“Heath is the best captain and owner on Lake Norman.”

“He made our experience on the lake great. We learned a little history about the houses and the lesson on rope jumping into the lake. Captain Heath's boat includes a grill, which we enjoyed, so we can't wait to book again next summer!”

Every Review, Word for Word

Michelle's trip aboard the Double Decker

“Our family had an absolutely incredible experience! Captain James was outstanding. He was friendly, knowledgeable, patient, and made everyone feel comfortable from the start. The boys had an absolute blast tubing. The convenience of being picked up right at our Airbnb made the experience even better. Most importantly, this was one of those experiences where lifelong family memories were made. Those are priceless.”

Michelle

“Me and my friends loved James!! He cared for us like his own family, made sure we were safe at all times and had a blast! Make sure you mention if you are celebrating anything — they do decorate and you get a gift! Such caring people!! We will be back James!”

Dee

“Had an awesome time on Heath's boat for our friend's bachelorette party! Our captain, Jimmy, picked us up right from our dock and even stopped back by when we needed to grab more drinks from our cabin. We were able to explore different parts of the lake and try out tubing. We had a group of 7 and had plenty of room for us and our things.”

Riley's trip aboard the Double Decker
June 2026

“We rented a boat with Heath for my bachelorette weekend and had the absolute best time! The boat was awesome, spacious, and equipped with everything we needed for a great day on the lake. Heath was so much fun to have as our captain and made the entire experience easy and enjoyable. We also met up with another boat carrying my fiancé's bachelor party, and Heath was incredibly welcoming, helping everyone enjoy the day together. He even flew a drone and captured amazing photos of all of us in the water, which was such a fun bonus. Everything was perfect from start to finish.”
