    So impressed with this company and service(s). We had the BEST day on Lake Murray. We rented from the Leesville location and were greeted by a few very friendly, helpful young men. There were at least 3 people available to help us move our belongings from the car to the boat. So, right of the bat we were very impressed with the level of customer service. The boat seemed to be maintained and was clean. We chose the double decker 27' boat. One of the attendants took us out for a short distance to go over procedures, boating protocol and answer any questions. This was helpful as it was my husbands first time. It was a little challenging to reach someone when we ran into some trouble, but we did get a call back. Not a big deal. Again, staff was so friendly... we will DEFINITELY be doing this again. Overall terrific experience!!

    Better Boating is our go to for boat rentals! We love the variety of boats and water toys they offer. Their fleets condition is always superior to any other rentals we have tried. BB staff is knowledgeable and always so helpful with life jackets, boat safety and with the review of overall boat. There is simply no other place to rent on the lake!

    Equipment rental is clean and safe , nice area , reasonable prices

    Lake Murray Dam walkway, travel down Lake Murray Blvd will run into it…read more I come here to run occasionally as it is scenic, breezy, straight, and runners frequent. I just started parking on the Irmo side, parking to left of guard house is free. On a weekend I can see this lot filling up quickly it's not a lot of spaces free. I do think this side is more stretching friendly than the Lexington side. Speaking of Lexington side I always parked there with larger overflow lot but there was construction there last time that closed half the spaces. The walkway across dam is wide enough for about three people walking side by side but for runners it can get hard to pass the more populated. I've seen roller skaters out there, strollers, dog walkers although there is no grass only concrete so pick up the doo. The mileage is about 3.4 miles across and back; there isn't any man made shade except the short barrier wall between lake and walkway. If you come during the day will be in full sun so recommend morning or evening for shadier walks/runs. It's an easy run across, is windy certain spots so make sure hat is tight or you will lose it. Worth visiting.

    Beautiful public park next to a dam - today's local adventure. My fur friend Cleo and I were out…read moreand about exploring neighboring cities and happened upon this smaller park area. The lake views are gorgeous! There's a small pier people fish from. Although windy, some people were picnicking in a couple spots. Geese and butterflies greeted us as we strolled by the water for a bit. Was a lovely, relaxing morning in local nature before the storm rolled in.
