Sunnyside Watersports — Pickup or Drop‑Off

Lakeside Stops and Valet Service
If you stop at lakeside restaurants you must use the venue's boat valet service; anchoring, beaching or tying up to docks and piers is not permitted.

Multi‑day rentals begin at 10 a.m. and must be returned by 10 a.m. on the final day; the first tank of fuel is included but customers must refill at their own expense if they consume more, and all multi‑day rentals must be returned with a full tank.

What the day feels like
What the Multi‑Day Rental Feels Like
A multi‑day rental turns Lake Tahoe from a day trip into a short cruise: mornings begin as the boat is launched or delivered and you set a course for coves and shoreline restaurants, with music, shade and full safety gear on board; each day can be tailored with tubing, wakeboarding or water skis and the boat returns at the agreed time on the final day.
