Lake Guntersville is Alabama’s largest lake, with about 69,000 acres of water stretching 75 miles along the Tennessee River from the Tennessee line to Guntersville. Wooded bluffs, wide open water and hundreds of coves make it one of the best boating lakes in the South. Invert Sports offers Lake Guntersville boat rentals, jet ski rentals, water toys and private boat charters, ready and waiting at the lake.

Good to Know Before You Go
- Alabama boating rules: Alabama requires a vessel license to drive any motorized boat or jet ski, and no one under 12 may drive one. Drivers 12 and 13 need a license and a licensed adult 21 or older on board, and visitors 14 and older from other states can boat up to 45 days a year without an Alabama license. Our rental drivers must be 18 or older.
- Life jackets: everyone on a jet ski and anyone being towed must wear a life jacket, and so should young children on a moving boat.
- Watch the depth: much of the lake is shallow outside the main river channel, so watch for stumps and grass beds and stay in marked channels when cruising.
- Book early: summer weekends and holidays fill up fast.
