility is located just west of Juneau Bay and next door to the Beach Shack rental store. The boat launch is available to all guests and can accommodate ski boats, jet skis, wave runners, fishing boats, party barges, and other water vessels. Guests can make advance reservations to arrange their boat’s moorage during their stay. Moorage fees are $39 per night.
Rentals
Located right here in the beautiful Sunbanks Resort is ECI Boat Rentals, providing you with watercraft rentals. Among their rental fleet are ski boats, pontoon boats, and jet skis; as well as stand-up paddle boards. With 27 miles of lake to explore, any of these boat rental choices are a perfect fit to make sure your family enjoys the spectacular Banks Lake the right way.
Even if you were planning to bring your own boat to the resort, how much less of a hassle would it be to rent from them instead? You would have more room for yourselves and luggage, wouldn’t have to bring the “big rig” that consumes more fuel, and you wouldn’t have to mess with launching your boat and parking your trailer.
Whether you own your own boat or just want to give boating a try, let ECI Boat Rentals make your vacation a little more hassle-free as well as memorable. Call (509) 633-3786 ext. 3 to learn more.
