Madison's lakes are for everyone
You don't need to bring equipment or be a master lake navigator to enjoy the water in Madison. Fifty percent of the shorelines in Madison are public and our friends at Brittingham Boats, Wingra Boats, Marshall Boats, Rutabaga and Outdoor UW have made it easy to rent a variety of watercraft for a small price.
Prefer to sit back and let someone else do the driving? Look no further than Betty Lou Cruises, which offers public and private charters six days a week. Or book a pontoon from Madison Boats from the dock of the historic Edgewater Hotel.
