Lake Allatoona · Cherokee, Cobb & Bartow Counties
Custom docks, boat lifts, repairs, and shoreline protection built for Lake Allatoona’s water levels and coves — by the North Georgia family that’s been building docks since 1956.
Martin Docks provides premium dock construction and shoreline services for Lake Allatoona homeowners across Cherokee, Cobb, and Bartow counties — including the lake communities around Acworth, Cartersville, Canton, and Woodstock.
Lake Allatoona is a U.S. Army Corps of Engineers reservoir, which means a dock here has to do two things: hold up to fluctuating pool levels and heavy summer traffic, and meet the Corps’ shoreline rules. Whether you need a brand-new custom dock, a remodel, redecking, or shoreline protection, our team designs and builds for Allatoona’s real conditions — and we’ve been doing it since G.H. Martin built his first dock in 1956.
What we build
Every service is handled in-house by Martin Docks crews who work this shoreline year-round.

Lake Allatoona is managed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, so new dock construction, dock replacement, shoreline work, and major modifications all require permitting under the Corps’ Shoreline Management Plan. Martin Docks builds to Corps standards and guides you through the approval process — so your project starts compliant and stays that way.
Trusted since 1956
G.H. Martin built his first dock in 1956. The company still runs on the same idea — quality work, standing behind it, and treating every lakefront like our own. That’s why customers come back decades later.
