EMEvan McBroomMember · Tellico
★★★★★
“As members of Nautical Boat Club Nashville, we traveled to Tellico Lake because the clubs have reciprocal relationships with one another. … Dave and Dave (the club Crew) were ready for us, professional, friendly, and available if we had questions.”
MVMaddie Van FleetMember · Tellico★★★★★
“We are extremely busy with our schedules so having the luxury of being able to communicate and book online and have a boat ready for a ride on the lake is incredible and very convenient. A quiet few hours on the lake is exactly what we need sometimes.”
MDMichael DiPiazzaMember · Tellico★★★★★
“Every outing began with the boat in pristine shape, equipped as asked for, with staff at the ready who couldn't be more helpful. … What a fabulous way to enjoy all the benefits of boating without the maintenance, effort and litany of expenses associated with boat ownership.”
JWJody WinterMember · Concord★★★★★
“Their staff are courteous, friendly and knowledgeable even with those new to boating. They have made lake life accessible to us when it otherwise would be near impossible.”
KGkimberly gilliganMember · Concord★★★★★
“We have been members since they first opened. It is a perfect fit for our family. We make a reservation and head to the dock - the boat is ready with all the toys we requested and a full tank of gas. And when the day is done we just walk away.”
