  2. Renting a pontoon boat from Sunnyside Marina was the highlight of our Lake Tahoe vacation! We were initially drawn to their rental options because of their well-maintained fleet and competitive prices, but what really impressed us was the level of service we received. The staff was not only knowledgeable but also genuinely passionate about ensuring we had a fantastic time on the water. We spent the day sunbathing, swimming, and even fishing from the comfort of our spacious pontoon. It was the perfect way to unwind and soak in the natural beauty of Lake Tahoe. We'll definitely be returning to Sunnyside Marina for our future boating adventures! Tahoe pontoon boat rentals
