Freedom Boat Club

I've really enjoyed my time in the club! In addition to boating locally, I've used the reciprocating aspect to take out boats in Savannah, Ft. Lauderdale, Destin and other places.

We were members of the Freedom Boat Club for about three years. Over that time I was able to introduce my family to the joy of getting out on the water. As non-boaters, it's kinda of intimidating trying to figure out how to buy a boat, maintaining it, and storing it when it wasn't in use. Freedom Boat Club eliminates all that for you. You make a quick phone call, reserve a time slot, and they have the boat ready for you when you arrive.

They have lots of different kinds of boats to choose from... anything from ski boats to pontoons to fishing boats... even giant cabin cruisers. When you bring the boat back, the awesome dock hands help you dock the boat, and will even get it filled up for you (although you do pay for the gas). We only left the club because we bought a house on the lake with a dock in our backyard. Even though Freedom Boat Club is awesome, having a boat in...

We have loved our membership at Lake Lanier. No surprises and good customer service every time. We were concerned about some of the other reviews we found for franchise locations, but we haven't experienced any issues with the Lake Lanier club.

There's a wide variety of boats to choose from depending on your mood for the day (pontoon, bow rider, deck boats, cabin cruiser, etc.). Boat are well kept and well maintained. Staff is kind and efficient. Reciprocal relationships have worked well. After 3 years, it's been a great experience and we really appreciate the simplicity of the program. There is no better way to boat on the lake!

We moved to Buford Ga. in 2001 and shortly thereafter joined FBC ... all I can say is there is nothing like being on the lake... Grant and his team have been accommodating and professional every step of the way. The club gets new boats every few years, and keeps the boats they have in their inventory in good shape. In all the years we've been members, we have only had 2 times where there was a mechanical problem and in those instances, the problem was taken care of immediately The ability to use my membership at other FBC locations is awesome as we don't have to tow a boat with us when we vacation. Can't wait to get out on the lake this Saturday for our first of many trips this year! Keep up the good work FBC Lake Lanier , and I'll continue to tell my friends about you!

This will be our third year with FBC and we totally love the concept and the folks there. We have recommended the club and have visited several other FBC clubs in the South, thanks to our membership at Lanier.

It is an awesome concept to have available a newer, clean and fully serviced boat available to just turn the key and enjoy a fabulous lake experience..

I have been a member for many years and have loved it. Have recommended others to the club who have joined and also enjoyed being members. This is one of the biggest no-brainers for people who do not boat every day or every week and don't want the hassels of maintaining their own boat.

Each year the club has been getting better and better. Some of the boats have been updated this year. From the office to the dock crew has been the best yet. This year 2013 you get a 5 star. Keep up the great work!

After living in Flowery Branch for nearly 15 years, the boat bug finally bit us. Having a friend who is a member of FBC in the Miami area, I decided to check out FBC Lake Lanier. We were sold very quickly on the concept. After a month of membership, I have to say we have been 100% satisfied, and we look forward to a killer summer (and many beyond) of playing on the lake.

After spending the past year or two on the lake in a friend's boat I knew my family was destined to be on the water on a more frequent basis. I reviewed all the pros and cons of boat ownership and finally committed to joining FBC. Financially, this made so much more sense but a big selling point for me was the variety of boats to choose from. I can take the family skiing one day on a ski or deck boat, take my father fishing another day on one of their "fishing" boats, or bring a couple families out for the day on a pontoon. There are even a couple boats with cabins for my youngest to nap on those long days out on the water. I have only been a member for a short time however these have been the most exciting months for my family in a long time. We are weekend boaters mostly and the kids can't wait to get through the week. Each time we have requested a boat one has been...

This is the REAL DEAL on FBC! I joined the club 13 years ago and was the 14th member to join. I have seen the club grow from 4 boats to 30, from 14 members to 150. I have also seen all the pro's of the club, and all of the con's. I am one of nine members that is on a committee of current members that meets with management to discuss rule changes, procedure changes, etc. We also are asked from time to time to make recommendations on members that abuse the club and its policies. This has given me great insight into the club and reinforced why I am a member and why the club, although great for me and my family, is not for everyone. (1) Boat Availability- I reserve two to three days out and have not had any issues getting boats. When I do call last minute for boats, I am flexible on the boat and the club has also been very accommodating. When I want to boat, almost without...

We have been members at FBC(Lake Lanier) since 2004 and would highly recommend this over owning your own boat. The maintenance fees are much less than it would cost to store or tow a boat yourself. The service at the dock is great. It is so easy to just walk up, put your things on the boat and go. At the end of the day you just pull in the dock, unload your things and that's it. They clean, service and fuel up the boat for you! The reservation system is easy and accommodating. We could not have asked for a better experience.

Worry-free boating is for real...not to mention less expensive, less hassle, and 99.9% pure & simple fun! I have always been able to get out on the water whenever I wanted, and upon excellently maintained equipment. The deckhands are all about ensuring you have a safe, enjoyable time while on the water, and even provide any water toys they may have on hand. Very service oriented owner & staff. Well run business. I have been a satisfied member now for over 10 years.
