Rent a Boat in Lake Pleasant, Arizona
Just 45 minutes from downtown Phoenix, Lake Pleasant’s 10,000 desert acres invite wake-surf dawn patrols, pontoon party coves, and starlit anchor-outs framed by saguaro-studded hills.
What to know
The most popular rental styles in Lake Pleasant, AZ are:
- Pontoons, double-deckers, and houseboats for floating cookouts, waterslides, and weekend camp-outs in Honeymoon and Cole’s Coves.
- Wake and surf boats for glassy early-morning runs and afternoon tubing near the dam.
If you’re unsure about fluctuating desert water levels or afternoon monsoon winds, hire a captain who knows safe anchorages and launch ramps.
Safety regulations
