One pickup point for every town
100 Marina Del Ray, Madisonville, LA 70447
This is our Madisonville location and the starting point for every rental. Meet the team here for pickup and checkout.
A little local context
A Madisonville day, with time on the water.
Keep your shore-side plans separate from the approved boating route. Check the rental-area guide and follow current staff instructions.
Madisonville’s Tchefuncte River scenery and waterfront character make it a natural place to plan a Northshore outing. Our rental pickup is at 100 Marina Del Ray—not a public boat launch or an unspecified spot along the riverfront. Use the complete address when arranging your arrival.
A town visit and a rental are separate parts of the day. You can explore Madisonville before or after your outing, but your route on the water must follow Northshore Boating’s current rental-area rules and staff instructions. A nearby landmark on a tourism map does not automatically make it an approved boating destination.
Before you head out
Start with the pickup point, not a route assumption.
Review pontoon, kayak and jet ski categories before sending your request. Tell us your preferred date and rental type; the team follows up about the details. A submitted request is not a confirmed booking, and availability is not guaranteed until the team confirms it.
Before arrival, read the checkout and safety guidance and look over the rental-area map. Weather, water levels and current restrictions can change a plan. Ask the team about the permitted route instead of assuming that every channel or tributary near Madisonville is suitable.
Keep this in your pocket
