Carlton Landing Marina Guide: Boat Rentals, What to Expect & Insider Tips

If you’re planning a trip to Carlton Landing and wondering whether renting a boat is worth it—the short answer is yes. But this guide will help you understand exactly what to expect before you book.

In a recent podcast episode, I sat down with Jeremy Mullen, General Manager of the Carlton Landing Marina, to break down everything from boat rentals to guest experience.

A Family-Owned Marina with a Bigger Vision

The Carlton Landing Marina is operated by Ugly John’s, a multi-generation, family-owned boating business that’s been around since 1974.

What makes this location unique is that it’s not just a marina—it’s designed to enhance the 

. Think of it as an extension of the community, not just a place to grab a boat.

Boat Rentals at Carlton Landing: What’s Available

All boats are newer models (typically under 2 years old), which is 

 standard in the rental world—and makes a big difference in experience.

No boating license is required in Oklahoma.

If you’re nervous, just ask for extra help—they’ll take the time to make sure you feel comfortable.

This isn’t just a “grab the keys and go” situation—they’re intentionally building a better guest experience.

They’re even working toward more concierge-style touches, like helping prep your day on the water.

Half Day vs Full Day: What Should You Book?

A full day gives you flexibility to come and go, take breaks, and not feel rushed.

If you’re visiting during peak times—

Boat rentals are already filling up, especially for larger groups.

What They Learned (and Improved) After Year One

Last summer was their first season—and they learned a lot.

This makes the marina one of the most underrated amenities in Carlton Landing.

Adam and I grew up in Oklahoma, met at OU and moved to Fort Worth, TX after we married. We have 3 amazing teens & have always dreamed of owning a cabin in the woods of SE OK where I grew up. We wanted a place to escape & connect as a family, especially during the teen years when we need a strong family connection more than ever. 

When we stumbled across Carlton Landing & then The Lodge, it felt like home. It's the "cabin" we always wanted, but in the middle of the most family-friendly community that offers all we need to spend quality time with our kids.

Family's that play and laugh together STAY together, so we've stocked The Lodge with all you'll need to have fun at home and around CL. There's always more tasks to complete- I love that CL helps me remember that people matter most. Our time at Carlton Landing has blessed our family more than we ever imagined and we hope it does the same for yours!
