About Cayuga Lake Boat Rentals
Cayuga Lake Boat Rentals is a family-run business dedicated to sharing our lifetime knowledge and love of Cayuga Lake. We offer rentals on a wide range of boats, equipment, and supplies satisfying any lake day desires.
Our current fleet includes top of the line Bennington pontoon boats, Sylvan fishing boats, Chaparral deck boats, and more. In addition, we even provide the “little things” like fishing poles, tubes, water mats, coolers, and worms. Advice is free!
OUR LAKE
Cayuga Lake, the longest of the Finger Lakes, is known for its fishing. Our targeted fish include lake trout, rainbow trout, brown trout, salmon, northern pike, pickerel, bass, bullhead, and perch. Bluegills and sunfish are also abundant. Cayuga Lake is an annual stop of The Bassmaster Elite Series.
Closer to the water’s surface, you’ll find locals and visitors swimming, tubing, water skiing, or just relaxing during the summer months. We even offer sunset cruises. There is nothing like watching a sunset from the water!
PICK-UP & DROP-OFF/DELIVERY AVAILABLE TOO
Dean’s Cove Boat Launch (NYS Parks) the western shore of the lake, is one of our primary pick-up and drop-off location. There is plenty of parking, for a nominal fee, via their on-site kiosk. We also deliver right to your dock. Please call for more details.
Important: This is our launch site only. You will not find our offices here. Please call or book online to schedule your rental dates and times. We do accept same day rentals upon availability.
LONG POINT STATE PARK
This is a great spot to take a break and relax with friends and family. Complete with restrooms, a nice playground, and easily protected areas for boats to tie up, it’s a favorite destination on the lake.

Posted on Google Eric HorowitzTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The boat was great. The lake was great. The owners were great. It was a really nice experience.Posted on Google Jim HorvathTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Cayuga Boat rentals does a great job and delivers a good boat. We rented a 22' pontoon that comfortably sat 6 or 7 folks, but can take as many as 8 - 9. The 115hp engine is adequate, buy doesn't really rip you down the lake. Given Lake Cayuga is a big girl, if you want to go fast, you will been a 150hp at a minimum. If you are taking more than 6 adults, consider a boat equipped with a larger engine. Cayuga Boat Rentals delivered a boat with some miles on it, but it was clean and nice, and ran fine, as advertised. They deliver the boat right to your lake side dock, and pick it up, too. They will also equip you with some fishing rods to get some bass and smaller fish. If the boat were a little bit newer, and the engine were a bit more of a beast rather than more like tame, I would have rated a 5. All in, a good experience, and the price was in line with other rental places.Posted on Google Peter SlywkaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Awesome Experience! We rented a “deck” boat that was spacious and comfortable like a pontoon but maneuvered like a sports car. It came with a tube and my kids, nephews and friends’ kids loved every second of it. Pick up was seamless and Seth gave us a great overview of where to go, what to keep an eye on mechanically and easy directions for having fun. We were in and out of Long Point Park a couple times, changed crew a couple times and spent an entire day in the boat during our vacation. At one point Melissa reached out giving us a heads up that some scattered showers might be coming so we sought clearer skies. We jumped in the lake, tubed and soaked up the sun. Returning it was just as easy as pickup. 10 out of 10 would recommend and definitely will do again. Thank you!Posted on Google Stefanie DugganTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We rented a boat from Cayuga Lake Boat Rentals for a few days during our vacation to visit family in the area. Those boat days were by far our families favorite days! Seth and Melissa were wonderful to work with. Friendly, extremely knowledgeable about the lake - where to go to eat or where waters were calmer. Great communication leading up to our reservation and during the week. Highly recommend!Posted on Google James RandallTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very nice rental boat. Service was excellent and couldnt ask for any better. Comfy boat to cruise around in for the day. 100% will rent from again. (Only issue was the darn wind at times and cloudy all day but that's NYS for ya) Thank-you so muchPosted on Google brandonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Rental had plenty of room for the 8 of us. Very clean and easy to operate. Pickup and drop-off was very easy. Price was cheaper to rent that at our NH lake. Thanks for allowing us a great family day on the lake.Posted on Google Elise Diamond KnottTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
