Want to create a Lake Anna vacation experience to remember? You can maximize your Air B&B profit while creating an inviting and functional dock area that caters to a wide range of visitors… including your own! From comfort and relaxation to safety, convenience and entertainment… here are some must-haves to consider for your lakefront property:

Comfort and Relaxation

Hammocks: Dock hammocks provide a cozy and luxurious spot to unwind, allowing guests to relax over the water and enjoy the breeze.

Chairs: Adirondack chairs are a classic choice for lakeside docks. Though not as weather-resistant as polyethylene benches, they offer comfortable seating options.

Shaded Areas: Offering protection from the sun enhances the appeal of your dock. Planting trees or setting up shades and umbrellas can provide much-needed shade, allowing guests to enjoy the dock comfortably for extended periods.

Safety and Convenience

Solar-Powered Lights: Installing solar-powered lights along the dock provides subtle illumination without the need for additional electricity. These lights charge during the day and automatically light up your waterfront at night, adding a worry-free, soft glow to your deck.

Security Curbing: High-contrast security curbing highlights dock edges, preventing accidents by clearly defining boundaries and enhancing safety.

Storage: Weather-resistant storage boxes can be permanently mounted to withstand harsh conditions, keeping towels, life jackets, fishing equipment, and other accessories organized and safe.

Fishing Rod Holders: These holders provide convenient, hands-free storage for fishing rods, making it easy for guests to enjoy fishing without hassle.

Storage for Life Vests: Designated storage for life vests and personal flotation devices ensures safety equipment is easily accessible and well-organized.

Entertainment and Activities

Built-In Speakers: Weather-resistant wireless speakers allow guests to enjoy music, podcasts, and audiobooks while on the dock. Connecting them to a wireless sound system ensures flexibility and easy control.

Outdoor Projector or TV: Setting up a weatherproof outdoor projector or TV allows for movie nights and watching sports on the dock. Protective covers keep these devices safe year-round.

Water Activities: Adding dock slides, floating trampolines, and diving boards creates a fun environment for guests. Durable and water-resistant installations ensure safety.

Games: Activities like horseshoes, ladder toss, and cornhole provide extra entertainment options, fostering a lively and social atmosphere. Ensure your dock has plenty of tables and seating for card games and other activities.

Advanced Dock Features

PWC and Boat Ports: Low maintenance, slip-resistant ports make it easier to dock and launch watercraft, allowing guests to spend more time on the water. Multiple rollers enable quick and effortless loading and launching.

FShaped Docks: These docks feature long “fingers” extending from the main dock, facilitating easier boat docking while reserving the main section for walking and recreation.

Wide Platforms: Spacious dock platforms accommodate various activities, providing ample room for slides, games, and relaxation. Large, rectangular platforms offer versatile spaces for different dock uses, ensuring guests have plenty of room to enjoy their time by the water.

An attractive, functional dock leads to increased bookings and maximized income potential. Invest in your dock, and watch your guest satisfaction—and profits—soar.

Hi! I’m Jennifer Bailey and I partner with entrepreneurs who have massive ideas that could change the world. Most marketing is meaningless. Filled with empty promises, its only job is to bring in new traffic, new leads, and new customers. But I’ve drawn a line in the sand, and I’ve learned that marketing can do so much more than reach business goals and build profit. My methods give businesses the fire and soul they need to reach the right people, set the groundwork for sustainable relationships, and offer true value to the people on both the giving and receiving ends of marketing.
