Outing Highlights

THE BOAT

A five‑person Bayliner for a day on the lake

The 19' Bayliner holds up to five people and is offered as a self‑captained rental for 2–8 hours; the boat comes with fuel and life jackets included.

THE RULES

Who can captain — and the captain option

To operate a motorized boat you must have been born before Sept. 1, 1993 or hold a valid Texas boating license; if your group lacks an eligible captain, an operator can provide one for $50 per hour upon request.

THE LOGISTICS

Check‑in, minimum time and weather policy

Management enforces a minimum two‑hour rental, asks renters to arrive 30 minutes early to ensure an on‑time launch, and bases weather cancellations on conditions at the dock; if weather forces an early return you receive a rain check for the unused portion, but once you’ve left the dock refunds are not issued.

What the day feels like

What this day on the water feels like

This is a straightforward, do‑it‑yourself boating day: pick a reservation window of 2–8 hours, show up early, nominate or secure a qualified captain, and spend your time on Lake Conroe enjoying open water, wakes and sun with your crew. The rental includes the essentials — fuel and life jackets — so once you’re off the dock the focus is on time on the water.
