Reserve your perfect boat today!
Closed Early for the Season
At Deep Creek Lake Boats, we believe there's no better way to experience the natural beauty of the area than from the water. However, due to unexpectedly low water levels this year, we are closing for the season earlier than anticipated. The lowered water levels expose hazards such as tree stumps and large rocks, which can cause costly damage to boat engines, propellers, and possibly endanger the safety of renters. Consequently, we will not be offering any boat rentals for the remainder of the season. We apologize for any inconvenience and look forward to welcoming you back for a fantastic boating season next summer.
