Marina Rentals

Marina Rentals

Marina Rentals is the on-site rental outfit inside Bear Lake State Park's marina, about a mile north of Garden City on Highway 89. Because their boats, Sea-Doos, paddleboards and kayaks are already in the water, this is the fastest way to get out on Bear Lake without towing anything yourself.

What to expect

This location is built around convenience, you rent, walk down the dock, and go. The lineup covers motorized options like Sea-Doos and ski, wakeboard, and pontoon boats, plus non-motorized gear including stand-up paddleboards, kayaks, canoes, and water trampolines. They also rent street-legal UTV side-by-sides that you can drive right from the marina onto the surrounding roads and trails. On the practical side, there's a small store for boating and fishing supplies, an on-the-water fuel dock, and a quick-service grill, so you can genuinely spend the whole day at the marina without leaving.

Hours and pricing

Rental hours generally run 9am to 5pm in season (some equipment can go later depending on demand), and most day rentals are booked in 8-hour blocks. Pricing depends heavily on what you're renting, a Sea-Doo runs quite a bit less than an 18-passenger wake boat, so it's best to check current rates directly before you show up, especially for July and August when demand is highest. Bear Lake State Park itself charges a day-use entrance fee per vehicle if you're driving in just to use the marina.

Location and parking

The marina sits inside Bear Lake State Park, on the lake's west shore about 1 mile north of Garden City on US-89. There's a large lot at the marina, plus a 7-lane boat launch ramp if you're bringing your own boat instead of renting.

Local tips

Because everything here is already in the water, this is the best option if you want to be out on the lake within 15 minutes of arriving, rather than trailering a boat somewhere yourself. It also tends to be the busiest rental location on peak summer weekends, since it's the most visible and convenient stop, so calling ahead to reserve a boat or Sea-Doo for a specific time slot is worth doing in July and August.

FAQs

• Is Marina Rentals the same company as Bear Lake Funtime? They're both part of the same Bear Lake Fun network of rental locations around the lake, but Marina Rentals is the on-the-water location at the state park marina specifically.
• Do I need a state park pass to use Marina Rentals? Yes, since the marina is inside Bear Lake State Park, a day-use entrance fee applies per vehicle.
• Can I rent a UTV from the marina, not just watercraft? Yes, street-legal UTV side-by-sides are available and can be driven directly from the marina location.
