It's a nice place. I took sailing lessons with my son here, and we rented a boat to take out and practice. It has been good for both purposes. The lake is small, so you can't go on any big voyages, but you can at least practice the basics.

There is not a marina in the area like Lake Fairview for boat rentals on a lake. We had our sailing certifications, but needed sailing hours to increase our experience and abilities. Cynthia and her team are fantastic! The prices are great, and they offer as much help as you need to get out on the lake. They got us the time we needed to graduate to larger boats, and get out to the ocean. Great team, love them! Would recommend in a heartbeat for sailing lessons and boat rentals.

Had an amazing time renting a sailboat!
-Super friendly and helpful
-Incredible prices
-Great selection of boats

And best of all—the lake is amazingly clear and clean! Very well cared for equipment and landscaping makes for a serene time.

For anybody living or visiting Orlando- come here and rent a boat!

Also, great selection of used boats for sale at reasonable prices.

While planning our trip to the Orlando area for the typical amusement parks, we ran across Lake Fairview Marina. Having previously owned a 22-foot Catalina I wanted to introduce my 13-year-old grandson to sailing. We decided to give Lake Fairview a try. I was rusty with rigging, having not sailed in a long time, but everyone was extremely helpful. Once out on the lake my wife and I quickly retrieved some of our skills, and as we grew more confident we began teaching our grandson. He took to it right away and soon was at the tiller. Our visit was a highlight of our trip! If you enjoy sailing at all, a four-hour sail on Lake Fairview is a must, and it's a perfect place to teach a new generation of sailors.

I visited the Lake Fairview Marina to inquire about sailing lessons and ended up buying a beautiful small little sailboat. They were super helpful during the whole transaction, Cynthia even helped me negotiate a small discount on the boat. I'm yet to go back to take my sailing lessons ;) but I have joyfully sailed my little sailboat plenty of times.

My husband and I took our first introductory sailing lesson. Our instructor was the absolute BEST! He knew how to make everyone smile and we all were so comfortable with him. He taught us a lot! We will be going back when it gets a little cooler to finish up the sailing lessons !!!

Awesome place. The crew was super helpful, they made renting their pontoon for a couple hours as easy as it possibly could be. We spent a great afternoon relaxing on the lake and drinking. Highly recommended!

We enjoyed our intro to sailing outing with Steve. The entire staff was helpful and friendly from the very first phone call through to the end. We were made to feel at ease and confident with our first experience with sailing. I highly recommend you take lessons here or just rent a boat, kayak, or paddle board. You can even rent and relax in the tiki hut for a those without their sealegs.
