A day on the lake, built for camps
A focused watersports program on Lake Hopatcong, set up for camp groups. Our dock, fleet and day-of flow are organized around camp bookings — from 15 up to 100 campers. Tubing for the full group on wake boats and a pontoon or two, run in fast rotations so every camper gets equal time on the water.
Who we host
A new lineup of camps every summer
Every season we run watersports days for a rotating roster of groups from across North Jersey — town rec departments, private day camps, youth organizations and religious camps. Some are first-timers; plenty come back year after year and lock their week before the summer even starts. However your camp runs, we've built a day around it.
Day camps
Full-group watersports days, 15–100 campers, run like clockwork.
Town rec & youth groups
Community programs and youth organizations — buses welcome right at the dock.
Returning partners
Many camps rebook the same week every year. Ask about a standing date.

The main event
Tubing, all day long.
Tubing is what makes a camp day. No skill, no learning curve — hold on and scream. Every boat runs tubes, drivers rotate riders fast, and the deck turns into a cheering section between turns. Three campers on the tube at a time, then straight into the next rotation. The campers who swear they're "just watching" always end up in line.
How it works
From inquiry to everyone riding
Tell us your group
Camp name, group size, preferred dates and any dietary needs. We send a firm quote within one business day.
We build the day
Boats are assigned by group size — one boat per ~10 campers at $290 per boat, per hour. Our full fleet of five puts 50 campers on the water at once; bigger groups run in staggered waves across the day, up to 100 campers.
A 2-hour session
Typically 5–6 rotations per boat, each camper getting ~4–5 minutes on the tube — the math comes out to about 20 minutes of water time per camper over the session.
Everyone rides
Drivers rotate riders quickly while the group cheers from the deck. The energy stays high, no one sits out.
Our fleet
The whole fleet, out for your group
Big groups need boats in the water, not a line on the dock. We run up to five boats the same session — MasterCraft wake boats plus a Sport Tritoon or two — so campers are riding, not waiting their turn.
24ft MasterCraft
Our biggest boat — the roomiest ride for tubing.
2× 22ft MasterCraft
The camp-day workhorses — tubing for the whole group.
Sport Tritoon
Tubing & cruising — 1–2 every camp day.
Plus 2× Bow Riders on request. Each boat takes up to 10 campers at $290 per boat, per hour — the full fleet of five puts 50 on the water at once, and we run bigger groups in waves up to 100 campers a day.
"The kids couldn't stop talking about it on the bus ride home — and our counselors loved that everyone got equal turns. We're already on the calendar for next summer."
"Excellent experience. Cameron is knowledgeable, entertaining and a gracious host. He knows the history of the lake too, which made it even more fun. Highly recommend for family or friends. A+++"

Common questions
Youngest camper for tubing?+
Age 6+, comfortable in a life vest. Younger campers ride along on the boat.
Do campers need to swim?+
All riders wear USCG-approved life vests; comfort in the water helps, strong swimming isn't required.
What if a camper doesn't want to go?+
No pressure — they stay on the boat with their group. Most join in after watching their friends.
