Get to know us

Blue Springs Marina was founded in the 1960s and became very popular up until 2008 when recession caused the business to fail. It was then bought by the Smith family who had a passion for lake life and the great outdoors. Over the years, they gradually expanded the business, adding new RV lots with full hook-ups and a boat service and repair shop. In 2015, they opened a new 5,000 square foot facility to house their indoor storage and boat service operations.

In 2025, after decades of great stewardship by the Smith family, it was acquired by Nick and Victoria Bradfield and will join a diverse portfolio of companies in the Athens area such as Rabbit Hole Studios, Beloved Apothecary, Beloved Forest School, Athena Towing, Rabbit Hole Landscaping, Compostia and Surf's Up Watersports. Today, Blue Springs Marina is a thriving destination for boaters, fisherman, van lifers, RV travelers and TinyHome enthusiasts alike. We're proud to be carrying on a legacy 4 decades in the making.
