About this Experience
What you’ll do:
You and your group show up at Lake Pleasant, step onto your boat, and spend the day on the water without ever hooking up a trailer.
Pick your boat - Choose a speedboat, pontoon, double-decker slide boat, luxury boat, or full party barge based on your group size and vibe.
Skip the hassle - Your boat is docked and ready when you arrive, no towing, backing down a ramp, or loading gear.
Cruise the lake - Open water and quiet coves give you room to explore Arizona’s largest recreational lake.
Play in the water - Slide off the deck, ride a tube, wakeboard, or float behind the boat.
Set the soundtrack - Connect to the Bluetooth sound system and run your playlist for the whole trip.
However you spend the hours, the day comes down to water, sun, and your group, with none of the setup.
Why we love it for your group:
No towing required - Arrive and board instead of spending the morning hauling a boat yourself.
A boat for every group size - Speedboats seat up to 10, party barges hold up to 22, so the boat matches the headcount.
Built-in water fun - Slides, tubes, wakeboards, and floating mats keep the day moving between swims.
Shade and comfort on board - Canopies and spacious seating give everyone a break from the sun.
Fits any occasion - Birthdays, bachelor and bachelorette parties, reunions, and group trips all work with this format.
