Roy's Marina at Clarks Point in Geneva has been putting people on Seneca Lake for years, and the 2025 Gold for Best Boat Rentals — plus Silver for Best Marina the same year and Silver for Boat Rentals in 2024 — validates what every summer visitor to Geneva eventually discovers: this is the easiest, most reliable way to get out on the biggest Finger Lake without owning a boat.

The rental fleet covers the full spectrum of on-water experiences. Pontoon boats for family cruises and sunset wine-tasting trips. Kayaks and paddleboards for the fitness-minded and the Instagram crowd. And for serious anglers, Roy's offers fishing charters targeting the lake trout and salmon that make Seneca Lake one of the best fishing destinations in the Northeast. The range means everyone from a couple on a romantic afternoon to a group of buddies on a fishing trip can find exactly the right vessel.

Roy's position at the northern end of Seneca Lake, in Geneva, puts renters within easy reach of both the western and eastern shore wine trails, the lake's deepest water, and the best fishing grounds. The marina operation itself — docking, fuel, launch access — adds a layer of convenience for boat owners who want a home base. But it is the rental program that makes Roy's genuinely special: it democratizes Seneca Lake, giving visitors who arrive without a boat trailer the same access to the water that lifelong residents enjoy.
