I had a great experience with the dealership. Im new to the boat family and everyone was very informative and made me feel confident about my options. 10/10 team! Especially Gabriella, Ill be back to see her very soon!

This was a fantastic purchase experience. I had visited other dealers and they had good selections also. The difference is the helpful sales staff who went out of their way to make this a great experience. Brad, Joseph, and Gabriela provide for everything we needed during the process and answer any questions we had. Brad was very hands on duro g the process. The service staff was also great. They installed a fuel water separator filter and a trolling motor. They are very knowledgeable and dependent. So what topped the scales on favor of this location? The staff, the caring, concern, and involvement through the process. Our drive to Douglasville was certainly worth it. We have a great boat now!
Jose Dolagaray, Locust Grove, GA -
Great decision we made to purchase our Godfrey Sweetwater For them. Ryan and Joe were great to work with. Had paperwork ready when we arrived. Made for a painless process. Steve and Levi did our orientation on the boat. Well informed and knowledgeable. Had everything we wanted to add to it in stock. And were quick to install it. Very enjoyable experience.
Brett Byrd, Acworth, GA -
I bought a Godfrey sweet water Tri toon with a 200 HP Suzuki. Joseph and everyone at Boathouse were so easy to work with. They went over many options before we made our final decision and we are extremely happy with our new boat. Michelle was awesome helping get the paper work done the day I picked it up.

Purchased a Godfrey Xperience pontoon from Gary and Joseph at A Boat House in Douglasville, GA. Inventory at the time of purchase was very low. We live near Pittsburgh and have a second home on Lake Hartwell. Drove over two hours to buy the boat. Gary and Joseph were easy to work with, professional and kept their commitments. We had a tight timeline for delivery since we had to return to Pittsburgh in a week. Gary and Joseph were very accommodating and rearranged their delivery schedule to meet our needs. Boat was delivered on time as promised. Delivery driver took extra time to cover all details of the boat and answer all our questions. He even took us out on the water to make sure we were comfortable since this was our first boat. All details of the purchase and paperwork were dealt with on site without errors or omissions which was appreciated since we weren't local. Very pleased with our buying experience.

We had a great experience buying our Godfrey Sweetwater from The Boat House. Everyone we worked with was kind and knowledgeable. We ordered a custom built boat. Prices were competitive, and the boat was delivered before the promised date. Gary and Joseph Jr. and the whole team were fantastic. We were given a great orientation on how to break in the motor, how to set up the blue tooth radio, and how to care for the Bimini, upholstery, and operating systems. This is the first place we will go when it is time to buy again!
Claudia Boswell -
Great experience purchasing our new Godfrey pontoon! Joseph was exceptional to work with. Very professional and answered all our questions. We drove 21/2 hours to purchase our pontoon from A Boat House. Well worth our time.

Excellent Avalon pontoon 2480 net with 200 hp Suzuki we absolutely have enjoyed every moment on it. We have taken it out every weekend since buying it. Avalon 24 LS Entertainer Triple Toon
Greg Douglasville, GA -
Overall excellent experience. The entire staff was friendly and helpful. Due to weather and work schedule, we werent able to take the boat out on the lake for about 3 weeks after we got it. The motor didnt seen to be working right so I took it back to the Boathouse where they promptly found and fixed the problem, Excellent customer service! 08 Skeeter SL 210

Joe was great to work with. I was a first time boat buyer and Joe helped me make all the right decisions with the options. I custom ordered the boat with several options and I received the boat on time and exactly as ordered. Avalon Catalina 23 Rear Lounge
Bill Fayetteville, GA -
We purchased an Avalon Windjammer April 2016 and our experience was excellent. I must add that working with Howie as our Sales Rep was just fantastic. Howie made our journey very pleasant and he guided us every step of the process. Its unfortunate that common courtesy has been lost in 21st century sales but He is in a class that far exceeds his contemporaries. Thank you Howie! -Lamar and Lisa Avalon Windjammer 25 Rear Lounge

Joe and Tammy were very informative and attentive to our needs. Apex-Qwest LS 822-24 Cruise
Terry Temple, GA -
I found A Boat House on line. Prices were significantly less that other more local boat dealers. Salesman (Rick) did a great job explaining the various triton options. Educated me about the pros and cons of various options. Mechanic was great. Educated me all about the boat before I left the lot. The only upset to the deal was a mis communication on the repairs for my trade in. After a deal was made, I received a call and was informed the repairs to my boat would be about 1,200. I didnt realize that I wold have to pay for my boat repairs after the deal. I truly do think it was a mis-communication. But it is also important to make sure how much you will be charged for trade in repairs before you make the deal. Overall, I am very happy with my purchase. Even with the $1,200, I feel like it was a good price and it is a quality boat that I tried out yesterday and it was great!!! Jim Radle Avalon 24 LS Cruise

I bought a boat at the Atlanta Boat Show. The entire team from A Boat House was very knowledgeable and very easy to work with throughout the entire process. My new Avalon has been great fun on the lake. The entire family is happy with the Avalon Tritoon. Thank You for a great buying experience. Avalon LS 24-26 Cruise
Robert Suwanee, GA -
Initial purchase over the phone took some negotiating, but worth it. Got a good deal, drove 8 hrs to pick it up. Walk thru and set up was somewhat incomplete. But service after the sale (and working out the kinks) with Gary and Chris were fantastic. This was my first pontoon boat purchase and am very satisfied with A BoatHouse and Avalon at this time. Thanks. Avalon Windjammer 27 Rear Lounge
Patrick , New Orleans, LA -

