BUILT FOR BOAT RENTALS
Your boats. Your rules. One working schedule.
From pontoons to deck boats, organize the details that make a rental day work. Start with your fleet and configure the way you actually rent.
Rental blocks that fit your day
Set pickup times, rental lengths and turnaround buffers. Leave room for fuel, cleanup and the next guest.
Balances beside the booking
See deposits, collected amounts and what is still due. Your payment connection is verified during setup.
Agreements that stay on file
Guests sign your rental agreement online. Keep the signed version with the booking and spot missing paperwork.
A clear handoff at the dock
Check the guest, complete safety checks, send the boat out and record its condition when it comes back.
A familiar face, a useful history
Find previous rentals, contact details and notes in the customer record. Keep each operator’s customer information separate.
Extras in the booking flow
Offer your configured extras with the rental. Shared equipment inventory helps keep available quantities accurate.
Your rental policies, in the flow
Set notice periods, closure dates and cancellation rules. Keep requests and refund work visible for staff review.
A view beyond today’s departures
Review booking and payment totals for your operation. Use date filters and exports to get to the detail.
FROM RESERVATION TO RETURN
From the first click to the final tie-up.
A reservation should carry the details forward. Your team should not have to start over at every step.

OUR LOCAL CONNECTION
Rooted at Possum Kingdom. Built around the work.
Cove Booking grows out of our founder’s connection to the family behind Naylor by the Water at Possum Kingdom Lake. That connection keeps the focus on the details that matter to a real rental operation: boats, guests, handoffs and the next busy weekend.

Kingdom.TEXAS · BOATS · FAMILY · THE DOCK
Naylor by the Water has served the lake since 2005. Cove Booking is a new software business shaped by that local connection.
Can each boat have its own rates and availability?+
Yes. Boats have their own availability and rates, with configured pricing rules, closures and maintenance blocks. We review your rental durations and seasonal rules during setup.
Can I leave time between rentals?+
Yes. Turnaround buffers reserve time between bookings for cleaning, fuel and handoff. Configure them around the way your dock works.
Can guests sign before they arrive?+
Guests can sign the rental agreement online and the signed version stays attached to the reservation. Your team can see when paperwork still needs attention.
How do deposits and damage holds work?+
Cove Booking tracks reservation deposits, balances and refund review. Live payments require a verified processor connection. Automated damage-security holds are not currently supported; we agree on your damage process separately.
What if I already have bookings in another system?+
We review upcoming reservations, collected deposits, customer records and existing website links before agreeing on a move. Reconciliation, a booking rehearsal and a rollback plan come before switching.
Can my dock team use it on a phone?+
Yes. Add Cove Booking to your home screen for a dedicated app window, or use it in your browser. Bookings and messages need an internet connection. Push notifications and offline booking changes are not currently offered.
What is included, and what will it cost?+
Cove Booking software is $400/month with no Cove Booking percentage booking fee. Payment processing is separate. Website work, migration and third-party usage are scoped before you commit.
