Freedom Boat Club Lake George has announced the opening of a second Lake George location in Bolton Landing.
Heading into their ninth summer providing hassle-free boating on Lake George, Freedom Boat Club saw a need to expand their services to meet the growing demand for membership boating. The new location will be located at Water’s Edge Marina, 47 Sagamore Rd, Bolton Landing, which underwent a change in ownership in January of this year. There will initially be five new boats available at the Bolton Landing location in addition to the twenty boats located at their flagship location at Queen Boat Co in Dunhams Bay.
Freedom Boat Club members pay a one-time entry fee and monthly dues to utilize the fleet of boats while the club takes care of purchasing, docking, cleaning, insuring and maintaining the boats.
Owners Matt and Rebecca O’Hara are excited to be offering a new boating experience for members. “We have had a waitlist for membership for years and are thrilled to have the opportunity to add membership capacity in a great new location. Water’s Edge is the perfect launching point for members to explore parts of the lake that were less accessible boating out of our Dunhams Bay location,” said owner Matt O’Hara. “And members will definitely enjoy all that the town of Bolton Landing has to offer before or after their boat outings!”
Members of Freedom Boat Club Lake George will also have reciprocal access on the Great Sacandaga Lake this summer. Adam and Jessica Retersdorf, of Reet’s Marina, will launch Freedom Boat Club of Great Sacandaga Lake with eight boats in their Freedom fleet to supplement their existing dealership, service, and boat rental business.
Commented owner Rebecca O’Hara, “Expanding to a second location that we know members will love has been a goal of ours for years and we are so thankful to have found a partner in Water’s Edge. With more local locations, and over 420 boating destinations around the world, Freedom Boat Club offers unrivaled access to on-the-water experiences! The summer of 2025 is shaping up to be our best yet!”
Improvements at Water’s Edge also include reopening the former deli space, which is being reimagined and is scheduled to open this summer under new ownership.
