Highlights
Outing Highlights
Morning Mimosas on the Water
The morning cruise includes complimentary beverages, with mimosas served exclusively on this outing — a quiet, celebratory way to greet the lake as the day begins.
Glassy Water and Soft Alpine Light
Mornings bring calmer winds, fewer boats, and softer light — conditions that make the lake feel serene and unhurried and provide expansive shoreline views ideal for photography.
A Sail That Moves with the Wind
The sailboat is wind‑powered and the two‑hour public route changes depending on wind strength and direction, so each cruise can offer a different perspective of the shoreline.
