Really lovely atmosphere and in the summer the vibes are right! Make sure you book ahead and dont forget to book the jet skis or boats they offer with all the fun water sports you can imagine! Plus it has the only gas station on the lake which is a major 5 stars! Love this place & one of the best spots in lake country 100%!

Do not come here, trust me they will scam you and take your money. I fell off my seadoo and they told me it was fine and nothing had gone wrong with it but then I was charged $1500. I asked Andrew, the manager, why I was charged so much and he told me it was to fix the seadoo's intake. This is ridiculous because no intake + labour is nearly $1500. If this was a legit repair he would have sent me an invoice when I asked him, but he failed to provide that as well because it's a lie. I was totally okay with fixing anything had I broke it, but the seadoo's engine turned on and it was functioning fine

We only ever rent from Turtle Bay. We enjoy both Wood Lake & Kal Lake (when we can get there). Boats are always ready on time & relatively clean. Always a great experience!

Located just outside of Kelowna in Lake County. Wayyyy less hectic of a vibe. Both ordering the seadoo and crusin around the lake. Your not going to get as much wake from the boats like you would in higher traffic lakes in greater Kelowna. $125 for an hour on the seadoo, plus gas ($25 for 2seadoos ). The Orange one was slightly worse for wear as it was older. They marked all damages and such before we went out, so no problems. The new ones were the blue and white, which were perfect. Cruise the lake and check out the huge houses I'll never be able to afford. lol Dusk would also be a nice time to