Very Very pleased all around!!!! Im a resident on Lake Lanier and boat & motor bring great joy to my family! Thanks Joe!!!!! Avalon 23 LS Tri-toon

Plain and Simple; it was great working with Ami and Joe. No high pressure sales tactics and they provided answers when needed; and the boat was spotless when we took delivery. Would also like to give kudos to the rest of the Boathouse team for their part. Qwest 82-24 Splash Pad Tri-Toon
Richard and Kim Sugar Hill, GA -
Thanks to a very Persistent salesman (Paul) he returned my e-mails ,phonecalls and did research on my trade. He called me and let me know there was a boat that came in that was within my price range and what I was looking for, Thanks for Amy & Joe making my purchase easy and painless. 2012 Nitro Z-7
Greg Newnan, GA -
We bought our first boat ever from A Boat House, a 2005 Tahoe Q4, two seasons ago and have not had a bit of trouble with it at all. I am very pleased with the sales and service they have provided and this will definitely be the first place we go to when were ready for an upgrade. I usually do not post comments like this but with the excitement of another season upon us, it has reminded me this if it were not for A Boat House, we would not enjoy the family time and summers as much as we do now. Thanks guys!!!! 2005 Tahoe Q4
Rick Powder Springs, GA -
We to the Atlanta boat show to look around with no intention to buy. After looking into several dealers and boats, I found A Boat House to have a great quality of boats and some of the best prices. I ordered a boat with the salesman making sure all my needs were met. After placing the order, staff members keep me up to date on the progress of my order and had the boat in earlier than I expected. When I picked up the boat I was treated like family. Everything was explained to me about my new craft and upcoming service details. I highly recommend A Boat House if youre looking to purchase a Pontoon boat, or have question on service.

Dave acworth, GA -
After a nationwide search of Avalon pontoon boats, we finally found the boat we wanted. The only problem was that it was located in Georgia and we were in Texas, 1000 miles away. I made contact with Joe concerning the possibility of a long distance purchase and trade in. He said no problem, we do it all the time. My wife and I were still very skeptical about the outcome, but our worries were completely unfounded. In less than 10 days we had the whole transaction completed including the delivery of the new Avalon Catalina and pickup of our trade in. The whole process was handled flawlessly and professionally by Joe and his staff. Many thanks to Amy, Tammy and Chris for their great attention to detail. All the paperwork , title transfers and training was top shelf. My wife and I would highly recommend this fine company to anyone interested in doing business with the best. And. We love our new boat! Our sincere thanks, Joe. Robin and Carole Abilene, Texas Avalon 24 Catalina Entertainer

jeff eddyville, KY -
I purchased a 16 PaddleQwest pontoon in January from A Boathouse. I can confidently say these folks stand behind their word and deliver outstanding service. The boat was promised by end of March (came straight from the factory) and was at my house in Cary March 26 as promised. A Boathouse delivered the boat from Atlanta and was very professional and friendly. We went through operation of the boat and I was on my way. The boat is very well made with nice upholstery and very rugged structure. By the way, the paddleqwest is a pedal powered/ paddle wheel pontoon with electric motor for when you get tired. It moves right along with the pedals but you can switch to electric when you need a break.. very nice for electric only lakes, Feel free to email me with any questions, I highly recommend this boat for electric only lakes.

We met Joe and his lovely wife at the 2012 Atlanta Boat Show. After looking and researching for a year we made our decision to purchase our beautiful 26ft. Avalon Electric Lounger Tri-Toon boat at the 2013 Atlanta Boat Show.. The owners of A Boat House in Douglasville Ga. were awesome. They worked with us and got us exactly what we wanted. They are great friendly people. I highly recommend these folks for any marine products you want. I give them five stars. Avalon C-RL

They are the most honest people in sales that I have ever done buisness with, u will be greeted with a smile and bidded farwell with a smile. A warrenty is only worth the paper its wrote on.

My wife and I purchased a 2000 model fish and ski. We had a miscommunication between the mechanic and myself which caused some engine problems. From the very beginning of our problem to the end Joe treated us great and did everything he could have possibly done to fix our problem. Joe and his wife turned a potential bad situation into a great experience for me and my family. A Boat House has earned my buisness permanantly, and I will be sending all my friends searching for boats to talk to Joe and his wife. 2000 Stratos 283 F/S

The Boathouse is a dealership I will definitely do business with again. Joe and Amy went above and beyond to make our buying experience 5 star. From returning emails and calls while I was shopping for a boat to pre-arranging financing, making the boat ready for pickup the day of, and to staying past closing time to fix the lights on my truck so we could take delivery that day. Dont let the lack of a fancy sales center or big parking lot fool you. They were very well stocked with parts, and had several employees working that day (on a Saturday) to help. While we were working out details of our purchase, there were several couples looking at boats that day from Georgia, Tennessee, and Alabama. I can recommend them for your sales, parts, and service needs and only wish they were located on our lake so we dont have to travel so far to see them. PS: We love our boat . It is everything they promised and we hoped for. 2006 Sea Ray 200 Select

Joe Yates, Owner presented a detailed analyis of the 2012 Avalon DRL at the 2012 Atlanta Boat Show boat and every item he discussed is 100% true, the boat is fabulous. Chris delivered the boat and completed the PDI and was very thorough and helpful and did not rush me at all.. The actual delivery took place on 2-23-12, very warm and windy 3to 4 foot whitecaps at Lake Sinclair as Joe explained the boat ride was as smooth as silk, no porpoising or water splashing into the boat. The entire experience has been great! When buying a pontoon boat, buy a Avalon triple pontoon! 2012 Avalon DRL

My boat search and decision was a long time in coming. The folks at A Boat House (Joe) were very helpful and informative.
