Towing/Rescue:Towing due to mechanical issues are free of charge ONLY if the boat is within the main operating area AND not inside any NO-GO zones. If you are outside of main operating area or in any NO-GO zones, a tow/rescue fee will be accessed in the event of the boat becoming non-operational. Tow/rescue fees will be assessed to any boat that runs out of gas or sustains any damages and becomes non-operational.

Fuel: The watercraft will be supplied with a full tank of gas. At the end of the reservation we will refuel the watercraft and the amount will be applied to the reservation. The renter is responsible for all fuel used.

Inspection: Lakeview Cottages & Marina, to the best of its knowledge, the watercraft is in good working condition. The renter is encouraged to inspect the watercraft before it leaves the marina. The renter must notify management before the watercraft leaves the marina to avoid being held liable for damages.

Boating Equipment: Lakeview will provide personal floatation devices for standard adult sizes, fire extinguishers, throwable floatation device, and all other equipment pursuant to laws and regulations by the state of Kentucky.

Children Life Jackets: Any guest age 12 and under must wear a life jacket at all times while on the boat or in the water in pursuant to KY and TN state law. We have a limited supply of floatation devices for children due to proper fitment. It is recommended to purchase properly fitting life jackets for children before the reservation. Refunds will not be given and the watercraft will not be allowed to leave unless all children have a properly fitted floatation device. Child safety is our number 1 concern. It is HIGHLY recommended that anyone swimming wears a life jacket.

Damages to Equipment: Renter understands and acknowledges that the all equipment is to returned in a clean, undamaged condition, in the same condition as existing at the start date and time of the rental period. If said equipment is not returned in suitable condition and/or has sustained any damages to any component of the watercraft or equipment the damages will be charged to the card on file.

Cleaning: Renter agrees that the watercraft will be returned at the end date and time of the rental period, with all trash bagged and boat returned in clean condition. Normal boating messes like sand or a little mud don't count towards this unless it it excessive. If our daily hose rinse can't clean it easily then its considered excessive. Chocolate, cheesy chips (cheetos, doritos), and kool-aid are highly discouraged and normally result in cleaning fees. This list is not all inclusive. If it can make a mess at home, it will be worse on the boat. Cleaning fees start at $50.00.
