What Riders Are Saying

★★★★★ 5.0 — 300+ reviews — Read all on Google

Wakeboarding
★★★★★

"I had never wakeboarded before and I was up and riding within 20 minutes. Aidan was incredibly patient and encouraging. By the end of our 2-hour session I was jumping the wake. Best experience I've had on a boat, period."

Mike T., Greenwich CT
Waterskiing
★★★★★

"Our group of 8 had skiers from total beginners to experienced riders. The captain and instructor managed everyone perfectly — adjusting speed, giving tips, making sure everyone got equal time. Lake Lillinonah was glassy and gorgeous."

Trae M.W., Westchester NY
Tubing & Wakesurfing
★★★★★

"We did tubing for the younger kids and wakesurfing for the adults. I had no idea wakesurfing was a thing and now I'm obsessed. The boat throws an incredible wave. We've already booked our next session."

Sarah K., New Milford CT
Wakeboarding Lesson
★★★★★

"Instructor Aidan was amazing — suitable for all skill levels. Our group ranged from beginners to experienced riders and everyone had a blast. The lake was so calm compared to Candlewood. 10/10."

Cara Mooney
Family Watersports
★★★★★

"Our kids learned to waterski in one session! The instructor was so patient. My 10-year-old was up on two skis within 15 minutes. We'll be back every summer — this is our new family tradition."

The Martinez Family
Waterskiing
★★★★★

"I hadn't waterskied since I was a teenager. Ian and the team got me back up on two skis on the first run. Nostalgic, incredible experience. Connecticut's best kept secret — this lake is stunning."

Dave P., Ridgefield CT

143 West St, New Milford, CT 06776 — West Cove Marina on Lake Lillinonah. Get directions on Google Maps
As long as you're comfortable in the water and can swim, we can teach you. Our crew teaches watersports all day, every day, all ages. Our certified instructors walk you through everything from dock to wake.
A good rule of thumb is 30 minutes per person who wants to try a watersport. Group of 4? Book 2 hours. Group of 8? Book 3–4 hours. You can also mix in tubing for the whole group to maximize your time.
No boating license required — ever. Our licensed captain handles all boat operation. You just show up, gear up, and ride. This is one of the key differences from bare-boat operators who require you to bring your own license.
Absolutely. Our boats carry all equipment — waterskis, wakeboards, a wakesurf board, and a tube. Try everything in one session, or focus on one sport the whole time. Totally up to your group.
All ages welcome. We carry life jackets in every size including infant. Tubing is great for ages 5+ at comfortable speeds. Note: stepping into the watersports boat is about a 1.5-foot step down from the dock.
Non-alcoholic drinks and non-messy foods are welcome. Bottled water is provided. Alcohol and smoking are not permitted on watersports charters.
Well-behaved dogs are welcome aboard. Bring the whole crew.
