FAQs Boat Rental in Muskoka

Matchless Adventures offers a variety of options to suit different preferences and activities. Boats for rent include pontoons, fishing boats, deck boats / bowriders, and personal watercraft (such as jet skis and Sea-Doo). Each type of boat serves a specific purpose, so consider your intended use and the number of passengers to choose the most suitable option.

Ontario requires you to have a license to operate the boat. For our rentals, we provide you with a temporary boating license included with the rental and provide a safety training and orientation session as well.

When you rent a boat with Matchless Adventures, a boat rental includes the watercraft itself, all of the required safety equipment such as life jackets (adults, kids, and infants), temporary boating license, and a 15 minute on the water lesson.

Booking a boat rental is a straightforward process. You can call our office at 705-710-1900 or go to our website and send us an inquiry through the BOOK NOW button in the top right-hand corner. We require a 25% deposit to confirm your booking for your date.

Please show up 30 minutes BEFORE your rental time to sign forms and run you through our 15 minute on the water lesson. If you show at the time your rental is supposed to start your time on the water will be cut short. We do have back-to-back reservation and we need time to clean and gas the boats between rentals. Please be aware of your travel time to get here so there is no rush and you are able to receive your full time on the lake!

We accept various payment methods, including credit cards, debit cards, and cash. We require a $2500 security hold on your credit card during your boat rental and return it when you bring the boat back undamaged.

We offer flexible rental periods to accommodate different needs. You can rent a boat for a few hours, a half-day, a full day, or even multiple days, depending on availability.

We provide the necessary safety equipment as part of the rental package. However, you are allowed to bring your own gear, such as fishing equipment or water toys, if desired.

Yes dogs are permitted as long as they don’t damage any of our boats. Any damage to our boats due to pets will be the responsibility of the customer.

Refunds (less a 10% cancellation fee) are available for cancellations made up to 30 days in advance of the reservation date. Cancellations with less than 30 days notice prior to the rental period are non-refundable. Deposits will be held for a future rental. No refund is given due to weather conditions (rain, high winds, etc.) at the time of or during a rental period. Matchless Adventures Inc cannot be held responsible for weather conditions or weather-related issues.

You are welcome to dock the boat at on-the water restaurants, but we do not recommend it for novice boaters. Docking a boat at other docks is a trick procedure and can cause damage to our boats. Any damaged caused to other boats or our boat as a result of docking improperly will be the responsibility of the customer.
