Wheeler Lake is Alabama’s second-largest lake, with about 67,000 acres of water on the Tennessee River between Guntersville and Rogersville, passing Decatur and south Huntsville. Wide open water, sandy points and miles of coves make it a favorite with North Alabama boaters. Invert Sports offers Wheeler Lake boat rentals, jet ski rentals, water toys and private boat charters, ready and waiting at the lake.

Wheeler Lake’s wide river channel is great for skiing, tubing and cruising, and calm mornings in the coves are perfect for wakesurfing. Our Wheeler 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.

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 for barges: Wheeler is part of the Tennessee River navigation channel, so give barges and towboats plenty of room.
- Book early: summer weekends and holidays fill up fast.
