Large double-deck party boat with guests on deck

The Blue Goose double deck is the default choice when the goal is a high-energy lakeside celebration.

Operators provide a captain and crew, lighting for evening cruises, life preservers and a generator—details that matter when you’re hosting a larger party far from shore.

If your trip from Midlothian centers on a group milestone or a multi-family outing, the Blue Goose minimizes logistics: a single vessel accommodates food service, music and an active swim platform. Note the operator’s strict capacity rules, a required check-in window before departure, and a three-hour minimum; confirm the company’s sunset swim and life-jacket policies when you book.

This experience is adult-focused and designed for small private groups; the operator limits access to ages 18+ and up to 15 guests.

Before you go

Follow posted life-jacket policies and shoreline-distance rules (many operators require staying 100' from shore). Confirm swim-window and sunset restrictions if you plan evening activities.

04
Coordinate logistics and extras

Ask about check-in arrival windows, catering or DJ setup time, fuel or engine-hour billing, and whether pets are allowed so your trip runs smoothly.
