About

MarinaMarine Supply Store
Sunrise Cove Marina is named for the stunning views and surroundings, especially against the morning sunrise. A quiet cove tucked away on Lake Lanier, the Marina rests on 62 sprawling acres of beautiful timberland countryside, with an abundance of wildlife presence. A selection of slips is available with 626 opened, covered and PWC slips. Sunrise Cove is located a short distance away from the square of downtown Gainesville, which offers a wide variety of restaurants, boutiques, entertainment, and a vibrant downtown nightlife on a smaller scale. Sunrise Cove is also only four exits north of Mall of Georgia, one of the largest shopping malls in the southeast. Whatever, you’re in the mood for, you will find it close from your lake retreat from home.

    The most special place on Lake Lanier! Sunrise Cove is an absolute gem, filled with some of the best people you are ever going to meet. The marina is a peaceful, park-like setting that you are just not going to find at some of the more commercial properties on the lake. The property is also very secure with a gate at the front entrance and a friendly guard. Rental pontoons and deck boats were added this year. They were clean, maintained, and fairly priced. A great way to spend a day on the water. Janice, the general manager, cares deeply about making things right for her boaters. This shows in her staff, including friendly Rosalyn in the office, and Ed, Brandon, and Reily out maintaining the docks. I highly recommend this marina as the best place to float your boat on the lake!

    This is a nice, quiet marina. There are people living full time here and they all seem very friendly and helpful. This is one of the cheapest marinas on the lake and the staff is very friendly as well.... The docks are a little outdated, but they are currently updating things dock by dock and relocating customers while in process, with the option to move permanently or come back to the new docks at the ae rate. So not bad at all! The process seemed very fair to their current customers.. So all in all, a very nice, and affordable place to keep your boat! And very diverse as they can accommodate large house boats, to small boats as well as sail boats which was great!

    This marina is a hidden gem. You can really tell this marina works with nature, not against it! The employees and dockmates are like family. The view from our boat is stunning. I recommend this marina for people looking for fun, but also want to absorb the beauty of Lake Lanier.
