A+ Day on Tahoe!
Could not have had a better afternoon on Cam’s boat. Beautiful Cobalt and Cam is such a great host and our crew loved him. We were a party of 7 with 5 kids between 17-19 and a great time was had by all! Highly recommend Cam for a great day on Tahoe!

Hands down the best charter and captain on Lake Tahoe!
Cam has a beautiful boat, great boating skills and is very knowledgeable of the lake and its many attractions. He took us to Vikingsholm to walk around and see the waterfall, cold plunge in the most spectacular clear waters and take in the beautiful mountain scenery. We had a perfect day and will be booking again with Cam in the future!

Thank you Amber! It was an absolute pleasure hosting you all! Hope to see you again later this Summer!

Amazing boat! Amazing tour! Amazing captain!
Absolutely amazing boat tour. I had difficulty finding a charter service that would allow more than six people. I was slightly concerned because we had seven adults and also brought with us a large cooler of food and drinks. The boat was plenty big enough and super comfortable for all of us. Absolutely amazing boat even better captain. This is truly a boat tour that you can decide how to spend your time. Highly recommend.!

Thanks for the awesome review Susan! Your family was a ton of fun! We hope to see you and your family again next year!
