Neely Henry Lake Boat and Jet Ski Rentals

Neely Henry Lake is an 11,000-acre Alabama Power lake on the Coosa River, stretching about 77 miles through Gadsden and Etowah, Calhoun and St. Clair counties in northeast Alabama. Long river stretches, sloughs and Gadsden’s riverfront make it a great boating lake between Birmingham and Chattanooga. Invert Sports offers Neely Henry Lake boat rentals, jet ski rentals, water toys and private boat charters, ready and waiting at the lake.

Neely Henry Lake Boat Rentals

Neely Henry Lake’s long river stretches are great for tubing, skiing and cruising, and calm sloughs are perfect for wakesurfing. Our Neely Henry Lake boat rentals include:

Rather have someone else drive? Book a private boat charter and our captain will handle the boat. Damage waiver coverage is available on every rental.

Neely Henry Lake Jet Ski Rentals

Jet skiing on Neely Henry Lake means miles of open river, wide sloughs and quiet backwaters. Most of our jet ski rentals can pull a tube, depending on the model, and guided rides are available. See our jet ski models to pick your ride.

Pontoons, Marinas and Boat Service

Marinas and riverfront restaurants around Gadsden make it easy to stop for fuel and food. We don't rent pontoons or service boats, but we offer surf boats, jet skis and water toys to go with your pontoon day or lake house stay.

Gadsden’s Riverfront

The Coosa River winds right through Gadsden, with riverfront parks and restaurants and Noccalula Falls nearby. Downstream the lake widens out toward Ohatchee and Neely Henry Dam.

Fishing Neely Henry Lake

Neely Henry Lake has good fishing for spotted bass, largemouth bass, crappie and catfish.

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.
• Book early: summer weekends and holidays fill up fast.
